Trends And Targets

#FreeFutures Despite the FTSE index only being up 0.2%, it has been an extraordinary week for the market with surprising numbers of shares nudging above their growth triggers. Very few have reached their initial targets. Perhaps suggesting caution until news of a Brexit deal actually turns out to be real! Until then, just watch “The Good Place” on telly…

Even then, there risks being trouble on the horizon.

In a world already aflame with protest against cack-handed government, Hong Kong protests invade our nightly news, protests on Spain continued unabashed (unless including the bashing from the police), and of course, French protests have become so commonplace, the media ignores them. In the wings, the UK faces a problem with Scotland if the current agreement goes ahead. Apparently it disadvantages the entire country, already agitating for independence and voted nearly 2/3 against leaving the EU. While unrest from Scotland feels unthinkable, nearly 4% of the population marched on Edinburgh in foul conditions a few days ago in favour of independence. This massive turnout was not widely covered by UK media, aside from an interesting analysis on the BBC suggesting if more than 3.5% of a counties populace take to the streets, their revolution will succeed.

Long story short, even if Westminster successfully achieves some sort of Brexit agreement, it becomes highly unlikely we’ve seen the end of this messy story as far as the UK is concerned.

For Friday, the FTSE is in a fairly interesting position. It closed Thursday at 7182 and needs exceed Thursday high of 7238 before we dare believe the FTSE is celebrating in earnest, showing the potential of some real recovery. Near term, above 7242 indicates coming growth to an initial 7257 points. If exceeded, secondary is a more useful 7294 points and a level where some hesitation is expected. However, if the market opts to “go for it”,  we can mention a third level target at 7349 and this calculates as a point where some volatility is expected. Interesting to note, it also intersects with the downtrend since July.

As always, we’ve an “however” and alternate scenario. The lowest the market has achieved in October has been 7004 points, this being a concern. We had calculated a “bottom and bounce level” at 7034 points and the index squirmed below. Thankfully, for those chasing a bounce, we’d also proposed a stop loss around 6,990 points and the index has certainly provided payback.

But our 7034 did break, hinting at a risk of real weakness if sufficient excuse discovered.

Now, below 7141 calculates as entering a cycle down to an initial 7083 points. If broken, secondary calculates at 7024. This again shall take the FTSE into the land of lower lows where an ill timed Tweet or political quote could rapidly provoke reversal to 6750 points.

For now, we shall not be surprised to witness 7349 before everything unravels again.

#US500 #DOW Triggers are always interesting. Currently, Twitter has a constant battle about something called Transgender with the word “him” becoming a ‘trigger’ point for what is often quite nasty (aka entertaining) debate. Sensing a trough, politicians are even involved. Sooner or later, some innocent pastor is going to open the gates of hell on a Sunday, when asking his audience to rise for a singalong. Someone will complain; “It’s not a ‘HIM’, it’s a Psalm which now self identifies as Samantha…”

We had our own little “trigger” incident today with the UK Oil & Gas Sector, the NMX0530!

Last time we covered it in August (link), we’d warned the dangers if 8214 points broke. In the couple of months since, the index has assiduously avoided the trigger level, almost teasing us with the care taken to ensure 8214 points didn’t actually break. To us, it tends confirm we’ve been working against the correct trend and calculating properly. Unfortunately, for the index, it tends mean if we were correct about 8214, we’ll invariably be correct about the reversal potentials.

The reason for our concern about this sector is fairly obvious. Oil & Gas shares are fairly major drivers for the main index and also, through the AIM, attractive to many private investors. As a result, we’d suggest keeping a weather eye on the NMX0530 before decided any oil share is actually cheap. The immediate situation is straightforward as weakness now below 8195 looks like entering a cycle down to 7998 points next. Visually, there is ample reason to expect some sort of rebound at such a level but if it breaks on the initial surge downhill, our secondary calculates at 7746 points.

From a really big picture perspective, if our secondary fails to promote a reasonable rebound, the index risks losing a further 1500 points as it could trend down to a bottom (hopefully) at 6230 points.

To escape this potential Black Hole, the index requires above 8570 points as this calculates with the potential of recovery to 8854 points. This “risks” being game changing, thanks to our secondary above 8854 coming in at 9403 points and safety (apparently) for the future.

#DOW #FRANCE Tern is proving a bit of a puzzle. For the last few weeks, we’ve been anticipating it finding an excuse to bottom just above the 4p level. We’re starting to wonder if it’s a Brexit inspired share, something which promises to do something which never actually happens.

