ASX

ASX 200 drills lower thanks to commodity stocksAustralia’s main share index, the ASX 200, closed lower on Wednesday by 0.5%. This fall could have been a lot worse If not for technology and financial stocks mitigating the rout in other major Australian sectors. Australian Securities Exchange’s Metals & Mining Index fell by a massive 5.6%. Heavyweights in the mining sectors, Rio Tinto (ASX: RIO), Newcrest Mining (ASX: NCM), and Fortescue Metals Group (ASX: FMG) lead the way, falling by 7.4%, 6.6%, and 4.9%, respectively. The ASX Energy Index also declined by 5.8% as crude oil prices plummeted 9% overnight Tuesday. Two of the most significant index drivers, Woodside Energy (ASX: WDS) and Whitehaven Coal (ASX: WHC), slumped by 6.9% and 3.7%, respectively. Virus and lockdown concerns appear to be the main factors suppressing commodity and energy stocks in Australia. Domestic tech stocks did briefly push the ASX 200 into green territory intraday but were ultimately overcome by the strong headwinds of commodity stocks. The big tech winner of the day was Zip Co (ASX: ZIP), rising by a phenomenal 12.8%. Financials were also up by 0.9% as three of the "Big-four" seek to benefit from the Reserve Bank of Australia lifting its benchmark interest rate by another 50-basis points. On the technical side, we can see on the daily chart that the ASX200 has been on a clear downtrend since April. The index is currently moving in a tight range between 6700 and 6560. A break above the resistance at 6700 could potentially retest the 6810-level area, creating a lower high of the downtrend before continuing to the downside. In consideration of the long-term scenario, a close below 6560, depending on market sentiments, could eventually drive the index down to the 6000 psychological support level. The ASX 200 might struggle to maintain short-term upside movements. At least until China moves past its Covid concerns and lockdowns in the country no longer threatens to sideline its commercial operations and consumer demand.

VR1NEWS CAT 30 Jun - Good sales update min TCV of $19mil cash in bank. Lower volume play so caution is key here. Not my fav setup as the candles are not full and kinda gappy which kinda indicates its thinly traded. Option A or Option B.. The trigger is a breakl of falling resistance line and confluence is the stock getting back above vwap, 10 day ema on 5min chart also a reclaim of the "RL" range low marked on the chart. It could also fall to crap but im not interest until we break falling res. trade safe..

LLLCurrently in price discovery and the Volume on this is decent. Nice full bodied candles on lower timeframes means is being actively traded. I looking for a retest of the original breakout marked in blue range "LTRH and "LTRL" lower timeframe range high and lower time frame range low. A break above the falling resistance line will be key trigger, i may bid the LTRL range low with tight stops if we get a flush down. Another trigger will be a break of falling res line and reclaim of the upper range LTRH. Let see what next weeks brings. lithium stocks are rebounding which bodes well for the thesis.

ASX Extremely Oversold Friday Afternoon Short SqueezeLooking for sellers to take profit and bargain hunters to squeeze this heavily sold Australia stock index into the close Friday or for Pop higher Morning if US stocks can Bounce. In large sell offs Friday are profit taking days for sellers and this naturally causing some buying as they close short positions and in the fallout there are some stocks that are bought on dips that help the whole index rally. Some good news would help but technically its sets up some excellent 3-1 and 5-1 risk rewards. easyMarkets Account on TradingView allows you to combine easyMarkets industry leading conditions, regulated trading and tight fixed spreads with TradingView's powerful social network for traders, advanced charting and analytics.

Long Santos #STO #ASX # ASX200 # Trading #breakoutHi all, An ascending triangle is classified as a continuation chart pattern. Continuation patterns are expected to lead to the continuation of an existing trend. While the ascending triangle is considered a bullish continuation pattern, exceptions are quite possible. It’s not infrequent to see it develop in downtrend conditions. Breakouts can also happen in both directions. Statistically, upward breakouts are more likely to occur, but downward ones seem to be more reliable. Price is in an interesting area here. Strong resistance around 8.4 Depending on your strategy offers a great RR. Regards,

ASX200 support remains from 6910Hi all, this morning, it's hard not to notice 6910 support on the ASX200 daily chart. Sellers once again breached the level but have again been unable to hold the break with buying developing in today's cash session. We see this level as key support as it has held firm since April 2021. Green circles show the amount of times sellers have been unable to break the level since April. Interestingly, we've seen four moves higher after a level test. Today's idea is not a buy or a sell, it's more of a heads up. We will be watching this level to see if any further ideas develop.

FLT:ASX The current situationA friend owns FLT . He was looking for some information as to whether he should hold (without disclosing his entry price), so here's my explanation. Note : It makes it a lot easier to 'tell someone whether they should hold or sell' if I know the entry price. Why? Because trading profitably is about consistently cutting your losses quickly, and holding on to (or even doubling down during a pull back buy opportunity) your winners. If you do just that right, you can win with a very low ratio (E.g. Picking only 40% calls, correctly etc.) The case for: FLT's price is currently above it's 55 EMA (my favourite EMA to use - see orange line), and we're talking MONTHLY EMA. It's also just breaking out, and holding (so far) above the downwards trend line. Furthermore, during this blood bath going on (for many many stocks, ASX or not), it's holding above it's upward diagonal trend line. If you look at the 55 Monthly EMA, and both trend lines mentioned above, you'll notice that as long as the price holds above ~$17.60 approximately, it's still a HOLD (if in already). Would I be actively buying here? Depends. If there's nothing else to buy, maybe take a small pilot position here, however given the VIX is peaking and the entire market is a bit crazy, it's hard to tell. Fibonacci levels* = DEF do not hold under $16.00. High risk of strong support there that, if breached? GNITE Some questions (and risks) to fundamentally consider: Could there be further international lockdowns? This would be bad (unless FLT focuses on local and domestic travel, which may be allowed) Petrol prices' effects on flights and operating costs? If Ukraine/ Russia war continues, as well as other issues, and petrol keeps going up = this could be bad Recession risk? If people are losing jobs (Carvana for example, even though the car market is ridiculous = can't get stock. So what do they do? Lay off people and buy online auction platform.**) they're less likely to take holidays for obvious reasons. *Fibonacci levels drawn, using 'all time high' price and 'all time low' price (this is how I draw my fibonacci levels - they stay objective this way, and are applicable whether you're looking at a normal chart or log chart - so that's good!) **This is why I refused to sell EVAuctions and other car domain names I own btw (for anyone who knows me and is reading this LOL). I saw this coming. Thanks for reading! [ Tendie.com coming soon ]
