Standard Life Aberdeen PLC (LON: SLA) - Analysis


Recommended Posts

Hi,

I'm fairly new to the community and I've started out looking into stocks I'm familiar with. One of these is Standard Life Aberdeen PLC (LON: SLA). In the screenshot below you can a general (albeitvery gradual) uptrend on the Daily chart since late-March 2020 which I've highlighted in Green. However, since mid-February 2021 there has been an intra-trend move downwards (highlighted in Red) and these points look set to cross in the coming days.

Thoughts

My natural bias is towards being bullish on this stock. But I'm waiting to see how the shareprice behaves over the next week. So I'm interested to see what other think on this stock and if there are other factors you think are important to consider?

 

Have a good weekend anyway folks.

Update

Having traded sideways over the past couple of weeks the price approaches to top of the intra-trend downward move (as discussed in the original post). My view is that the uptrend is holding and I have taken a long position in this stock.

Thoughts

As the price has broken through the downward trendline and held at support trendlines (highlight in yellow) this feels like a good buying opportunity. Additionally, at around the 270p price-level there has been continued support.

The stop loss is set at 254p which is the 13-May-2021 low for the day. The target is 330p which is in the region of the late-February/early-March highs.

    • Arguably, the first principle is Do Your Own Research (DYOR). Though this is not to say that “invest what you can afford to lose" is any less important yah. Aside from FA, I also use TA when I want to DCA in on any project and I also pay attention to the tokenomics. Lastly. timing is important, so i like to be an early bird in any projected im interested in. Thats why i keep up with Bitget exchange cos they are timely in listing projects yah.
    • Interesting, seems like a good avenue to increase my equity so how can i participate in the campaign?
    • Dive into DAX's record-breaking run, fuelled by Eurozone inflation easing. Explore market dynamics, technical analysis, and potential risks.   Source: Bloomberg   Indices Inflation DAX Eurozone Technical analysis Interest  Tony Sycamore | Market Analyst, Australia | Publication date: Tuesday 05 December 2023 05:46 Last week marked a historic fifth consecutive gain for the DAX, echoing patterns not seen since October 2022. The DAX’s gains last week were supported by a Eurozone inflation report, which showed inflation eased to 2.4% in November, its lowest level since July 2021. Core inflation fell to 3.6% in November from 4.2% in October. With disinflation in Europe playing out much like in the US, it's no surprise that the European interest rate curve is pricing in five 25bp ECB rate cuts by the end of 2024. The UK rates market isn’t quite as excited about BoE rate cuts. Although headline inflation has fallen from 10.7% to 4.6% last month, core inflation at 5.7% is still too high. This explains why the UK rates market is pricing in just two and a half BoE rate cuts in 2024. The contrasting inflation and interest rate outlook between the Eurozone and the UK helps to explain why the DAX gained 9.41% in November while the FTSE gained only 1.8% during the same time. FTSE daily chart   DAX technical analysis Like its US counterpart, the S&P 500, the DAX has gotten very close, but thus far, failed to break above its year-to-date highs. As viewed on the RSI, the DAX is at extremely overbought levels, and while we remain bullish into year-end, we would not contemplate opening fresh longs at these levels. Instead, we would prefer to use dips back towards support at 16,100/16,000, looking for the DAX to retest and break above the 16,615 July high in the weeks ahead. Aware that a sustained break below the support of the 200-day moving average at 15782 would warn that the rally has run its course and that a deeper pullback is underway.