Thus far, the lowest achieved has been 7.65p and weakness below such a level remains pointing at 4p but we’re having some doubts.

The reason for our hesitation comes from the plethora of coloured lines on the chart. There appears little doubt TERN share price is simply ignoring prior downtrends with the result something else must be driving the current period of hiatus and we’d guess it isn’t chatroom gossip! Instead, it would be reasonable to assume the market is patiently waiting for some sort of news, perhaps an indication “The Internet of Things” is actually becoming a “thing”. Or perhaps one of their investments is expected to come to fruition.

In the meantime, we’ll remain cautious, looking carefully at the glass ceiling which has formed at 13.25p. Only movement above such a level is liable to make us raise an eyebrow as this should trigger recovery to an initial 18p. If exceeded on any initial surge, secondary calculates at 20p and visually yet another glass ceiling awaits any rising cycle. Only with closure beyond such a level will we enthusiastically proclaim the potentials of 33p in the future.

At present, it’s worth remembering of the dangers below 7.65p and perhaps simple remembering patience.

#Gold #SP500 Hell IS NOT Woodfords price movements, it’s two grand-daughters visiting for their school holidays. A normal morning has one of the dogs barking at a red squirrel outside. Monday morning at 7am instead had a child playing a 12 string guitar, accompanied by the other on a mandolin. Neither child can play an instrument; a stupid promise of being taught some basics this week ensured a really unpleasant wakeup. Thankfully chainsaw lessons had not been mentioned!

Last time we reviewed Woodford (link), we’d given 52.60p as level, below which, opened the gates of hell. Once again, we’ve had a few emails asking us to explore what may be coming next. There’s a fairly major issue as last time, we were unable to calculate below 52.60p without casually throwing minus signs into the conversation. This is still the case but if we opt to work on the period from the point the share was forced down (circled) from the 80p region, there’s something potentially interesting.

At time of writing, it’s trading at 37.6p, needing below 35p to once again serve notice of trouble. This time, below 35 indicates the potential of movement to 32.5p with secondary, if broken, down at 30p. Given these are virtually the same number, the usual suggestion is of a share approaching a real bottom, a level at which a rebound can be indicated.

All this Brexit nonsense was the subject of conversation at the weekend. A chum was visiting, a bloke whose company specialises in asbestos survey pre-renovation or demolition. Over the years, we’ve learned to associate the volume of his work with how busy the economy is going to be. The thinking is fairly simple, if corporate bodies are employing him, there’s a fair bit of money about to be spent. Presently, he’s turning away contracts, due to being deluged with public and private sector requests. Given historical experience, thoughts of a slump post Brexit are liable to fade.

For the likes of Woodford, a trust fund suffering some investment choices which, for now, appear dreadful, if there is a miracle surge in share prices post-Brexit (if it ever happens) we’d suspect Woodfords share price to echo the wider market. This is why we’re a little bit interested at the “feel” of it approaching a bottom.

Sensible people, opting to play safe, will doubtless wait and see if the share recovers above 50p. In such an event, we’re calculating an initial ambition at 57.5p with secondary, if bettered, a longer term 75p. Beyond 75p and we shall need shake the tea leaves again.

Otherwise, it is worth remembering the share, despite our slight enthusiasm, is trading in a region where The Big Picture cannot calculate a bottom without minus signs!

Bitcoin BTCUSD With Jeremy Clarkston making “Who Wants to Be A Millionaire” viewable, utter shock was experienced losing £32,000 hypothetical pounds when getting an answer wrong! The reason; being 100% certain Pioneer 1 visited Mars while the Viking space probe did Venus & Saturn, with the idiot on TV walking into the trap, saying “Viking”. Except, of course, for a tiny little problem ; my 100% certainty was utter tosh.

Thankfully, this sort of nonsense rarely translates to our attitude against prices as we’re able to constantly weigh forces, usually able to make a reasonable bigger picture decision with a fair chance of accuracy. Further to our report in September, Bitcoin indeed tumbled to 9218 and in the period since, has hovered above our secondary longer term target at 7220. So far, the closest achieved has been 7665 dollars, visually giving an impression it may be “close enough” to bottom, if any real strength is apparent.

We’re not entirely sold on the idea, thanks to the BLUE downtrend. It suggests Bitcoin presently requires exceed 9900 before we dare start to trust any rise. The reason is fairly painful as weakness now below 7665 indicates expected travel to an initial 7220 with secondary, if (when) broken, now at a long term 4,900. Despite such a secondary sounding like a substantial drop, it simply returns Bitcoin to the levels of April this year. In plain English, the forces against Bitcoin, even though it has not achieved our 7220, remain down at present.

