How Elliott Wave Principle Can Improve Your Trading

The following article is an excerpt from Elliott Wave International's Trader's Classroom Collection.
 
Every trader, every analyst and every technician has favorite techniques to use when trading. But where traditional technical studies fall short, the Wave Principle kicks in to show high probability price targets and, just as importantly, how to distinguish high probability trade setups from the ones that traders should ignore.
 
Where Technical Studies Fall Short
There are three categories of technical studies: trend-following indicators, oscillators and sentiment indicators. Trend-following indicators include moving averages, Moving Average Convergence-Divergence (MACD) and Directional Movement Index (ADX). A few of the more popular oscillators many traders use today are Stochastics, Rate-of-Change and the Commodity Channel Index (CCI). Sentiment indicators include Put-Call ratios and Commitment of Traders report data.
 
Technical studies like these do a good job of illuminating the way for traders, yet they each fall short for one major reason: they limit the scope of a trader’s understanding of current price action and how it relates to the overall picture of a market. For example, let’s say the MACD reading in XYZ stock is positive, indicating the trend is up. That’s useful information, but wouldn’t it be more useful if it could also help to answer these questions: Is this a new trend or an old trend? If the trend is up, how far will it go? Most technical studies simply don’t reveal pertinent information such as the maturity of a trend and a definable price target -- but the Wave Principle does.
 
How Does the Wave Principle Improve Trading?
Here are five ways the Wave Principle improves trading:
 
1. Identifies Trend – The Wave Principle identifies the direction of the dominant trend. A five-wave advance identifies the overall trend as up. Conversely, a five-wave decline determines that the larger trend is down. Why is this information important? Because it is easier to trade in the direction of the overriding trend, since it is the path of least resistance and undoubtedly explains the saying, “the trend is your friend.” Simply put, the probability of a successful commodity trade is much greater if a trader is long Soybeans when the other grains are rallying.
 
2. Identifies Countertrend – The Wave Principle also identifies countertrend moves. The three-wave pattern is a corrective response to the preceding impulse wave. Knowing that a recent move in price is merely a correction within a larger trending market is especially important for traders, because corrections are opportunities for traders to position themselves in the direction of the larger trend of a market.
 
3. Determines Maturity of a Trend – As Elliott observed, wave patterns form larger and smaller versions of themselves. This repetition in form means that price activity is fractal, as illustrated in Figure 1. Wave (1) subdivides into five small waves, yet is part of a larger five-wave pattern. How is this information useful? It helps traders recognize the maturity of a trend. If prices are advancing in wave 5 of a five-wave advance for example, and wave 5 has already completed three or four smaller waves, a trader knows this is not the time to add long positions. Instead, it may be time to take profits or at least to raise protective stops.
 
Since the Wave Principle identifies trend, countertrend, and the maturity of a trend, it’s no surprise that the Wave Principle also signals the return of the dominant trend. Once a countertrend move unfolds in three waves (A-B-C), this structure can signal the point where the dominant trend has resumed, namely, once price action exceeds the extreme of wave B. Knowing precisely when a trend has resumed brings an added benefit: It increases the probability of a successful trade, which is further enhanced when accompanied by traditional technical studies.

Market Review
Rallynya yang signifikan di IHSG sehingga sempat mencapai rekor tertinggi baru sejak Februari 2008 (2,779), mendorong investor lokal melakukan aksi profit-taking di sejumlah saham unggulan (ASII, SMGR, PGAS, BBCA, TLKM) kemarin. Minimnya sentiment positif dari dalam negeri dan pelemahan indeks saham regional Asia dan Eropa kemarin, dari imbas kekhawatiran munculnya kembali krisis fiskal di Yunani, mengacuhkan kenaikan Wall Street pada hari Rabu, ikut membebani kinerja IHSG di akhir pekan ini. Rupiah mengalami pelemahan terhadap dolar AS, ditutup di level Rp 9.120. Hanya indeks saham pertambangan dan property yang mengalami kenaikan, menopang kinerja IHSG, menahan laju koreksi penurunan di sektor infrastruktur, perkebunan dan aneka industry. Isu right issue dari BMRI dan BBNI ikut memberikan support kepada cepat di awal pekan ini. IHSG terpuruk 19,020poin(-0,69%), di 2.737,242,transaksi sebesar Rp 5,67triliun. Investor kembali mencetak net buy sebesar Rp
635,495 miliar, dibandingkan net buy sebesar Rp 992,048 miliar (17/03), sehingga total net buying pekan ini menjadi Rp 1,8115 triliun.

