As indicated by A, the KLCI
tested the 1668 resistance with strong volume on Friday, with its intra-day high
reaching 1670.16 points, making yet another historical new high. However, due to
strong profit takings, the KLCI failed to close above 1668 and only closed at
1666.35 points, gaining only 0.93 of a point or 0.06%. Therefore, the immediate
resistance for the KLCI is still at 1668 while the support is the 14, 21, 31 EMA
dynamic support.
As indicated by B, total
market volume increased 6.27%, with volume above the 40-day Volume Moving
Average. This shows that the market is actively participated. Not only that, the
market turnover value also increased 42.5%, hitting RM 21.86 Billion, which is
the highest in 3 months. This suggests that not only low-priced stocks are
actively traded, there were some blue chips as well, which includes TM, and
Axiata.
As indicated by C, the
Stochastic remains above 70%, in the short-term bullish territory. This suggests
that the short-term movement of the KLCI is still positive.
In conclusion, although the
market trading volume and turnover value has increased, losers outnumbered
gainers, and this is actually reflecting that profit taking is generally
dominant on Friday, as investors are taking caution ahead of the weekend, and
choose to take profit on Friday, as they are unsure if the KLCI could
successfully break above the 1668 resistance. Nevertheless, despite the slightly
stronger selling pressure, the technical outlook for the KLCI remains positive,
as the KLCI is still firmly above the rising 14, 21, 31 EMA dynamic support.
