Broadway Industrial - Signs of Exhaustion


On 27 January, I cautioned that Broadway Industrial Group's recent rally may be running out of steam at 0.15. This morning it fell to a low of 0.127. This is a proprietary trading signal that I have been using to spot market top and bottom and it has worked so well with Broadway Industrial Group.

McKesson - Legal Troubles

Pharmaceutical distributor McKesson (NYSE: MCK) remains in the spotlight for its role in the opioid epidemic. Earlier this month, McKesson agreed to settle a lawsuit with the state of West Virginia for $37 million. The lawsuit claimed that the company flooded the market with highly addictive narcotics and misled the public. This is just one of a multitude of settlements we expect McKesson to pay going forward. McKesson estimates opioid litigation alone will cost it $100 million in 2019 and $150 million per year starting in 2020. This litigation will only grow from here.

SGX – Breaking Out Of the Range


  • Recent price action triggers a bullish implication of a multi year basing pattern and breaking out of the 2016-2018 trading range between 6.80 to 7.70 adds more evidence to the upswing cycle.
  • Breaking above resistances at 8.50 and 8.80 will set the stock for another swing up to its next upside target at 9.60.
  • Staying firmly above its 200 days moving average since early 2019 confirms the uptrend is intact.

UOB - Trading within a Range


  • UOB is trading between the range 24.30 to 27.00. After touching 27.00 level in early November it has retraced to its 200-day MA support level.
  • The current pullback could continue towards the next support at 25.4.
  • A break below 25.40 could trigger a downward move toward 24.30 which will offer an opportunity to accumulate new long position in anticipation of a rebound.

PetroChina – Downtrend Intact


  • PetroChina is still a significant underperformer within the China A50 index stocks as price action maintains a series of lower highs that has formed since November 2018.
  • Today it broke its 3.70 support and if it stays below this level, it could test the next support at 3.44 in the short term.
  • It trades significantly below its 200-day MA and the longer price objective points to a target of 3.11.

Hang Seng Index - Middle Of The Range But Expect A Corrective Pullback

  • A corrective pullback is underway after bouncing off the November highs. Current resistance is capped at 7212.
  • The short-term price action indicates a pullback to 26050 which coincides with the support on the long-term uptrend.
  • A break below the 26000 to 26050 range would be bearish and would bring our attention to the next support at 25390.

Straits Times Index – Losing Steam

  • The FTSE STI is unable to hold above the 200-day moving average support and is showing sign of reversal to test the next support at 3142. A break below 3142 could trigger a test of the next support at 3090.
  • The STI currently sits below the 200 days MA but is above its long-term trend line support. A break below the long-term trendline support could result in prolong weakness of the index.
  • The resistance is capped at 3227.

Yangzijiang - Bearish Price Action

On 5th November, it was ramped up on high volume, giving the impression that the stock has finally turned around after a period of consolidation. Today, the stock reversed to give up almost all its gains. Many traders were caught on 5th November and it will take many more days before the stock can turn up again. It could test the last support 0.95 in the short term. A break below 0.94 could see the stock price testing its low at 0.91 again.

Wait Till the Midnight Hour

Here is a prolonged puzzle. Over the last quarter-century, trading during market hours in the U.S. stock market has lost money. This is true even though the stock market as a whole has, as we know, risen impressively over that period.

The reason for this is that almost all the price action happens at the open. This chart from Ned Davis Research Inc. shows the phenomenon clearly enough. Davis refers to it as the “Goodnight Moon trade.” The black line is what you would make if you bought at each day’s closing price, and sold immediately after the following day’s opening. The red line is how you fared trading at all other times during the day.

Graduates of Robin's trading course, September 2019

Testimonial from Vincent, graduate of Robin's trading course: 

"With the knowledge gained in the course I can better time my entry and exit points.I learned to analyse trends and have a clearer view of the market.Previously, I only did long trades. After attending the course I learned practical strategies for short trades as well. The course is special as we were analysing a common portfolio over six lessons and we could see how the charts evolved according to the trade plans we prepared.We saw how the technical skills and knowledge taught in the class came into play in the live trading session. Now I have a better feeling of what traders do on a daily basis."