Mayoritas indeks saham di regional Asia terkoreksi kemarin, dipimpin oleh eksportir dan perusahaan real estate Jepang, di tengah kekhawatiran kenaikan indeks saham Asia saat ini yang telah mencapai level tertinggi 2 bulan telah melampaui prospek untuk pertumbuhan pendapatan. Imbas melemahnya euro di tengah spekulasi Yunani mungkin meminta bantuan financial dari International Monetary Fund (IMF), ikut membebani kinerja Indeks saham MSCI Asia Pasific terkoreksi 0,3% menjadi 124,58. Indeks Nikkei 225 anjlok 1,1%, komposit Shanghai terkoreksi 0,1%, Hong Kong terkoreksi 0,3%.

IHSG Outlook
Momentum kenaikan IHSG terlihat mulai melemah dan dapat membatasi potensi kenaikan di akhir pekan ini, di tengah minimnya sentiment dari dalam negeri dan mulai meningkatnya sentiment negatif dari luar negeri, dimana kekhawatiran terhadap krisis fiskal di Yunani setelah Yunani dilaporkan mungkin akan meminta bantuan finansial dari International Monetary Fund (IMF) dan kekhawatiran Yunani akan gagal mendapatkan bantuan dari Uni Eropa, mahalnya valuasi indeks saham MSCI Asia Pasific (tertinggi sejak 1995) spekulasi kenaikan suku bunga China dan suku bunga diskonto AS di bulan depan, hingga batalnya kunjungan Presiden AS Barack Obama ke Indonesia yang semula dijadwalkan 23-25 Maret (ditunda hingga bulan Juni 2010), diperkirakan masih membebani kinerja IHSG di pekan ini. Meski IHSG masih mendapatkan support dari solidnya kinerja fundamental ekonomi (pemerintah dan BI menaikkan prediksi GDP 2010, prediksi GDP Q1 2010 sebesar 5,1%-5,3%), positifnya kinerja emiten unggulan (laporan keuangan, right issue dan rencana pembagian dividen), kuatnya aliran dana masuk ke pasar modal domestik dari ekspektasi langkah the Fed menahan suku bunga nol persen hingga akhir tahun sehingga meningkatkan daya tarik untuk saham di Negara emerging (termasuk Indonesia), kenaikan harga komoditas global (minyak target $84/90) dapat support kinerja IHSG.

Global  Outlook
Momentum kenaikan indeks saham regional Asia dan Wall Street diperkirakan tertahan pada hari ini, dimana munculnya kekhawatiran terhadap krisis fiscal di Yunani setelah Yunani dilaporkan akan meminta bantuan financial kepada IMF dan kemungkinan akan gagal mendapatkan jaminan bantuan dari Uni Eropa setelah terjadi perpecahan diantara Negara anggota mengenai bantuan kepada Yunani, diikuti kekhawatiran potensi kenaikan suku bunga diskonto AS di bulan depan (The Fed bulan lalu menaikkan suku bunga diskonto 25 bsp menjadi 0,50%) sebelum pertemuan FOMC 28 April mendatang. Meski saham Wall Street semalam menguat berkat positifnya sejumlah laporan ekonomi, seperti Jobless Claims terkoreksi 5K menjadi 457K, Leading Indicator meningkat 0,1%, Phily Fed naik ke 18,9, CPI (inflasi) terkoreksi ke 0,0%, seharusnya masih menopang kinerja saham Wall Street (trend bullish DJIA: target 11.150) di akhir pekan ini. Minimnya data ekonomi global hari ini, mendorong investor akan mengamati quadruple witching expiry (option, fisik, futures) dan perkembangan di Yunani, dapat picu aksi profit taking lebih lanjut.

Technical Analysis:
IHSG menunjukkan signal negatif dari pola ark cloud cover (momentum kenaikan terbatas),  berada di atas channel support di 2.626dan dalam uptrend channel, ditutup di atas 2.699 (5-day MA), seharusnya membatasi potensi penurunan. Kondisi tersebut didukung ADX meningkat (momentum kenaikan melemah), stochastic crossover overbought, MACD bullish, menunjukkan potensi kenaikan kian terbatas. Hitungan EW: tercapainya high 2.779 menunjukkan extendnya v/3 – 5 kemungkinan telah berakhir, seharusnya saat ini berada dalam korek ABC dalam iv/5. Support di 2.700/2.683. Analisa W.Gann menunjukkan target 3.150 di Q2/Q3 2010, jika ditutup diatas 2.735 (FR 161.8%) di bulan ini. (+20p+45p). Hold Sell 2.773-2.800 target 2.700 stop di 2.800.
Resistance: 2806.02/2788.82/2771.63/2758.30. PP 2744.97

0448 GMT [Dow Jones] Nikkei up 0.6% at 10,807.01, little changed from morning close of 10,815.52, with investors staying on sidelines before 3-day weekend; Nikkei may hover near March futures and options settlement price (last Friday) of 10,808 for some time, says trader at Japanese brokerage. "At least until U.S. jobs data is out (in April), the Japanese market may see few trading cues as investors won't take large positions before the fiscal year ends (this month)," he says. Nikkei recouping some of yesterday's losses, but investors still cautious due to Greece's debt problems.

