China HongXing – Broke all critical support levels!

  • Post author:

China HongXing closed at $0.20 with another bearish marubozu candle today! It also broke the uptrend channel support, 50D MA, and short term critical 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level of $0.204. All other technical indicators show weakness of the stock price. It may face further sell down pressure because the stock price is at the bottom envelope of the Bollinger Band and also below the Parabolic SAR line. It will be critical to see whether China HongXing can bounce back from $0.20 to $0.205 level in the next few days.  The next critical support level at $0.17 to $0.18.

How do I time my entry point?

After identifying a good stock and calculate the intrinsic value, the next important step is to develop a trading plan or investment plan of when to buy and when to sell. The first thing before I enter the position is to look for excuse for not to buy because it is easier to identify the not to buy signals.

When Not to Buy?

  • When the stock in on the down trend. I check whether the stock price is below 20D, 50D and 200D MA line. I do not want to buy a stock which may go lower and lower. I also use other Technical Indicators (MA, MACD, Parabolic Stop and Reversal, Bollinger Band, RSI, Stochastic) to confirm my analysis. Below is stock chart for S&P500, I show some Technical Indicators (MA, MACD and Bollinger Band) only on the charts otherwise the charts will be overcrowded when I include all six Technical Indicators. 
  • When the stock breaks below a strong support line.
  • If there is no clear support line on the chart, I will use Fibonacci retracement to identify the support level. 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level is a critical support or resistance level that I will pay special attention to.
  • When there are reversal patterns shown on the chart like Head & Shoulders, Double tops, Triple Tops.

     

  • When the stock price are testing the resistance or on top of the resistance of a channel.

     

When to Buy?

 

  • When the stock is on an up trend. The stock is above 20D, 50D & 200D MA, and all technical indicators show bullish convergence.
  • When the stock price breaks the resistance with high volume.

     

  • When the stock price breaks out from the consolidation.

     

  • When the stock price retraces back close to the support line on an uptrend channel. I buy on the dip.

     

There are still lot more patterns I need to learn to perfect my entry points. I will continue to share in my stock chart analysis.
