As indicated by A, the KLCI opened gap down on
Wednesday, losing 25.03 points or 1.6% to close at 1536.04 points. This is the
biggest fall of the KLCI since September 2011. For now, the immediate resistance
for the KLCI is at 1566-1570 while the support remains at 1500.
As indicated by B, total market volume increased
18.7%, but still below the 40-day Volume Moving Average. This shows that the
market is still relatively quiet. Technically, if the KLCI (or the market as a
whole) is falling with significant increase of volume, it implies an increased
of selling pressure.
As indicated by C, the Stochastic still stays
below 30%, in the short-term bearish territory, suggesting that the KLCI
short-term movement is still weak. If the Stochastic should break above 30%, it
would be a signal suggesting a beginning of a technical rebound for the KLCI.
In conclusion, after the sharp fall, the
short-term movement of the KLCI is showing some sign of over-selling, and
generally, some pullback is possible in the near future after the KLCI is
over-sold. However, the downtrend for the KLCI remains intact, while the
technical outlook is still negative.
