APN trade ideas
Aspen trade plan long termAspen looking very promising. Before the great news published today Aspen has had very good steady recovery over the months making this a good stock to hold long term. It’s currently met resistance at R 155 but off the foot of the coved breakthrough there’s a good chance we will have another very positive open tomorrow. If we open at a negative we can expect a rebound not so far from current price at R 150.

Our last long on APN was at 11400c. The price ran up into 15511c and has since breached the incline support. Now below the 8-EMA, I’m expecting some continued short term pressure. My model says medium term and long term strength, so instead of suggesting a ‘sell/short’ I’d wait for a pullback into 12000c-12300c for a fresh accumulation. This is another ‘breakdown and back-test’ chat play. Short term money flow is declining while RSI is rolling over.
Aspen close to breakoutUpdate from 20 May Aspen post, I indicated that Aspen looks enticing for a further move higher. My view remains. Today Aspen closed above the 20 MA on current resistance of +/-14060. It probably will first move lower tomorrow to support before attempting to break resistance early next week. This is key resistance of the neckline of an inverse head and shoulder formation that started on 7 March.
Target 1 : 15733 | Target 2 : 17219
Stop at 12300.
Longer term target should share trade above 50 day EMA , possibly 28063. Nice gap fill from Target 2.

JSE:APN Aspen at Important PointAspen is at an important decision point. It is a level of previous volume at R140 where selling occurred. We have been following the stock signs of strength (see posts below). The relative strength is good and volume is increasing as price increases. However, the volume push is declining. The stock still looks strong but we may see a pause at this level. However, a clean break could result in a quick move higher.

Stop at 12300.

Technical Flash Note: Aspen Pharmacare APN Technical Flash Note: Aspen Pharmacare APN
For those waiting on the Aspen Pharmacare to make a meaningful move, the wait has been frustrating to say the least. After spending 3 months between mid-November 2019 and mid-February 2020 trading in a tight range between 10800c and 12500c, we saw the share price roll over to take a hit along with the rest of the market as fears of the Coronavirus gripped global markets. From a low of exactly 8000c, we have seen the share price make a recovery to regain the 10800c level - one that has acted as both support and resistance over the medium term.
Adopting a longer term horizon, the price looks poised to break out of a sideways to downward trending base and above the downward trend line which has capped upside over the last 18 months. For bulls to remain active, we would like to see 11000c remain support. On a higher time interval, a break and close above 12563c opens the road to 14178c and 15343c. As per the weekly chart, the RSI trading with a bullish bias at a 54 print, which is also pointing higher. A review of the monthly chart also sees a positive development with the RSI breaking the downward trend line resistance going back to January 2015.
