What are the charts forecasting for 2011?

When I initially started out on Technical Analysis, I would see how seasoned chartists like Michael Kahn, Goola Warden and Daryl Guppy read the charts. So, I am excited that Daryl Guppy will be sharing his views on the stock market outlook for Singapore investors in 2011 very soon.

ADVERTORIAL

AIMS AMP Capital Industrial REIT: Firm support.

The last time I blogged about this REIT was on 29 Dec and I mentioned the rising MACD. This is still valid today. The MACD is rising gently and seems on the verge of crossing into positive territory. With the longer term 100d and 200d MAs both rising, it would seem to be a matter of time before the resistance at the 50dMA is taken out. This is at 22c.

The MFI has been forming higher lows and would be testing 50% once more. If it overcomes this, it would mean an expansion in volume at the current price of 22c or higher. This is one counter that has very limited downside and a nice probability of trading to 25c (for an 8% yield). In the meantime, at 22c, its distribution yield is about 9.1%. I am accumulating.

Raffles Education: Sold at 27.5c resistance.

On Monday, 3 Jan 2011, I mentioned "Raffles Education is rebounding in earnest. The MACD broke out of its downtrend and is rising while the MFI and RSI show positive momentum. OBV shows accumulation. Immediate resistance at 26c.  This is followed by 26.5 which is where we find the declining 50dMA. The most formidable resistance is probably provided by the 100dMA which is at 27.5c. The last time price tested the 100dMA was on 21 Sep 2010. For anyone looking to reduce exposure, selling at resistance in a downtrend is conventional wisdom."

Today, Raffles Education broke out of its downtrend which coincides with the declining 50dMA at 26.5c. This was on the back of higher volume. Closing at 27.5c is at resistance provided by the declining 100dMA. An intra day high of 28c was achieved, however, and if volume continues to expand with an upward push in price, the next significant resistance level is at 30c, which is where we find the declining 200dMA.

Could I have been too hasty in selling off my money losing position initiated a couple of months ago? I do not know but I recognise that, downtrend notwithstanding, the 100dMA has been the limit of any rebound the counter has staged for the last 12 months. Could it be different this time? Of course, it could be but this being purely a trade, I chose to follow conventional wisdom.

Tea with AK71: Uncles fight on SBS bus.

I thought this only happens in Hong Kong.



I think I have taken the same bus service from Orchard Road to Chinatown before. I remember that the bus was mostly filled with senior citizens. I would never have thought such a scene probable.  Really, I mean these are not teenagers from 369, right? Does SBS have a service number 369?