The Trade War Cycle

Since Trump became President he has said for 14 times that US is close to a deal with China but the deal has never materialised. In spite of being played out so many times, traders continue to believe in what Trump says. This is the trade war trading cycle. Every trader gets sucked into this cycle of death.

Gold Glitters - Why it will be the Best Performing asset class this year

According to Deutsche Bank about 15 % of the government bonds globally trades at negative yield, many investors who shunned  gold because of its zero yield does not consider it as a penalty now. Its unthinkable that Government are getting paid to borrow money as people seek for a safe haven to park their money as trade tension and volatility rise, its no surprise that people are flocking to Gold.

Another compelling reason that make Gold a natural investment choice is central bankers around the world competes in a monetary race to bring rates to zero. Fed cuts interest rates from 2.5 to 2.25% last month and this marked the central bank's first rate cut since 2008. Recently New Zealand, Thailand and India followed in the wake of the Fed to cut rates.

As interest rates worldwide goes negative, investors suffers less opportunity cost from  gold's zero yield. Gold is traditionally  an inflation hedge and its appeal as a stored value is back again.

This blog has been predicting Gold will be the top investment asset class since 23 Mar 2019 when Gold was trading at 1310 and thus far it has hit my first target at 1550. Gold is poised to test its 2011 high of 1915 this year.

On the Chart, this is my outlook and where Gold stands now

The Giant Hunt For Yield Will Lead To A Financial Melt Down


The Giant  Hunt For Yield Will Lead To A Financial Melt Down
The US 10 Years Treasury yield is poised to test the 6 years low at 1.35% as negative bond yields wash over Europe and Japan. This will force  the Fed to keep lowering rates so that America can remain competitive with the rest of the world. Investors and corporation will be force and lured into taking riskier bets and anything that provides some sort of decent cash flows will be bought up, as American yields head lower and lower. The elusive inflation,  that central bankers hope will rise to ease the global debts problem has not materialize inspite of prolonged monetary stimulus. The build up in risky asset and debts will eventually lead to a Big Blow up. The only safe haven this blog believe is in Gold.

China Yuan Devaluation and Its Impact

China’s currency broke through the psychologically important level of 7 yuan to the dollar, prompting President Trump to accuse Beijing of manipulating its currency .

PBoC said the currency’s slump was “due to the effects of unilateralist and trade-protectionist measures and the expectations for tariffs against China,” the People’s Bank of China said in a statement.

Currency weakness is a textbook response to tariffs being imposed on a country’s exports but do not expect a repeat of Monday’s large one-day depreciation because devaluation will hurt both countries as imports becomes more expensive for chinese companies.

Monday’s move should be seen as a warning shot , its more likely the PBoC will be to allow a gradual (2018-style) depreciation in response to the heightened tariff threat given that global trade and manufacturing are already considerably weaker than a year ago.

The other smaller Asian currencies will also weaken in the wake of the yuan . The weakening of the yuan will be also post as a tailwind for commodity prices Historically, turning points in the CNY/USD exchange rate have also coincided with turning points in commodity prices. This blog expect commodity prices to be soft going forward to the end of the year.

Four Signs the Gold Bull is Back

Gold break out of 6 years downtrend. I have called a buy on Gold since my market outlook on 23 mar when gold prices was at 1315. Back then the call to overweight on gold was the bearish outlook for the US dollar, the impending recession due to the inverted yield curve and the expectation of the central bankers reverting to another monetary stimulus in the form of modern monetary theory if recession sets in.
I see 4 signs why the gold bull run is back. First, despite a strong dollar gold was quickly closing in on multi year highs. Second, and perhaps more important, gold mining stocks are outperforming Gold for the first time in many years. This is evident in the Gold ratio index. Because gold stocks provide leverage to the price of gold, they tend to move faster than gold if it is a real bull run. Thirdly Gold is also outperforming the other precious metal like silver and platinum. Fourthly. the world’s biggest central bankers are all preparing to flood the world with “easy money” again and add in the rising Middle East tension and your can expect a explosive move higher.

HK Extradition bill could inflict huge damage on HK economy and stock market

The passage of the extradition bill could be a tipping point for the removal of US-Hong Kong Policy Act which can potentially inflict huge damage on the Hong Kong economy and its stock market

The passage of the extradition bill could potentially be the tipping point in US-Hong Kong relations, from which the US begins to seriously question whether Hong Kong is justified to receive special treatment from the US.

