Nickel Asia Corporation Technical Analysis
Nickel Asia Corporation (NIKL) closed at P6.32 per share, up by 8.03 percent, on February 22, 2021. The total turnover value reached P240.48 million.
The foreign investors’ participation’s size is quite noticeable, which started in the last week of October 2020. Did you know that they’ve been on a net buying mode for 10 consecutive trading days already? Today, they registered a net foreign buying worth nearly P48 million.
NIKL’s ascent is supported with volume. I see two towering volume bars registered in the two past consecutive trading days, which are both higher than 100 percent of NIKL’s prevailing 10-day volume average during the said days.
Despite the bullishness of the NIKL, it managed to maintain a 10-day historical volatility score below 70 percent, which makes it a moderate-risk stock.
Using the 14-day standard smoothing period in my Directional Movement Index, I see that the +DMI registers a bullish divergence from the -DMI, which is in favor of the bulls, of course. However, I prefer to see the Average Directional Index’s score touch the 20-point mark to validate a strong upward momentum. But what more can you ask for? NIKL’s has risen from P1.40/sh to P6.30/sh since May 2020.
The immediate support sits at P6.00, while the immediate resistance stands at P7.50. If NIKL retreats, P5.30 will be its support level.
Based on my Evergreen Strategy 1.0, the stock will only get a confirmed buy signal if its 10SMACD and Momentum Power Indicator are both bullish. NIKL’s 10SMACD is bullish. Let’s proceed to my trade-volume distribution analysis to know the status of its Momentum Power Indicator.

Intraday Low: ₱5.9600
Intraday High: ₱6.4100

NIKL got a bullish Momentum Power Indicator since all of its parameters are bullish. This mining stock has a confirmed buy signal. But don’t be too quick to decide to buy. Consider what the overall True Market Sentiment says, too.

It’s a topsy-turvy overall True Market Sentiment across two timeframes. It’s neutral with a bearish bias. It seems NIKL is more likely to rest a bit as it temp-checks the appetite of the investing public to buy more. Watch out for the daily moves of Wealth Securities and Deutsche Regis Partners. If these two start to register a net selling amount for 2 to 3 consecutive days, it’ll be more likely for the trend to continue to move toward the immediate support.

Recommendations
If you already have a base on NIKL and if your trailing stop is intact, you have two options.
Option 1: Top up within the prevailing dominant range if you have a high-risk tolerance.
Option 2: Hold your position if you have a low-risk level due to the neutral (with bearish bias) overall True Market Sentiment.
If you don’t have a position on NIKL, you may consider the two options I mentioned above, depending on your risk level. Of course, you must calculate your reward-to-risk ratio first. Only when you are satisfied with the ratio should you position to buy within the prevailing dominant range.
If the dominant range I indicated above doesn’t show up within the first 3 to 5 minutes of trading by the next trading day, please ask for NIKL’s latest trade-volume distribution in our Private Clients Forum (for our subscribers only).

I like your style when you present and how you explain
Hello, Jaycee. First of all, thank you very much for your free email which is a big help for me. I have been in stocks for a long period of time, and I only play my guts after reading full articles about the company or searching for any good news about the company, and never have time to learn the game. I like your style when you present and how you explain. It’s very thorough and precise, even for a novice like me would easily understand.after reading I don’t go for my gut anymore ? I was hoping to avail of the discount for the whole year that you offered before and never have got a chance to submit my application. Is it still available? Anyway, thanks again.
Your hints are all straight to the point.

dito ka na kung hanap mo ay forum na walang troll
Sir pagamit nga nung slogan nating more wins less losses. Tama nga ba sir? Anyway, I’m here to write a testimonial for this service. For the first time, nakapagtry akong magtrade. 7 gains. 1 loss. Hindi na masama para sa isang beginner na tulad ko. Pero hindi mo magagawa yun kung wala ang Stock Signals. Baka 7 losses at 1 win ang mangyayari kung ako lang. Super excited ako sa pwede ko pang marating sa tulong ng Stock Signals. Isa pang maganda sa Stock Signals ay yung forum. Puro chart at data yung usapan. Kung naghahanap ka ng forum na walang troll at matitino ang usapan, sa Stock Signals ka na.
a breath of fresh air
In a frantic world of stock trading, I consider SS a breath of fresh air. I have been trading through COL financial for more than 3yrs and I can say that SS never fails to calm me in my hectic schedule being employed in a demanding job, being a mom of 3 and doing online stock trading too. Most of the times that I tend to be emotionally attached to my top picks SS makes me think of better things to do with them. Thanks, Jaycee and more power to you?
he interacts with his clients in the forum
As an IT professor myself, I know it would be easy for Jaycee to just throw his explanations in the actual stock market lingo. By observing how he interacts with his clients in the forum, you’ll see how he can be technical yet easy to understand all at the same time. I am not active in the forum but I read. He writes in Tagalog seldom but he will when he feels that he has to. I also noticed that he loves to elaborate his answers to make sure you understand how and why he arrived into such conclusion. The forum is only a free add-on to his Stock Signals on top of the access to his Top Stock Picks page, but for 400 bucks a month, the forum alone is more than enough. Kudos to this young man.
Its like I see you face to face with the way you explain things.
I appreciate your free newsletter. Great job sir. Its like I see you face to face with the way you explain things. Breaking it down to the smallest yet very helpful details!God bless!Ps. Hope your “gift” regarding the discounted 1-year unlimited subscription would be back.