0900 GMT [Dow Jones] After several failed attempts to break and hold above 1.53 this week GBP/USD has a heavy feel to it Friday and sinks to a low of 1.5140. Overnight dovish comments from arch MPC hawk Andrew Sentance that there are some risks of a double-dip recession in the UK haven't helped the pound, while position trimming ahead of the weekend's latest election polls is also a likely contributor to the fall. Next support comes in 1.5105. (gary.stride@dowjones.com)

0847 GMT [Dow Jones] Look for USD/JPY to fall under 90 next week, says RBS.

LONDON (Dow Jones)--The Swiss franc is edging up to its strongest level on record against the euro, putting market watchers on alert for a fresh intervention from the Swiss National Bank to shove it back down. An apparent softening in the SNB's opposition to Swiss franc strength has boosted the currency in the past two days, leaving the euro nudging below CHF1.4350 in European trading hours Friday--its weakest level in 16 months. Now, with the euro edging ever closer to its all-time low against the franc at CHF1.43, the risk of an intervention to slow the climb is building. "The speed at which the euro has been easing against the Swiss franc over the past few days is likely to be far too high for the central bank's taste," said currency analysts at Commerzbank in Frankfurt Friday. At 1005 GMT, the euro was falling fast at CHF1.4339, from around CHF1.44 late in New York Thursday.

0927 GMT [Dow Jones] The USD is higher and the EUR is backing down from earlier gains as Greece once again weighs on market sentiment. Reports that Germany will support an IMF package for the debt-ridden country appears to have only added to the confusion over how and when aid will emerge. The GBP is hit by warning from a BOE MPC member that there could be a double-dip recession. The market remains on alert for SNB intervention as the EUR continues to slip against the CHF. The USD is up at Y90.48 while the EUR is down at $1.3592. The GBP is down at $1.5142 while the EUR is down at CHF1.4365.(nick.hastings@dowjones.com)

0332 GMT [Dow Jones] NZD/USD sticking to fairly tight range, last 0.7145 vs 0.7136 late yesterday; "It has been pretty steady today, it's obviously not falling back. There is still a little bit of risk appetite out there. More importantly, there is still a little bit of anti U.S. dollar sentiment," says Custom House Western Union dealer Chris Hunter. Tips support to hold at 0.7125, resistance around 0.7170. Says ongoing risk appetite slightly surprising given concerns about Greece, in particular after talk country could seek aid from IMF. Adds given absence of major data in offshore markets later in global day market attention will remain on Greece. (rebecca.howard@dowjones.com)

0455 GMT [Dow Jones] EUR up vs USD, JPY as Japanese short-term investors trim EUR-downside bets as hedge against outside chance of any rises into early next week; but buying merely safety precaution ahead of Japanese market closure Monday, says senior FX dealer at major European bank. "The Japanese players buying the euro today are doing so just because Monday is a market closure in Japan, and they don't want to be caught without any hedges just in case there would be any euro-positive developments while they're on holiday." But says EUR downtrend intact. Other dealers concur. Senior trader at Japan trust bank tips any further EUR/USD rises capped at 1.3650 vs last 1.3623, EUR/JPY cap at 123.50 vs 123.24.(andrew.monahan@dowjones.com)

