Hi Lionel
There are 2 gaps that needs to be closed. The daily @ R1-62 and the other at R1-45. It would be good if both closed, but the daily is the important one @ R1-62. I am happy with the R1-67 entry too.
OK thank you

Hi Pilot..
1st off I'm long MTN from this morning's bounce off R48.70 area & it was a convincing 1 for me...
I don't see much more downside...My reasoning is purely T/analysis volume & price action at levels the above becoming a major 1.
My stop will be a close below R47.65.
Maybe I'm missing something....?
Anyone need a heads up...!

Changed entry price for ASC to R1-67.
Posted 14 April 2020 - 01:14 PM
Making some changes to the Long and Short portfolios this morning.
Selling full position in AMS @ R880-00 and JBL @ R0-57 for the Long portfolio, and buying ASC @ R150 or opening price, whichever triggers first. ASC has been added to the watch list and has superior growth and risk/reward figures. This would give the long portfolio a 18,1% holding in ASC.
See http://www.sharechat...c/#entry291511 for more info.
Selling all FSR @ R40-25 and OMU @ R11-67 shares and buying MTN @ R51-42 for the short portfolio..
MTN shows the highest negative growth currently and has more downside potential than FSR and OMU.
If trades don't trigger at the prices given, it will be done at the day's close.

@PilotPilot, thanks for the great initiative and insights. Can you clarify how one should read the following line (ZAR weakness or strength)
17.9689 USD/ZAR 156.9%
Hi Shi
This is Rand weakness, meaning that the Rand will further weaken at a rate of 156% per annum. We will continue with this very strong weakening trend vs the dollar. All the calculations are done to predict a growth rate and it is expressed over a year period.
But this does not mean that the Rand will weaken to R17-97 + 156,9% = R46-16. The 156,9% is only the rate it will change at, (Growth rate). This is a scary figure at the moment.
The other important factor is the trading range, which is not shown because of confidentiality reasons.
I will tell you though that the trading range for the USD/ZAR is projected between R13-78 and R22-51. These are the upper and lower limits, and we are still 25% off the upper limit. What the program predicts is that we will weaken at 156% per annum rate up to the trading limit of R22-51, which should be upper limit. This value does change on a daily basis and are adjusted by the program.
The rate at which the Rand is weakening is a scary figure at the moment, but the program is pretty much spot on, as we had the Moody's downgrade, which is causing International fund managers to exit their positions within a 30 day period, to abide by their Fund Mandates.
Keep and eye out for the Gold, Platinum and other Rand hedged stocks over the next couple of weeks. They should be doing very well up until the R22-51/dollar level.
The other scenario is if this level gets broken. This would surely add rocket fuel to this price, and heaven behold what will happen then.
Hope this explains it.

Hi Pilot, what do you have in your short portfolio as a replacement to Sasol at the moment?
Hi Spell Jammer,
Sasol is in the Long portfolio and I am replacing it with ANG and NHM. They have predicted growth of 100% and 60% respectively.
The reason I am doing it is because Sasol only has 20% growth to R69-00 currently.
On the short portfolio, MTN and PSG has the most downside potential.

Closing full position in SOL@ R57-20 and buying ANG @ R358-20 and NHM @ R80-50 in equal portions for the Long portfolio.
SOL is only showing 20% growth to R69-00 target price.

Hi Spell Jammer
CFR (R96-80) is not at the best place to short, but had more downside potential than the other 2 shares in the short portfolio. It is also in the non-essential space, which makes sense given the current situation with Covid-19.
It is showing a projected price of R87-00 in a years time (about -10% down from current levels) and is currently trading midway in its trading range of R73-40 to R124-00. This is a very wide trading range, as most shares currently are, and these are the ultimate trading prices.
Thanks for the feedback. Much appreciated.

Selling both positions in BVT @ R138-00 and GRT @ R11-86 for the short portfolio.
Buying CFR @ R98-20.
or @ the closing price today if they don't trade
Both BVT and GRT is at their lower support levels and CFR has more downside risk than those two.

Pretty impressive bud ....Nicely Done.
It appears as though the core mechanics of your system seem to be functioning & profitable.
The little you mention where the human element would come in also is interesting & if I understand correctly would of made an improvement in the returns.
Again nicely done....Enjoy the satisfaction of your hard slog & 000's of hrs getting to this point.
I hope the Missus is pleased also...
Thanks a lot Soutie!
No Missus here.......yet!
