MATH: Momentum Anticipation and Trend by Homma:
Link to the last MATH article: Click the link
As technical traders, We
“Anticipate, but confirm. Wish, but only react.”
Trend:
Although we are still trending up, trend intensity decreased last week.
We are again around the 50% mark from where we bounced last time around.
Hence we wait and watch for the bounce. (But confirm)
Momentum:
Sideways momentum, but positive.
However, the ADX momentum plot shows a fish hook structure which could suggest that momentum might pick up. Also notice that we are at the same level from where we did bounce the last time around.
N50:
Tried breaking out of the range (slight positive slope. this adds a bullish bias).
N500:
Tried breaking out of the shakeout day high, but was unsuccesful.
Net4% Movers:
Still printing positive numbers, therefore still holding a bullish Bias.
Anticipation:
I have a bullish bias for the week.
But as we are overextended, a pullback or some consolidation inside the range (marked) will not surprise me. Therefore, a tough environment for swing traders will also not surprise me.
I still anticipate sector specific moves.
Summary:
Strongest (short term and medium term):
The strong remains strong and some of them becomes even more stronger. Let this be a big learning for you all.
Therefore.
This week I will be on the lookout for strength from the following sectors:
Railways-Shipping-Defence
PSUs (in general)
IT (all caps) - Pharma -FMCG
Fertilizers
Recycling
Batteries
PS: IT is a new Breakout {so is Pharma (slightly early) and FMCG}.
A good entry on these groups would be great positional trades.
One might also find their Index-ETFs lucrative.