Market Review
Meningkatnya keyakinan investor terhadap pasar modal di Indonesia, mengikuti sejumlah katalis positif dari dalam dan luar negeri, seperti kenaikan peringkat utang RI oleh Standard & Poors, solidnya kinerja emiten domestic di tahun 2009 (termasuk pembagian dividen) hingga rencana kunjungan Presiden AS Obama ke tanah air yang mendorong ekspektasi meningkatnya kerjasama hubungan bisnis & investasi Indonesia-AS, diikuti the Fed dan bank sentral Jepang masih melanjutkan kebijakan pelonggaran moneter, meredanya kekhawatiran terhadap krisis fiscal di Yunani dan kenaikan harga minyak paska pertemuan OPEC di Vienna semalam, berperan melejitkan IHSG ke level tertinggi 2.756 (tertinggi sejak 28 Februari 2008). Melonjaknya indeks saham regional Asia dan kenaikan indeks DJIA untuk hari ke-7, hingga penguatan rupiah ke level tertinggi Rp 9.099 kemarin, ikut topang kinerja IHSG. Kenaikan saham (ASII, AALI, ITMG, UNTR, BBCA, BBRI, BMRI, PTBA, TLKM, SMGR) hingga saham lapis kedua (BMTR, MNCN, APOL, SDRA, KIAS) kembali dongkrak IHSG. IHSG melejit 86,65poin(+3,25%), di 2.756,262,transaksi sebesar Rp 6,47triliun. Investor kembali mencetak net buy sebesar Rp 992,048 miliar kemarin, sehingga total net buying pekan ini menjadi Rp 1,176 triliun.

Mayoritas indeks saham di regional Asia menguat tajam kemarin, mendorong indeks saham MSCI Asia Pasific ke level tertinggi 2-bulan, karena bank sentral AS berjanji untuk mempertahankan suku bunga rendah dan bank sentral Jepang melanjutkan program kredit. Kenaikan harga komoditas (minyak $ 82.93) hingga pelemahan yen. Indeks MSCI Asia Pasific melonjak 1,5% menjadi 124,83. Bank sentral Jepang meningkatkan fasilitas pinjaman sebesar dua kali lipat menjadi 20 triliun yen (U$ 222 miliar).

IHSG Outlook
Meningkatnya keyakinan investor domestik dan asing terhadap pasar saham domestik, berkat solidnya kinerja ekonomi domestik yang mendorong pemerintah dan Bank Indonesia menaikkan prediksi pertumbuhan ekonomi di tahun ini menjadi 60% (prediksi sebelumnya sebesar 5-5,5%), kenaikan peringkat utang RI menjadi BB oleh Standard & Poors dapat memicu spekulasi kenaikan peringkat utang RI oleh lembaga pemeringkat lainnya, Moodys, kebijakan suku bunga nol persen dipertahankan the Fed dan bank sentral Jepang, menurunkan daya tarik untuk dolar AS sehingga mendorong investor menanamkan dana investasi mereka ke pasar emerging market seperti Indonesia yang dapat menghasilkan yield investasi yang lebih tinggi, asing masih mencetak net buy selama 3 pekan berturut-turut hingga kinerja emiten yang solid di tahun 2009 (cetak kenaikan laba bersih dan pembagian dividen), masih menopang kinerja IHSG di akhir pekan ini. Pengaruh penguatan rupiah terhadap dolar AS (tertinggi Rp 9,099 kemarin, target Rp 9,000/8,700) dari antisipasi kuatnya inflow menjelang rencana kunjungan Presiden AS Obama (21-23 Maret) dan laporan pemerintah menaikkan tenggang waktu untuk kepemilikan rumah oleh warga Negara asing (WNA), kenaikan harga komoditi (target harga minyak $84/90), kenaikan penjualan otomotif, seharusnya dapat support IHSG lebih lanjut.     

Stock Picks:
# BHIT:  Hold                                    #INTP : Outperform 

Global  Outlook
Momentum kenaikan indeks saham regional Asia dan Wall Street masih berlanjut, setelah indeks saham MSCI Asia Pasific mencapai level tertinggi dalam 2 bulan dan indeks Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) mencapai level tertinggi sejak Oktober 2008, berkat bukti pemulihan ekonomi AS tidak mendorong kenaikan inflasi. Kenaikan saham Alcos Inc, Dupont Co, Blackrock Inc (Credit Suisse upgrade rating menjadi “outperform”) hingga Ford Motor Co (Moody’s Investor upgrade rating kredit) hingga anjloknya data inflasi AS (PPI -0,6% m/m), the Fed berkomitmen pertahankan suku bunga nol persen hingga akhir tahun, bank sentral Jepang meningkatkan fasilitas pinjaman menjadi 20 triliun yen (U$ 222 miliar), data pengangguran Claimant Count Inggris anjlok ke level tercepat dalam 2 tahun, merupakan sejumlah katalis positif yang menopang kinerja indeks saham global di akhir pekan ini. Kenaikan harga komoditi (minyak $82,93/barel) mengikuti keputusan OPEC tidak rubah output dan laporan the Energy Information Administration, cadangan minyak AS pekan lalu naik 1 juta barel menjadi 344 juta barel (prediksi analis sebesar kenaikan 1,9 juta barel) kemarin, dapat topang kinerja saham komoditi global.