The US is also concerned that the proposed changes “could create serious risks for US national security and economic interests in the territory. If passed, the bill could potentially violate several key provisions of the US-Hong Kong Policy Act of 1992” “ and subject US citizens residing in or visiting Hong Kong to China’s judicial system.

There are fears the US will revoke the US-Hong Kong Policy Act. The policy act treats Hong Kong as a separate jurisdiction from mainland China and gives Hong Kong special treatment with regards to matters trade and commerce . For example, Hong Kong is not subject to the tariffs imposed by the US on Chinese goods in the current trade war.

I believe that the risk of the US withdrawing the US-Hong Kong Policy Act immediately is small since Donald Trump has not sound any serious opposition so far . Removal of the US-Hk Policy act could also set off the withdrawal of foreign investment in Hong Kong businesses and asset from a loss of confidence.

Short Term Outlook and Strategy

The G20 meeting scheduled on 28 – 29 Jun in Japan where Trump said he will meet with President Xi. As G20 meeting approaches it could spark some short covering and buying interest. However this blog believes that ‘Red lines’ indicated by the China White Paper makes quick deal is unlikely as “China will not sign a deal that does not immediately remove all tariffs on Chinese exports” and “China will not sign an agreement that requires unrealistic increases in China’s purchases of US goods. 

The initial request by the US, that Chinese imports rise by US$200bn is already borderline unrealistic.” The recent China PMI figures shows that manufacturing is contracting.  Thus monetary policy support will continue, but demand from the real economy is not catching up. If the trade issue escalates, there will be more earnings cuts in the future. Offshore markets will be affected by Rmb depreciation. Stick to consumer sector, with strong domestic demand is good, dividend plays, such as utilities but not banks because of the low interest rate environment.

RHO Index Key Levels - Recent Highlights

On 27 May, the first trading day after our first anniversary, both our predicted day high and day low for China A50 were hit. On top of that, we had 3 take profit signals for the long trade, followed by a bonus short signal after it had reversed from the day high. The intra-day range of our prediction today was 318 points. 


We are constantly enhancing our RHO robot's algorithm. On 29 May, 2 trades were triggered, and our RHO predicted day high was hit twice. As you can see from the illustration below, subscribers received step by step notification for entry and profit taking.


We had two buy signals for S&P 500 on 3 June. Here, we can see the advantage of a responsive algorithm. After the first buy signal, the take profit signal was sent less than an hour later, right after it had reversed from the peak! Without the robot to signal the first take profit, it would been back to square one. Shortly after that, the second buy signal was triggered, and we took all the profits within 30 minutes.


The same night, our RHO prediction for Dow Jones was also triggered, but it was a signal to short! What's more impressive is the take profit signal which was sent just before the rebound, which would have erased the gains. Also see that the partial profit and full profit signals were just 2 minutes apart, which shows the responsiveness of our algorithm in protecting the profits made.

How I made almost $20k SGD in 3 days with a simple trade plan

I would like to share how I used a simple trade plan to trade the Hang Seng Index, and make a decent profit in just 3 days!

In this chart, you can see Hang Seng Index hitting the resistance of my trend channel, where I opened a short position of 480,000 shares with the Hang Seng Index 7X short DLC.

If you are new to DLC, DLC stands for Daily Leverage Certificate. It is traded on the Singapore Stocks Exchange, and allows you to long or short selected indices or single stocks with up to 7x leverage factor.

For this DLC trade, I bought 480,000 shares of the 7X Short Hang Seng Index DLC at $1.535. The next day, I sold them at $1.572, reaping a total profit of SGD $16,716.






The second trade is an intra-day trade I did today, 31 May 2019. I shorted Hang Seng Index at 27096 with Phillip CFD, and covered the positions within the same day with an intra-day profit of HKD$19,765 (approx. SGD$3400).




Hence you can see that trading doesn't have to be complicated. With a simple trade plan, we can all trade better!

Today is the last day for you to lock in the promotional rate for our RHO Index Key Levels trading signals. 

It is our proprietary trading robot which gives subscribers step by step guidance to enter their trades, take profit and stop loss.
