Greetings fellow readers!

After 6 months of undergoing a big market correction, the Malaysia stock market has finally made its way back on track, tracing the global market performance. Have you been riding on this bull market after the long wait?

From our previous post, we mentioned on how low is low can the Malaysia stock market index head to;

2017Nov-FBMKLCI-1300x600 (2)

As eventually the Malaysia stock market need to come back on to it’s right track, let us take a look at this market bigger picture using the weekly chart of FBMKLCI.

Year 2011 – EU Debt Crisis had brought the index down from 1,597 to 1,310 pts supported at its weekly EMA200weeks.

Year 2012/13/14 – Bull Market Rallies

Year 2015 – Crude Oil Crisis had brought the index down from 1,867 to 1,500 pts breaking down support at its weekly EMA200weeks 1, 700 pts.

Year 2016 – Bearish to sideways market

Year 2017 – The index broke up of its weekly EMA200weeks 1,685 and rallied towards 1,796 highest on May 2017.

Year 2017 – 2018 – Since June 2017, the index has been in a big cycle of correction up till today closing at 1,719 pts.

As a result, the index did not violate its technical support of 1,700 pts weekly EMA200weeks. The FBMKLCI rallied from 1,708pts -> 1,840pts on the 9th January 2018. That’s a good +7.7% gain for the start.

How does the FBMKLCI weekly chart looks like now?

2018Jan-FBMKLCI-800x600

The historical high for the FBMKLCI stands at 1,896pts from the Year 2014 high.

Will the index test its historical high or even create another historical high above 2,000pts?

Yes it will! But the market does not move up on a straight line but consist of multiple ups (rallies) and downs (corrections). At the current stage the index is in the down (correction) comfortably looking at the support of 1,813pts for a quick correction leading to further rally. Else a longer one will be looking at the support of 1,795pts support. GENERALLY the overall trend on the FBMKLCI for year 2018 = Bull market (Uptrend market).