Technical Analysis:
IHSG menunjukkan signal positif dari pola long bullish marubozu (momentum kenaikan menguat),  berada di atas channel support di 2.615dan dalam uptrend channel, ditutup di atas 2.684 (5-day MA), seharusnya mendukung potensi kenaikan. Kondisi tersebut didukung ADX meningkat (momentum kenaikan menguat), stochastic bullish kendati overbought, MACD bullish, menunjukkan potensi kenaikan masih terbuka. Hitungan EW: tembusnya high 2.735 menunjukkan extendnya v/3 – 5 target 2.773 (high 2008)/2.843 (record high). Support di 2.735/2.695. Analisa W.Gann menunjukkan target 3.150 di Q2/Q3 2010, jika ditutup diatas 2.735 (FR 161.8%) di bulan ini. (+20p). Posisi buy break 2.690 target 2.735. (+45 poin). Sell 2.773-2.800 target 2.700 stop di 2.820.
Resistance: 2857.59/2814.17/2799.69/2785.21. PP  2727.31

STerling gains after better than expected Public Finances

0831 GMT [Dow Jones] EUR/USD remains in an upside corrective mode but needs to stay above 1.3628 to allow a test of key resistance between 1.3845 and 1.3894, says Commerzbank analyst Karen Jones. Above 1.39 would open the topside to 1.4090 and possibly 1.4295-1.4344. However, failure of 1.3628 support should be enough to alleviate immediate upside pressure and open downside risk toward 1.3530 ahead of 1.3445 and 1.3405. EUR/USD now at 1.3678 from the day's low 1.3648. (gary.stride@dowjones.com)

0927 GMT [Dow Jones] USD/JPY remains choppy within its 89.63-91.09 range and, while the former holds, marginal gains must be allowed for, says MIG Bank's Howard Friend.

(gary.stride@dowjones.com)

0912 GMT [Dow Jones] The USD is higher as suggestions that Greece may yet seek aid from the IMF sent the EUR reeling. The latest warning by a Greek official indicates that once again the Greek debt problem is far from being resolved. The GBP, which had been rebounding, is back under selling pressure again. The EUR is down at $1.3665 while the GBP is down at $1.5264. The USD, however, has fallen to Y89.94 as investors seek safe havens. nick.hastings@dowjones.com)

0854 GMT [Dow Jones] Swiss National Bank's failure to counter the ongoing slide in EUR/CHF suggests it may be preparing to abandon its strategy of countering a franc appreciation through intervention, says Commerzbank.

In cash market, Kenichiro Hirano, operating officer at Tachibana Securities says, "The observation is growing that foreign investors who have been supporting the market until now have stopped buying." Mamoru Nakajo, manager at Phoenix Securities says technical resistance for futures equivalent to March settlement price of 10,808. Futures short-term moving average 10,700.(christopher.cushing@dowjones.com)

0443 GMT [Dow Jones] Daiwa Institute of Research says given its upside breakout through March options settlement level (last Friday), Nikkei should enjoy a further rally. Notes tertiary industry activity index had better-than-expected results, and March business conditions diffusion index also improved significantly. Notes (as of yesterday), DJIA continued to rise for 6 straight trading days (1st time since end-2009. "Although this type of short-term strength in share prices could signal a mid-term acceleration in the market, the market may experience a slowdown in the near term." Adds, technicals, such as 25-day Relative Strength Index, suggest rally may lose steam near term.

0442 GMT [Dow Jones] China shares slightly up midday in thin volume, on continued bargain hunting, as monetary-tightening concerns wane. Shanghai Composite Index +0.1% at 3054.56, faces psychological resistance at 3100. "Trading volume is picking up, and the blue chips are seeing more demand, but it will take a lot more funds entering the market to give it a bigger boost," says Zhang Qi from Haitong Securities. Some property developers higher on bargain-hunting after losses in recent sessions; brokerages also rising, buoyed by impending launch of stock index futures. Ping An Insurance (601318.SH) +0.1% at CNY48.35, Baoshan Iron & Steel (600019.SH) +0.1% at CNY8.28. Shenzhen Composite Index +0.4% at 1175.60. (esther.fung@dowjones.com)

But DBS Vickers says STI may struggle to rise much further; "while STI could continue to edge a little higher, the low trading activity, the market rise that has not been broad based and the index now closer to 14.5X FY10 earnings suggest that there may not be much impetus to move far above 2,930." Bank heavyweights among best blue chip performers as their recent lackluster run attracts bargain hunting; DBS (D05.SG) +1.2% at S$14.62, UOB (U11.SG) +1.2% at S$19.20. But Genting Singapore (G13.SG) down 1.0% at S$0.955 as opening of Universal Studios theme park fails to lift stock amid worries over stretched valuation. (kirsty.green@dowjones.com)

0624 GMT [Dow Jones] Morgan Stanley says BOJ's decision to expand monetary policy gives market an impression it is "somewhat behind the curve" in achieving showing its proactive stance to fight against critical problems: 1) deflation, 2) rise in real interest rates and 3) strong yen. "As long as strong yen pressure remains, the BoJ will likely continue to face strong pressure to take further step from both the markets and the Government." Anti-strong yen stance should be stock market supportive, especially vis-a-vis currency market-sensitive exporter shares as FY-end books close for many firms at end-month.

