BINASAT Communications Bhd (code: 0195) is bouncing back strongly from historical lows as a surge of momentum allowed investors to capitalise from the oversold stock.


 
On Sept 3, the stock hit an all-time low of 20 sen following a sharp correction. The stock entered a brief consolidation period following the retreat but soon resumed a rally on strong buying interest.

At Friday’s close, the counter had rallied for three consecutive sessions to push past the 14- and 21-day simple moving averages (SMA). Based on the daily price chart, the dominant trend remains negative and the outlook remains bearish as the share price continues to move below the longer-term moving averages. However, there are signs the current recovery is not yet over as the stock has yet to hit overbought levels.



The slow-stochastic momentum index has risen swiftly to 77 points, but it remains healthy below the overbought line.The 14-day relative strength index also remains growing in the neutral area at 62 points.

Meanwhile, the daily moving average convergence/divergence line has curved sharply higher to challenge the signal line. The U-turn signals the end of the correction phase and the resumption of positive momentum, which would be confirmed by a positive crossing of the signal line.Trading volume in the counter remains strong, matching the levels in early September when there was a sell-off in the counter.

This indicates that investor attention remains on Binasat during this turnaround in the short-term trend.Over the near horizon, the stock’s immediate hurdle comes in the form of Friday’s closing price of 27 sen, which was briefly passed in intra-day trading.

A crossing of the resistance would see a potential challenge to the 50-day SMA and a rise towards the next resistance of 30.5 sen.Failure to convincingly breach 27 sen would see yet another short-term reversal with support at 22 sen. The historical low of 20 sen serves as next support.
