Technical Analysis – Pinterest stock’s upside rally is fading, still bullish in medium term

Posted on September 17, 2020 at 12:47 pm GMT

Pinterest’s stock has been moving sideways above the Ichimoku cloud over the past two months, but in the medium-term picture it is still holding an upward direction, having printed a fresh record high of 39.31 on September 2. According to the MACD, positive momentum is fading as the indicator seems unable to climb back above its red signal line. The RSI is turning to the downside in the bullish zone, backing this view as well. In the positive scenario, where the price continues to expand above today’s [..]

Technical Analysis – UK 100 index struggles beneath cloud and negative trend line

Posted on September 14, 2020 at 1:49 pm GMT

UK 100 stock index (Cash) appears to be gradually fading below the very short-term descending line and the Ichimoku cloud. The flattened blue Kijun-sen line promotes a fairly sideways picture in the price, while the capping 50- and 100-day simple moving averages (SMAs) and the cloud’s lower surface suggest negative tensions may intensify in the index. That said, the upward sloping red Tenkan-sen line is reflecting current price attempts to develop further, while the RSI is climbing above its neutral [..]

Technical Analysis – US 30 index under negative strain; broader positive picture challenged

Posted on September 11, 2020 at 12:05 pm GMT

US 30 stock index (Cash) is flirting with the 200-period simple moving average (SMA) following a bounce off the 27,196 barrier, which was then capped by the 100-period SMA around 28,207. The retreat from the 6½-month high of 29,195 appears to maintain its waning negative tone, and may receive a boost from the forthcoming bearish crossover of the 100-period SMA by the 50-period one. That said, the merged Ichimoku lines are currently edging sideways reflecting a slowing pace in the [..]

Technical Analysis – US 500 index corrects sharply from fresh all-time high

Posted on September 7, 2020 at 1:19 pm GMT

US 500 index (Cash) recently plummeted from its new all-time top of 3,588, spiking below the 200-period simple moving average (SMA) until the 3,348 trough from August 20. It appears that negative pressures are abating, mirrored in the flattening of the Ichimoku lines and as price stalls. Furthermore, the short-term oscillators also suggest some subsiding in the negative picture. The stochastic oscillator appears to be strengthening. The MACD’s decline, in the negative region, seems to have started to ease, while [..]

Technical Analysis – US 30 index withdraws from fresh high; bullish bias intact

Posted on September 4, 2020 at 7:24 am GMT

US 30 stock index (Cash) retreated from the vicinity of 29,168, that being the 150.0% Fibonacci extension of the down wave from 27,632 to 24,560. The positive picture seems safeguarded by the advancing 50- and 100-day simple moving averages (SMAs), and may receive a boost from the approaching bullish crossover of the 200-day SMA by the 100-day one. Additionally, the progressing Ichimoku lines further service the ascent in the index. At the moment the short-term oscillators suggest the recoil from [..]

Technical Analysis – UK 100 index looking increasingly negative below SMAs

Posted on September 1, 2020 at 3:20 pm GMT

UK 100 stock index’s (Cash) somewhat stalled short-term picture is under strain as the index is encountering growing negative pressures, which are attempting to return a bearish bias. The price is currently testing the 5,850 barrier while the red Tenkan-sen line dips lower. Nonetheless, as things stand, no clear directional signals are reflected in the converging 50- and 100-day simple moving averages (SMAs), while the 200-day SMA maintains a negative bearing. That said, the RSI is falling in bearish territory, [..]

Technical Analysis – US 500 index logs new all-time high; bullish bias intact

Posted on August 31, 2020 at 12:36 pm GMT

US 500 index (Cash) broke above 3,396.64, accelerating over the last week towards a fresh all-time high of 3,526.31. The advancing Ichimoku lines reflect a sturdy positive tone above the cloud. Moreover, the recent bullish crossover of the 200-day simple moving average (SMA) by the rising 100-day one could further reinforce the positive picture. The short-term oscillators convey strong positive momentum, which is sponsoring the improving picture. The MACD, in the positive region, has moved above its red trigger line, [..]

Technical Analysis – US 30 index hits a snag, ascent dwindles into cloud

Posted on August 21, 2020 at 9:57 am GMT

US 30 stock index (Cash) drifted into the Ichimoku cloud and under the now capping 50-period simple moving average (SMA) after reaching a 5½-month high of 28,154. The waning positive momentum in the index is sponsored by the negative tone of the Ichimoku lines and, specifically, the fading red Tenkan-sen line. The short-term oscillators further support the negative move in the pair. The RSI slipped below its 50 neutral mark, while the stochastic oscillator cemented its bearish demeanour, breaking below [..]

Can Nvidia’s earnings keep the party going? – Stock Market News

Posted on August 19, 2020 at 2:40 pm GMT

The world’s leading graphics card maker will report its second-quarter earnings after Wall Street’s closing bell on Wednesday. The company’s shares have been on fire this year, rising by an incredible 108%. While Nvidia is a great company with a bright future, at current levels its stock looks expensive by most metrics, so anything short of stellar results and guidance might leave it vulnerable to a meaningful correction. Still, any pullback may simply present a better entry point for many [..]

Technical Analysis – CHI 50 index consolidates above SMAs, endures negative pressures

Posted on August 14, 2020 at 12:47 pm GMT

China A50 index (Cash) is floating sideways towards the Ichimoku cloud, following a pullback from the 16,404 top, which has kept positive momentum at bay. Nevertheless, the positively charged 50- and 100-day simple moving averages (SMAs) and their bullish crossovers with the 200-day SMA could maintain the broader positive picture intact for a while longer. That said, the MACD is holding in the positive region, trailing below the red trigger line, while the RSI is trying to pick up off [..]