0218 GMT [Dow Jones] Morgan Stanley chief economist Takehiro Sato says house still doesn't rule out chance of 5-10bp rate cut by BOJ in April-June quarter, although few other analysts have raised this as possibility; "although we are notably out of consensus on the above, in order for term rates and, most of all, the tibor to fall, we believe that a rate cut would be a more effective means than measures to encourage a decline in term rates." To reinforce effort to lower term-fund rates, BOJ decided yesterday to raise amount of 3-month fixed-rate operation to Y20 trillion from previous Y10 trillion. Sato says rate cut would be possible if FX, stock markets destabilize before Upper House election in July. USD/JPY now around 90.28, Nikkei ends morning session 0.2% lower at 10,823.94. Chances of BOJ rate cuts likely to be small, as BOJ officials, including Governor Shirakawa, have said current 0.1% policy rate already "virtually zero."(megumi.fujikawa@dowjones.com)

Market Review
Aksi profit-taking menjelang liburan Hari Raya Nyepi (16/03), mendorong laju kenaikan IHSG terbatas pada hari Senin (15/03), dimana sempat mencapai level tertinggi 2.683,107 , meski akhirnya ditutup menguat tipis, setelah mendapatkan sentimen positif dari kenaikan peringkat kredit jangka panjang Indonesia oleh lembaga pemeringkat internasional Standard & Poors menjadi BB dari BB- dan lebih baik dari perkiraan data penjualan ritel AS bulan lalu, diikuti kinerja indeks saham Asia dan Wall Street yang menguat di awal pekan. Kenaikan saham di sektor properti, infrastruktur dan financial, topang IHSG dan membatasi tekanan penjualan di sektor aneka industri, manufaktur, pertambangan, perkebunan, konsumsi dan perdagangan. Rallynya sejumlah saham lapis kedua dan ketiga (SDRA, ASIA, KIAS, ASDM, SCCO) hingga ITMG dan PGAS, ikut topang kenaikan IHSG. IHSG naik 3,097poin(+0,12%), di 2.669,608,transaksi sebesar Rp 2,97triliun.

Mayoritas indeks saham di regional Asia meningkat kemarin, dipimpin oleh saham dari perusahaan financial dan consumer, di tengah spekulasi bank sentral Jepang akan mengambil langkah-langkah untuk mengatasi deflasi. Saham Sony Financial Holdings menguat berkat perusahaan akan meningkatkan kepemilikan obligasi, Toyota Motor Corp, Kia Motors Corp Korea, menguat kemarin. Sun Hung Kai Properties terkoreksi setelah Hong Kong mengambil langkah untuk meredakan harga real-estate. Indeks saham MSCI Asia Pasific naik 0,1% menjadi 122,88 kemarin. Indeks Shanghai naik 0,5%, Taiex Taiwan naik 0,8%, Nikkei 225 & Hang Seng melemah 0,3%.

DJIA 16.03 3% +26.5% 0.25% +2.6% +5.9%

IHSG Outlook
Potensi kenaikan IHSG masih terbuka, dari solidnya pertumbuhan ekonomi dan kinerja emiten (earning & pemberian dividen 2009) domestik hingga situasi sosial politik di dalam negeri, dapat meningkatkan keyakinan investor lokal dan asing masuk ke pasar modal, dapat mendorong aliran dana masuk ke Bursa Efek Indonesia (BEI) di pekan ini. Sementara potensi penguatan rupiah terhadap dolar AS (target Rp 9.000/9.100), berkat katalis positif dari pelemahan dolar AS terhadap mata uang Eropa dan Asia, penurunan CDS (credit default swap) Indonesia ke 155,87 hingga kenaikan peringkat kredit RI menjadi BB dari BB- oleh Standard Poors (akan diikuti Moodys di bulan mendatang), topang kinerja IHSG di pekan ini. Sejumlah perkembangan yang positif dari bantuan Uni Eropa kepada Yunani, rencana pemerintah Jepang mengatasi deflasi hingga The Fed AS akan pertahankan suku bunga di nol persen untuk menjaga pemulihan ekonomi, seharusnya memberikan support kepada IHSG. Meski
faktor teknikal yang overbought dalam trend bullish, dapat membatasi laju kenaikan IHSG di pekan ini, dibayangi kekhawatiran potensi kenaikan suku bunga China di bulan depan.