To give an indication any rise my prove genuine, the price needs above 9534 as this apparently calculates with an initial ambition at 9955. If exceeded, secondary calculates at 11745, along with almost certain hesitation.

#SP500 #JAPAN As the clock ticks down (or not) to Brexit, we’ve been considering suggestions on how to trade! The reason is fairly basic, there’s a good chance of market volatility with a bunch of lazy writers quoting trite Warren Buffet sayings. It would be nice to say we already know what’s coming but it’d also be utter bulls**t. While many respected economists are queuing up to do their “talking heads” thing to predict calamity, famine, markets crashing, lack of toilet paper, etc, it’s worth remembering not a single one of them got it right with the crash which culminated in 2009, a crash we still feel the effects of.

It’s possible, if these clowns are predicting chaos, we should actually anticipate the opposite, should Brexit actually happen.

One thing is certain. Even if there is no chaos, the market will invent some on Brexit day as wild swings will be the immediate fashion. Of course, the reason for wild swings is rather less glamorous than folk like to admit. A game of “trap the stop loss” and “trigger the order” will commence, effectively meaning STOPS and ORDERS risk proving a really bad idea.

Imagine, for instance, a trader with a cunning plan which involves Lloyds shares. Visually, there’s a heck of an argument suggesting this should go up in price, if it only betters 57p. Equally, if it drops below 48p, it’s probably going down. On Brexit day, it would be perfectly feasible for the price to surge to 57p for a second, triggering the buy order. And at 2 seconds past 8am, it would probably fall below 48p, triggering the stop loss.

So, if the trader had allocated £10K to the Lloyds trade, they’d lose nearly £1,600 within the opening seconds of the market day. This is not a fairytale, it happens.

To trade safely at Brexit, if Brexit ever happens, STOPS are liable to be the enemy and therefore, worth either expanding to absurd levels or removing entirely. Equally, on the subject of ORDERS, they can prove dangerous unless opting to chase the absurd. In the case of Lloyds, a buy order around 30p would make sense. RBS on the other hand allows 142p, perhaps even 100p.

We’ll cover this in greater detail as the month unravels.

As for Friday, the FTSE is making as much sense as a Labour politician when asked their policy on Europe. While genuinely preferring to avoid distain and distrust against any specific party (they all deserve it), Labour justifying a position where they approve of Europe membership, while being determined to leave is frankly beyond parody. Even up here in Scotland, lunatics appear to be flourishing in politics.

At a time when almost 1/4 million Scots marched in torrential rain, on Edinburgh last weekend for independence (somehow the media didn’t notice nor did the SNP) and nearly 2/3 of the country voted Remain, it would be logical to expect the SNP to be working hard to achieve their independent aim? Nope, their focus appears to be on saving England from its apparently mistaken belief that Leaving Europe is a good thing. Scottish politicians seem to be competing with the national football team in achieving absolutely nothing and being a joke in their own country.

The index closed Thursday at 7197 points and appears to have set 7225 points as a valid trigger level for any real rise. Above 7225 expects a useless 7235 points initially with secondary, if bettered, at 7309 allegedly. Recent market behaviour has seen rises fail roughly half way to their secondary and if this is the case again, the index will probably fizzle at 7270 points or so.

If triggered, the tightest stop looks like 7140 points.

The alternate position; what happens if 7140 breaks? We calculate reversal to an initial 7122 with secondary, if broken, at 7091 points. We’d add, if the index starts trading below RED, this years uptrend, Boris need only announce something daft to provoke 7027 points very fast.

The Rupee / Sterling relationship needs, like so many other instruments, a glance back 10 years to 2009 as we need make a decision on the visuals for the intervening 10 years since the last financial tumble. At present, there are a few alarm bells ringing with this pairing as weakness now below 86.25 risks reversal down to an initial 83.80. This risks being significant, again breaking the long term uptrend and risking continued reversals to 79, should 83.80 break on the initial drop.

It’s probably worth looking at the inset on the chart below. The relationship was gapped (aka manipulated) back above the ruling uptrend in August, suggesting the market was perfectly aware the dangers of a drop.

In this particular instance, despite 79 making a lot of visual sense as “bottom”, our software insists this scenario should complete at a bottom of 75.

What if a miracle occurs?

The relationship needs exceed 89.50 at present to suggest it’s moving out of trouble. This should permit some recovery up to an initial 94 with secondary, if exceeded, calculating at a longer term 100. There’s certainly a heck of an argument favouring a pause at 94 but our secondary ambition looks less possible.
