Genting SP
Genting SP is a good example where a text book perfect setup is not infallible !
On Feb 19, Genting closed with a bullish star. The next day, the bullish star turned into morning star ( circled ) - a pretty strong bullish reversal candlestick pattern. Unfortunately, the next four days' move has proven the technical signal wrong. On Friday, my stop loss at $0.88 was triggered. When I relook at the chart today, I think my stop loss should have been placed at $0.87 instead (see the thick blue line). 1 cent diff has caused all my profit gained from SembMar to have wiped by Genting !
Despite the losses ( which was offset by the gain from SembMar ), I have no regret given this counter a try. The technical signal was so compelling and that it was text book perfect.
Anyway, if $0 .87 is taken, the next support is $0.78.