Global  Outlook

Indeks saham regional Asia, Eropa hingga Wall Street diperkirakan masih mempertahankan momentum bullish jangka pendek di awal pekan ini, berkat the Fed AS masih mempertahankan suku bunga di kisaran nol persen hingga waktu yang lebih lama untuk menjaga pemulihan ekonomi, meredanya kekhawatiran terhadap ancaman penurunan rating kredit Yunani oleh Standard & Poors berkat usaha untuk mengurangi deficit anggaran dan Uni Eropa berjanji memberikan bantuan kepada Yunani kemarin hingga spekulasi bank sentral Jepang akan mengambil langkah untuk mengatasi deflasi di Jepang, dimana masih mendukung perkiraan stimulus global masih akan meningkat di bulan mendatang dan dipertahankan hingga ada jaminan pemulihan ekonomi terjaga. Hasil riset dari Bank of America Merrill Lynch menunjukkan risk appetite meningkat karena meredanya kekhawatiran bahwa suku bunga akan meningkat di akhir tahun ini, mendorong investor memangkas kepemilikan cash (tunai) dan membeli saham. Meski kekhawatiran terhadap sektor perumahan AS (pernyataan analis Whitney) dan spekulasi kenaikan suku bunga China, dapat membatasi momentum kenaikan indeks saham global.

Technical Analysis:
IHSG menunjukkan signal positif dari pola candle spinning top (momentum penurunan terbatas),  berada di atas channel support di 2.602dan dalam uptrend channel, ditutup di atas 2.664 (5-day MA), seharusnya mendukung potensi kenaikan. Kondisi tersebut didukung ADX meningkat (momentum kenaikan mereda), stochastic bullish kendati overbought, MACD bullish, menunjukkan potensi kenaikan masih terbuka. Hitungan EW: tembusnya high 2.619 menunjukkan wave iv/3 dalam impulse final 5 kemungkinan berakhir untuk proses v/3 – 5 target 2.689/2.735 (161.8 Fibo). Support di 2.645/2.620. Analisa W.Gann menunjukkan target 3.150 di Q2/Q3 2010, jika ditutup diatas 2.735 (FR 161.8%) di bulan ini. Hold Sell  2.670/2.689 target 2.600 (+20p).

Such sectors as real estate and consumer finance will likely stay stronger mid-term as easy monetary policy, aimed at fighting deflation, boosts liquidity, enabling consumers to buy condos and increase general spending, he adds. Topix onsumer lending subindex leading board with 2.0% gain, real estate subindex also up 0.7%; Orix (8591.TO) up 2.8% to Y7,430. Mitsui Fudosan (8801.TO) up 0.9% to Y1,643.

0420 GMT [Dow Jones] HSI extends gains, now +1.6% at 21,350.23, though size of gains not noteworthy, index breaches extremely narrow 21,000-21,300 band held for past 7 sessions (though break yet to be confirmed with a close above range). Technicals likely to attract more buyers as such a break usually implies extension of gains or losses (depending on direction of break); aided by likely short-covering or investors cutting position on longs.

0456 GMT [Dow Jones] Kospi +1.3% at 1668.66 in light volume on hefty stock, futures buying by foreigners; led by renewed hopes for global liquidity to stay ample for a while after Fed's reassurance to keep low rate for "extended period," appointment of "government-friendly" OECD ambassador Kim Choong-soo as BOK chief, says Bae Sung-young at Hyundai Securities; expects Kospi's uptrend remain intact, but looks hard to break above year's high around 1700 as there's still uncertainty about global economic outlook. Techs highs, tracking U.S. peers after recent weakness; Samsung Electronics (005930.SE) +2.9% at KRW787,000, LG Display (034220.SE) +3.4% at KRW38,000 on foreign buying; Woori Finance (053000.SE) +4.8% at KRW15,200, outperforming peers on hopes for high profit earnings generated from Samsung Life Insurance IPO in May following Korea Life's (088350.SE), last +2.6% at KRW8,930, successful debut on Kospi today, says Ko Yong-uk at Daewoo Securities; notes Woori Bank has stake in Samsung.

