FGEN Continues Pushing for New Multi-Year Highs!

FGEN is on a fresh 2 and a half year high, as it finished today's trading at 14.52, a level not seen since June 2008. With a strong close and with healtyh volume, the next target in sight is the 15.80 area, and this is only the beginning.

To postion for this trade, try to wait for a pull back, and to a price as near as possible to 14.30, the break out point.

Zooming out from the chart, FGEN appears to have broken out from a cup and handle formation area pattern, giving it a price target of at least 18.00, within an 8-month time frame. So for long-term positioners, FGEN looks good and safe bet. For swing traders, 15.80 is good immediate price target.

Power companies now seem to take center stage, with FPH also making a continuation move from a flag formation to finish up by 3.3%, and EDC consolidating within an area formation where a significant price action may be imminent. AP, however, lags behind. But its long term uptrend remains intact.

Returning to FGEN, 14.20 might be a good tigh-cut level, with 13.20 as the absolute cut level.

MBT, BDO Breaks Out, as Banking Issues Lead the Way

Banking in general performed very well on today's trading session, with MBT and BDO breaking out from their immediate price resistances. Overall, market was up, and looking on the charts, it seems that MBT and BDO might still have some legs in continuing the recent bullish move of the local market.

MBT, after consolidating between 66.00 and 69.00 for the majority of April, finally managed to slip past the 69.00 immediate resistance level to close at 70.50, with a high of 71.25. With the needed volume spike not present in this move, target price for MBT in the meantime is at 75.00. Just buy back MBT again, if price action allows it to move higher than 75.00, and accompanied with volume. Stop limits on the other hand, could be placed just below 67.00 for safety purposes.

For BDO, it seems to have broken out from a cup and handle area pattern resistance at 54.00. But as with MBT, BDO's bullish move today was not supported by strong volume, making the confidence level for this trade not that high. Based on the area pattern, we could see this issue to try and retest the 60.00 resistance level, before attempting to test the recent high of 64.00.

PNB also made a strong move, finishing the day at 65.90, up by 5.4%, and could well be on its way to test the 68.60 recent high. Any breach of this high could allow PNB to attem once again to take the 74.00 key price barrier. But for the meantime, wait and see if PNB can manage to find a way above 68.60.

Is 20 Pesos Just a Dream for PX? Or a Reality?

Afer successfully clearing the immediate 16.30 resistance to close at an impressive 16.48, PX looks strong to try and retest the next immediate resistance at 17.00, which could possible lead to, the mighty 20 pesos resistance level.

With the needed volume confirmation is present earlier today, and the MACD level is trudging along very well, the prospects for PX reaching 20 at least looks good, especially once price action allows it to break past the immediate 17.00 level.

Those late to the party might want to try and get in as near as possible to the 16.30 level, or wait for the break of the 17.00 level. Inversely, stops could be placed just below 16.00, in order to cur any losses, or lock in any profits already made.

EDC – A Pullback Buy?

EDC has pulled back towards the 6.55 breakout point/support level in recent days, following its breakout move last April 7, establishing highs at the 6.8 levels. Although price actions has weakened, EDC has presented a buying opportunity to us at the 6.55 levels.

At this price, a tight cut limit can be set at 6.40, so risk in this particular issue is limited, while profit potential is good, and basically limitless once EDC breaks the 5.80 barrier, and enter uncharted territories and establish new all-time highs.

Another possible twist is that one can buy upon the break of the 5.80 with good volume, or average up if one already managed to get shares near the 6.55 support levels. Buy near support, buy on breakout, or buy near support add position on breakout, its up to you to decide.

Uncharted Territory for DMC

Earlier today, DMC has finally confirmed clearing the 41.00 all-time resistance level, and looks poised to continue thrusting upwards, while establishing new all-time records along the way. 

Now, it might be hard to identify the next resistance level as DMC is now on uncharted territories, it might be a safe bet to try to sell just before the next psychological resistance at 50.00.

A safe stop level should be at the 40.00 level, any price action below this level should be your signal to sell DMC.
