Analysis on SET INDEX: New low with weak momentumHi all,
Long time no see,
SET INDEX make a new low and confirmed.
The nearest target will be 1293 where it then might push up to look like a turnaround again.
Aside from a few stocks with stand strong, it is better to cut some or cut all to see where it went down.
From my perspective only a few stocks are standing firms e.g. new 2 IPOs, elect, and food exporter.
Best of Luck

Analysis on SET INDEX: big picture still short biasDear all
Currently
In the very big picture, SET INDEX is still in retracing phase.
If 1350 is broken down, we will see around 1200-1265.
In the smaller time frame, it can bounce to reach 1430 first before broken down 1350.
So, in case that it really come to 1430, if cannot break up or flow did not come in.
It will be the time to sell and cut loss before anything happen.
For trading individual stocks, just follow your stop loss level.
Best of luck,

The Final StandThe Thai economy faces considerable uncertainty as China descends into recession, compelling it to inundate the Thai market with its highly competitive industrial products in pursuit of external expansion at any cost. This aggressive strategy threatens to push Thai industries to their limits.
For an extended period, policymakers in Thailand have relied shortsightedly on the tourism sector and Chinese foreign direct investments to fuel GDP growth. However, this dependence on China as a growth engine has proven to be a miscalculation, leaving Thailand in a precarious position. Instead of aligning with the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) years ago, Thailand opted to join the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP), a decision seen as counter to TPP interests. This choice, coupled with the liberalization of its borders to a surge of Chinese goods, has exacerbated Thailand's trade deficit with China, which now stands at $36 billion and continues to grow. For each billion-dollar increase in this deficit, a corresponding $10 billion damage to local industries is anticipated, as these entities struggle unprotected in an unregulated market.
Thai bureaucrats harbor concerns that partnership with the United States would lead to the dismantling of Thailand's unique Lese Majeste law, fearing that American influence might fuel protests and efforts to undermine the Thai monarchy in favor of establishing a more Western-friendly government susceptible to external intervention. Consequently, Thailand has chosen to align with what it perceives as the emerging Chinese world order. China's substantial investments in infrastructure projects, under the guise of its Belt and Road Initiative, aim to 'connect' China with Thailand, facilitating the free movement of goods and people between the two nations. While this arrangement might seem beneficial, especially in terms of boosting tourism revenue, the sustainability of such income is questionable. Moreover, it is worth noting that the ownership of hotels and land, significant beneficiaries of the tourism boom, increasingly lies in the hands of wealthy Chinese investors.
Upon considering the broader context, this scenario aligns seamlessly with China's strategic ambitions, particularly its contentious claims over the South China Sea. By securing infrastructure projects and establishing a foothold in Southeast Asia, China aims to legitimize its territorial assertions. The hospitality and manufacturing industries in Thailand are under threat, not only due to China's expansion but also due to Vietnam's emergence as a viable manufacturing alternative. This situation underscores the fundamental challenges facing the Thai economy, including significant demographic hurdles.
In essence, Thailand is experiencing a modern form of invasion by China, characterized by economic and strategic dominance rather than military confrontation. This subtle yet effective approach reflects the principles of Sun Tzu's Art of War: "The highest victory is defeating the enemy without even fighting".
Thailand may soon find itself significantly influenced by China, potentially to the extent of adopting a China-backed currency as its official medium of exchange, thereby compromising its independence and economic sovereignty.
Downgrade = BullishThe Foreign Instituions have started releasing downgrades for Thailand. This is perfect time for them to create scary scenarios and enter in early themselves. Thailand is highly dependent on foreign investors. This could highly possible be a start of a new investment era. I have personally been bullish since November last year after SET came into the MONGHTLY FVG. This can be good time to accumulate. However do also manage your risks properly. This is not a buy sell reco. SET:SET
Analysis on SET: Test selling forceDear All
Currently, it starts to do the consolidation.
No surprise because it has been up for quite sometime.
Here are the levels for looking to buy.
1. Around 1400-1410
2. Around 1370-1380
Even if it went back down to those level,
As long as it did not make the new low, your bias should remained upward.
Best Regards,
