Regional and Europe firm but no significant clear direction to jump start our mkt. Prices in-and-out of flat line. DJ small gains also fail to trigger interest yet.

So quiet. Volumes mostly from roll activities -Aug 80% roll while Sep 95% roll. While local sentiment remains cautious after a 20-point gain on Monday, kwailow roll this mth indicates that they r actually more bullish than the previous mth. Therefore, providing support near 1170 indirectly.

Chart stays same same. Minor positive signs are appearing, like 7SMA is positive for the first time in 7-day. But of course no crossover yet.

A VERY quiet day, players are satisfied to keep the mkt at a neutral range and wait for next week.

A negative week, -2%, and holding above 1150. Negative outlook continues unless the mkt can clear 1170 next week.- green area. In the meantime, downwad momentum and risk will expand to 1120++ ( 50% adjustment ) next week if 1150 fails to hold.
Short-term selling below 1150 is recommended early next week.

Too vague and complicated…I think just stick to charting. (Read more inside ..)
