CapitaMalls Asia: Plague, no more?

CapitaMalls Asia has broken out of its downtrend, closing at $1.92, two bids above resistance at $1.90. Volume increased as price strengthened.

We see a buy signal on the MACD histogram as both the MFI and RSI bounced off 50% support. OBV has turned higher, suggesting increased accumulation. More upside is likely.

The next resistance is a band between $1.95 and $1.98, as defined by the upper Bollinger, the candlestick resistance of end December 2010 and the descending 50dMA. Successfully overcoming this resistance band could see price going higher to where we find the 100d and 200d MAs.  These are now at $2.08 and $2.10 respectively.

Saizen REIT: Golden crosses.

In technical analysis, some look out for the true golden cross which is the 100dMA crossing the 200dMA, going upwards. This is said to be more significant than the 20dMA or the 50dMA crossing the 200dMA as it signifies longer term strength in a counter's price moving upwards.

For Saizen REIT, the 100dMA seems on track to forming a golden cross with the 200dMA although it could be another couple of weeks before it is clearer. That there has been gradual accumulation since mid November 2010 is quite clear from the OBV. The MFI and RSI are above 50% but not overbought. Price could move higher in a nascent uptrend but it could be quite gradual as well.
