(A) Weekly Market Analysis (sent to you by email)

Quick Links (click here):

Robert has pulled together a small collection of technical analysis indicators and charts to give us a view of the state of health of the overall market. This helps determine whether the market is healthy (as in a bull market), or not healthy (as in a bear market).

The analysis uses tools, concepts and ideas from Stan Weinstein, Daryl Guppy, Jake Bernstein, and Colin Twiggs. And it uses the BullCharts charting software to display the price charts. You can view the public overview analysis here

As a part of his own trading strategy, Robert does a detailed analysis in the same format on a weekly basis, and posts the updated observations in the Members Area of the Share Market Toolbox for authorised Toolbox Members to see.
Robert also sends a weekly summary comment by email to all registered Toolbox Users (ie. all Toolbox Members plus registered casual visitors).

Is this type of analysis useful?

As a part of his regular investing and trading routine, Robert looks at the Aussie share market in a few different ways.

On a weekly basis, Robert views a handful of price charts of our major market index. These are previewed in the public high-level analysis mentioned at left.

His analysis of Bull and Bear markets (also mentioned at left) has led to a few conclusions. One of which is that we need to be both a little numble, and rather sensible with our investing.

If we can see a bear market developing, we should consider changing some, or all, of our stocks into cash to ride out the storm. This is protecting our capital from downside risk. If the market starts falling, who knows how far it will fall before recovering to new highs? But, of course, the action we take should be according to our own investing and trading strategy which needs to be written down somewhere.

The weekly analysis Robert uses here is so that we can be on the lookout for possible bear markets - to avoid them. And for bull markets to exploit.

Here Robert studies the All Ordinaries (XAO) index - but why? Well, it is the top 500 stocks in the Aussie market. If the index is moving up, it means that a number of key stocks within the index are rising. And conversely, if the index is falling, then a number of key stocks in the index are falling.

If we watch the XAO index, and take note of what it is doing, it gives us a reasonable understanding of the market as a whole. Some people use this as a "filter". That is, if the analysis says we are in a falling market, then they do not buy into the market.

If a healthy bull market is under way, then it is different to an unhealthy bear market. This can help to guide our investment decisions.

And, this type of analysis can be applied to individual company price charts, not just the market index.
