ASX 200 @ 27 SEP 2021Text me if you have any questions/comments for me. ----- 27 SEP 2021 – Market Watch As mentioned in last night’s livestream, the ASX 200 is currently trading in No Man’s Land. This is a zone where it is trading in a band that is bounded by a strong resistance (7400 levels) and strong support (7250 levels). Usually, when an index or stock is stuck in No Man’s Land, there needs to be a strong catalyst to break either the resistance/support. With the markets still feeling the unease stemming from Evergrande’s missed interest payment last Thursday and the continued lack of clarity on the US Fed’s tapering plans, I fear we might continue to be stuck in this tight band (blue shaded zone) for at least the coming week. The best-case scenario is if there is a successful push to 7500 levels and beyond. If it happens, I would be more bullish on the market. As it is, I am more trigger happy when deciding to trim positions. If Evergrande somehow presents a huge contagion effect at a global level similar to Lehman Brothers, the ASX 200 will likely drop to possibly even break 7150 levels. 88% of my stocks are green today. How about you? If you find this market analysis helpful, let me know in the comments. May the markets continue to be with us!

Where to for the XJO - is it time to go short?I note that there is a lot of noise in the financial media currently around potential collapses in the Chinese property market and various other factors, but let's screen that out and have a look at what the XJO chart is showing. From the chart, it looks reasonably apparent that a downtrend has started forming, starting from the most recent high of 13 August. The chart shows that following the open on 14 August, the market failed to make a new high and started trending downwards for the following week. Fairly solid resistance was then found at around 7460 on 19 August with several retests until around 9 September (between these dates the market seemed to be trading in a fairly tight 60 point range). On 9 September the support level was broken and for the following week or so (until 17 September), the previous support level providing resistance, with another support offered around 7360 (the close on 9 September). Today's movements seem to pretty clearly break through that resistance, but we'll need to see what tomorrow brings to see if there is confirmation of the breakdown. Other things that I note on the chart are the 20 and 50 day MAs. To me, it looks like the 20 day MA will likely cross the 50 day in the next day or so (a bearish indicator in my view). All in all, for me it's not wholesale shorting time until the 200 day MA is broken at around 7000, but there may be opportunities in the short term if you're looking for them. So in summary what visible to me on the chart * A clear downtrend indicated by both MA slopes and a pattern of Lower Highs and Lows * Two clear breakdowns from ranges, with support flipping to resistance. * MA crosses likely.

Trend breakI'm not a technicals person. Pulled the chart up and threw a regressession trend over the ASX200 since the bottom of COVID selloff. The trend was broken nearly this exact time last year, and was followed by dip buying. Happened again (though not on RSI oversold) in late October. I believe there is a running theory around option expiry causing dips, but also general bearishness around this time of year which has historically been tough for equities. Add to that an iron ore price collapse and China debt fears and one wonders whether the dip buyers will return to save the XJO. No position, dont invest based on macro or technicals.

ASX 200 @ 20 SEP 202120 SEP 2021 – Market Watch As predicted in last night’s livestream, the twin US events (ie. Last Friday’s Quadruple Witching Hour and the upcoming FOMC meeting) are dragging markets down this morning. At market close, the ASX 200 is down 2.1% to test the 7250 support levels created in July 2021. As mentioned last week, 7150-7250 levels (purple lines) will be a support zone for the index. Any break of this zone will also coincide with a structure break. We will have a better gauge on the Fed’s decision whether to taper by Thursday morning. If the Fed does decide to taper, I foresee a drop to potentially 6900 levels (orange line). If the Fed postpones the key decision to November’s meeting, we should be able to see an immediate challenge of 7400 levels again with a potential of even possibly re-testing all time high levels. This would also depend on how China deals with the Evergrande problem and whether there will be a shock to its financial systems. Some analysts have likened the Evergrande issue to the Lehman Brothers issue back in 2008 that precipitated the Global Financial Crises (GFC). I’m not super familiar with Evergrande but I don’t think there will be as big an impact to the world markets. There are three main reasons for my thinking: - (i) China has been reigning in their financial markets since the 1st half of 2021. Thus, there worldwide exposure isn’t as large as before. (ii) Even before the reigning in, China’s markets were not as big and open as the US. (iii) Since the GFC, all the big financial institutes have been forced (through regulation) to beefed up their financial reserves. Even with the Covid pandemic crash in March 2020, most financial institutes held strong and were not severely impacted like they did during the GFC. In terms of my strategies in the market, I will wait to see what happens this Wednesday (US trading hours) and that will guide what I do in the market. It’s too soon to engage bearish strategies. There might be short-term opportunities to short but from my experience, it’s better and safer to trade based on what I see, rather than what I feel. What do you think? Are you out of the markets completely? Or is this a juicy time to pick up undervalued stocks? If you find this market analysis helpful, let me know in the comments. May the markets be with us!