0433 GMT [Dow Jones] Macquarie says its 12-month Topix target remains 1,050, which discounts the slow recovery cycle to FY ending March 2012. Topix at 1,050 correlates with 19X house's FY ending March 2011 expected EPS of Y55, and 16X its FY ending March 2012 expected EPS of Y65. Expects FY ending March 2013 Topix earnings to return to their FY ending 2006-2008 high plateau of about Y75. "The Japanese bull is enjoying climbing the hill, but is still dependent on global markets to lead the way. Our base case remains domestic policy passivity." Nikkei 225 Stock Average now +0.6% at 10,787.46, +2.3% for 2010; Topix +0.5% at 943.04; +3.9% for 2010. (bradford.frischkorn@dowjones.com)

0443 GMT [Dow Jones] Singapore shares extend gains as solid rises for key regional bourses underpin initial boost from hopes U.S. interest rates to stay low for some time. STI +0.6% at 2,914.60 at midday vs morning low of 2,896.57 (flat) with resistance tipped at 2010 high of 2,947.

0855 GMT 0000 GMT - EUR/USD is not having much luck hanging on to its post-Greece rescue package gains, says UniCredit. Suggests the pair needs to at least break over 1.3840 "to get more convinced to go long here." The pair is now at 1.3781. 

0844 GMT [Dow Jones] Sterling has outperformed over the past 24 hours but now faces the hurdle of BOE minutes and labor data. RBS notes the MPC voted 9-0 in February to pause QE and this will likely also be the case in March. However, given the growing difference of opinion on QE among the MPC the bank says the discussion will be of interest. As for the labour data, RBS says while a better-than-expected print could see the pound rise further Wednesday, there are still plenty of reasons to expect further weakness in the week's ahead. GBP/USD now trades at 1.5222; EUR/GBP at 0.9051.(gary.stride@dowjones.com)

0812 GMT [Dow Jones] GBP/USD made strong gains Tuesday and has started to erode its downtrend says Commerzbank analyst Karen Jones. It's now at 1.5255. The spot faces immediate resistance at 1.5275 and a break above here should trigger a deeper retracement toward 1.5575 and 1.5690. Alternatively, failure to overcome 1.5275 leaves the rate vulnerable toward Tuesday's low of 1.4975. GBP/USD now trades at 1.5215. (gary.stride@dowjones.com) 

0433 GMT [Dow Jones] USD/JPY's profit-taking drop after BOJ easing, to as low as 90.02 from 90.40 on EBS, likely short-lived as market focuses on other USD-positives like continued strength in Japanese shares; Nikkei 225 off highs but still +0.6%. "As this was widely expected, the dollar-yen's decline was just driven by the sell-on-the-fact after players bought the currency on a rumor," says Nomura Securities senior dealer Hiroshi Maeba. Expects pair may stick to 89.00-91.00 range in longer-term. Support at 89.80 vs last 90.30. EUR/JPY support put at 124.00 vs 124.41. (miho.nakauchi@dowjones.com)

0532 GMT [Dow Jones] USD/JPY up as hedge funds, Japan institutional players buy pair as thick support around 90.00 held, causing them to get behind USD buying, says senior dealer at major Tokyo bank; "even though the BOJ's monetary easing was widely expected, that was also used as players' cue to buy back" USD. Resistance at 91.00 -- where Japan exporter sell-orders lie vs last 90.53. Another dealer notes USD/JPY likely to move in core range of 90.00-91.00 with lack of direction in coming week due to falling expectations Fed will hike rates anytime soon, after FOMC meeting overnight, coupled with BOJ's additional monetary easing. EUR/JPY rises in tandem with USD/JPY, topside at 125.00 vs last 124.81. (miho.nakauchi@dowjones.com)

0425 GMT [Dow Jones] Spot gold higher at $1,128.40/oz, up $2.50 vs NY close. Market "pretty directionless post-FOMC, much of the rise came before the announcement," says ScotiaMocatta precious metals director Peter Tse. Adds March traditionally quiet trading month for gold, other metals; tips gold to stay in $1,100-$1,140 range. "There are still too many uncertainties in Europe that could lead to a risk reversal that could quickly end this rally within the range," says Tse. (elisabeth.behrmann@dowjones.com)

0510 GMT [Dow Jones] AUD/USD continues to flirt around 0.9200; Jim Vrondas, a managing director with OzForex, reckons cross may have just gotten what it needs to push above that level after World Bank upgraded its growth outlook for China, Australia's largest trading partner. "That news will certainly give (AUD/USD) another leg up and could be enough to have the cross consolidate above 0.9200," says Vrondas. AUD/USD recently at 0.919. (geoffrey.rogow@dowjones.com)
