South Africa 40 Cash Index price reversal suggesting further gains
The South Africa 40 Cash Index is not expected to adjust for a dividend in the underlying for the week commencing 22nd of July 2024
South Africa 40 Cash Index
Our preferred scenario from our previous note (below) has manifested, with the South Africa 40 Cash Index having pulled back from overbought territory towards the 72185 support level.
Circled blue we see a bullish price reversal suggesting an end to the recent correction and possible resumption of the longer term uptrend. 74420 becomes the initial upside resistance target from the move. A break of this level (confirmed with a close above) would suggest 75350 as a further target. Traders who are long might consider using a close below the reversal low or 72185 support level as a stop loss indication.
No cash adjustment expected
The South Africa 40 Cash Index is not expected to adjust for a dividend in the underlying for the week commencing 22nd of July 2024.
South Africa 40 Cash Index (previous)
The South Africa 40 Cash Index has now broken resistance at 74420. The close above this level suggests 75350 as the next resistance target from the move. Trading long into the breakout appears to provide an unfavourable risk to reward assumption. The overbought signal provides further uncertainty to the trade scenario.
Our preference is to wait for a pullback from overbought territory before looking for new long entry in line with the longer term uptrend bias.
No cash adjustment expected
The South Africa 40 Cash Index is not expected to adjust for a dividend in the underlying for the week commencing 15th of July 2024.
