This suggests some increased of capital inflow, and it will generally help lifting the market sentiment. Which, indirectly, a positive element for the performance of individual counters.

As indicated by A, price of Dialog is now testing the RM2.36~RM2.42 again, and if price could break above this level, it would be making a historical new high, thus the uptrend could continue. Technically, as long as price is still supported by the 14, 21, 31 EMA, it is a good idea to hold.

As for those whom are interested in taking up new position, an ideal buy signal would be a new formation of higher-low, or new high, and preferably with strong volume. As for those whom are already in position, as long as price is still rising, it is a good idea to practice the trailing stop method by using the 14, 21, 31 EMA, and gradually lifting the profit taking level or the cut loss level according by the 14, 21, 31 EMA.

Due to the flat movement of Dialog for the past two months, it is not advisable to use the 14, 21, 31 EMA for new investors whom are taking up new position. A more suitable base line should be at RM2.15. New investors should only be using the 14, 21, 31 EMA as a trailing stop when price started rising.

Conclusion:

It is said that most of the time, the stock market performance is usually thematic. For example, a few months back, Properties stocks were among the favorite of investors, but not all nearly 90 properties counter were trending up. For now, the outlook for oil and gas related industry remains positive, but out of 20+ O&G related counters, those that are trending down, or moving is sideways still outnumbered those that are trending up. One may wonder, out of many brands of television set, a consumer would spend a considerable time and effort to pick the best one, but sadly the same person might not be spending enough time to pick his O&G stock.
