On Tuesday, the KLCI had its
intra-day low reaching 1580.51 points, losing up to 8.71 points. But due to the
support of some heavy weighted blue chips, the KLCI managed to reclaim its
earlier losses, and even closed at 1589.91 points, up 0.69 of a point.
Resistance for the KLCI remains at 1597.08 historical high or 1600 psychological
level, while the 14, 21, 31 EMA is still the dynamic support as indicated by A.
Despite reclaiming its
earlier losses, losers outnumbered winners by 519 to 257. Meanwhile, as indicated
by B, total market volume fell another 11.08 % with volume below the 40-day
Volume Moving Average. This shows that investors are taking extra caution as the
KLCI is approaching its historical high. The lower volume also implies a weaker
investor confidence, and lower inflow of fresh capital.
As indicated by C, the
Stochastic stays above 70%, in the short-term bullish territory, and the
short-term movement of the KLCI is still on the positive side.
In conclusion, despite
technical indicators like the 14, 21, 31 EMA and the Stochastic are not showing
any weakening signal, the declining of volume recently with the continuous
rising of the KLCI has formed a Price-Volume divergence. This generally implies
that the uptrend is losing strength.
