JSE TOP 40 Index Update – 25 Sep 2024

The recent gains have been everything but a classic trending bull market. Overlapping and volatile gains can be defined by a price channel. Whilst this type of price action is common in corrections and consolidations, it is quite rare during general upside and making new highs. The most plausible alternative/explanation for his is that a large and long term upward sloping wedge is forming. The illustrated scenarios are self- explanatory.

The intention of this analysis is to give the reader a visual picture of the most probable price path that could develop over time. This is enhanced by adding crucial levels where the proposed view becomes dubious and needs to be re-assessed (or confirmed). The benefit of this approach is that of an easy to understand and almost instantaneous grasp of the analysts view. This kind of analysis is not intended to be exact in predicting levels, and especially timing of moves, but to give a more general probability view that is easily understandable and unambiguous. The proposed “roadmap” gets adjusted over time as new price information becomes available. All technical views have re-assessment or negation levels where the proposed preference is no longer valid or needs to be re-assessed.
