20060119 3:30 pm. FKLI quiet despite the volatility in regional markets. Let's take the time to examine how the previous trade long, can be entered with more certainty and confidence. The 60 min chart of the FKLI shows the 200 ema was tested yesterday, held the support. So we know there is another factor that improves the probable outcome of the trade.

20060118 Nikkei 225 Stock Average, the last 2 day plunge. Is this smething new? Something disastrous? The end of the world? As it stands, we see this all the time in specific stock charts. For example on Bursamalaysia names that come to mind include Liqua, Tanamas, Gensoil, Ho Wah Genting, Abric, go way back the 2nd Board companies like Posim, Repco, Hwa Tai, etc etc the list goes on and on. Right now there is one such pattern on a stock starting with F, which has a very bullish broker call on it at the moment. The bottom line is when large funds (or syndicates) push up the stock, they create excitement and pandemonium and prey on human greed, and when they liquidate the positions, the unsuspecting small investor/trader often gets burnt. The Nikkei 225 plunge is no different, a chart is a chart, only this one is a much bigger scale.
20060118 Close. The FKLI and Bursa in general is afected by the turmoil in the Nikkei 225 drop of greater than 8% in 2 days. Overnight news of earnings misses also has a bearing on the market. The divergence gap closing trade did not materialise due to no close above the resistance levels.(trend lines) A trade idea is the 3 step trend line reversal, The chart shows 3 progressively steeper resistance trendlines. Tomorrow if can get a close above the last trendine, a long signal would trigger, with the target of the 2nd, then the 3rd trendline.

20060117 4:25 pm. Stopped out of thelong positin by the adverse movement due to the Nikkei 225 plunge, caused by the Livedoor issue. Two things are evident from the 45 min chart here, a divergence is possibly forming and there is an upside gap caused by the sudden selldown after lunch. Watching these for possible trade.

20060116 The 60 min chart pattern is the thing against the long position, showing a break of a triangle pattern. However, daily charts show support from 50,100 and 200 ema at aroun 905 level. We have 2 factors for the trade, underlying support on daily chart and 15 min, but a triangle pattern break. Odds favour the long side.
