ApeCoin and Akita Inu: New Lows and Support Levels

  • The price of ApeCoin retreated on Thursday, October 24, to a new weekly low at the 1,110 level
  • The Akita Inu price managed to stabilize above the 0.00000011500 level

ApeCoin chart analysis

The price of ApeCoin retreated on Thursday, October 24, to a new weekly low at the 1,110 level. We meet the EMA 200 moving average in that zone and get support. After that, the price started a minor recovery to the 1,200 level. There, we lost the bullish momentum again, and now I see that bearish consolidation. ApeCoin is currently at 1,150 and will likely drop to a retest of the EMA 200 moving average.

Potential lower targets are the 1,100 and 1,000 levels. A bullish option requires the price to stop this pullback. After that, we turn to the bullish side. By crossing above the 1,200 level, we will start a bullish momentum. The first possible resistance is at 1,250 and the EMA 50 moving average. This time, we need a break above to continue the bullish option. Potential higher targets are 1,300 and 1,400 levels.

 

Akita Inu chart analysis

The Akita Inu price managed to stabilize above the 0.00000011500 level. The EMA 200 moving average provides additional support in that zone. Price with shorter bullish impulses hints that it could initiate a recovery to the bullish side. We need a step to 0.00000013000 to test the previous high. We hope for a break above as confirmation of the bullish momentum.

Potential higher targets are 0.00000013500 and 0.00000014000 levels. For a bearish option, the Akita Inu would have to first pull back below the EMA 200 moving average. After that, we expect to test the weekly low at the 0.00000011423 level. The break below confirms the continuation of the bearish side. Potential lower targets are 0.00000011000 and 0.00000010500 levels.

SafeMoon and Litecoin: Support Levels and Targets

  • The price of SafeMoon found new support at the 0.00002857 level
  • The price of Litecoin once again fell below the $70.00 level on Wednesday, October 23

SafeMoon chart analysis

The price of SafeMoon found new support at the 0.00002857 level. With that, we successfully tested the weekly open level and now see a slight bullish consolidation. The price finds the support of the EMA 50 moving average and recovers to the 0.00002925 level. We could have resistance there before continuing to the 200 EMA and the 0.00003000 level. Potential higher targets are 0.00003050 and 0.00003100 levels.

For a bearish option, SafeMoon would have to drop again to this morning’s support at 0.00002855. This will put new pressure on the weekly open level in order to try to stay on the bullish side. With the impulse below, we go to a new daily low and confirm the bearish momentum. Potential lower targets are the 0.00002800 and 0.00002700 levels.

 

Litecoin chart analysis

The price of Litecoin once again fell below the $70.00 level on Wednesday, October 23. We formed a new weekly low at $67.76. After that, the price started a bullish recovery from there to the $70.60 level. We didn’t have the strength to continue and started a new pullback to the $69.30 level. Currently, the price is finding support to stop the previous bearish momentum. If the support holds the price, we can expect Litecoin to return above the daily open level of $70.00.

Potential higher targets are $71.00 and $72.00 levels. At $71.00, we will get new support on the EMA 200 moving average. For a bearish option, we need a negative consolidation and a drop below the $69.00 level. With that step, Litecoin goes to a new daily low and confirms that it is under bearish pressure. Potential lower targets are $68.00 and $67.00 levels.

Solana and Cardano: Cardano drops to new weekly low

  • The price of Solana rose to $175.00 on Thursday, October 24, a new weekly high
  • On Wednesday, October 23, we saw the Cardano price pull back from the resistance zone around the weekly open level

Solana chart analysis

The price of Solana rose to $175.00 on Thursday, October 24, a new weekly high. On Wednesday, October 23, we saw a break above the $170.00 resistance zone, after which a retest at that level was made this morning, followed by the initiation of a bullish consolidation. Solane stopped at the $175.00 level and is again turning to the bearish side. At $170.65, we will test the daily open level first before visiting the $170.00 support level.

If the bearish momentum continues, the price will have to look for new support. Potential lower targets are $168.00 and $166.00 levels. For the bullish option, it is necessary, first of all, to maintain above the daily open level. After Solana stabilizes, we expect to see the initiation of a bullish consolidation. It is realistic to expect to visit the previous high and try to climb to a new one. Potential higher targets are $176.00 and $178.00 levels.

 

Cardano chart analysis

On Wednesday, October 23, we saw the Cardano price pull back from the resistance zone around the weekly open level. The strong resistance in the zone around 0.365 and the inability to move above and continue on the bullish side led to the initiation of a bearish consolidation. Cardano quickly fell below the EMA 200 moving average, after which it continued its retreat to the 0.342 level.

From that level, we started a recovery this morning to 0.355, where we encountered new resistance. The new bearish momentum caused Cardano to fall to a new weekly low at 0.339. We are currently at the 0.342 level and are holding in the support zone. Potential lower targets are 0.335 and 0.330 levels. If the new support level manages to keep the price above, we can expect the initiation of bullish consolidation. With the return above 0.350, we move above the daily open level to the positive side. This strengthens the bullish momentum, and potential higher targets are 0.360 and 0.365.

Ripple and Tron: Targets and support levels for Thursday

  • The price of Ripple on Wednesday retreated to 0.5120, a new weekly low
  • The Tron price continued on Thursday, October 24, with a bullish consolidation to the 0.163265 level

Ripple chart analysis

The price of Ripple on Wednesday retreated to 0.5120, a new weekly low. After a short consolidation in that zone, a recovery to the 0.5300 level was initiated. We now encounter the opposite and retreat to the daily open level. Ripple could find new support here and turn bullish again. Potential higher targets are 0.5350 and 0.5400 levels.

The price in the 0.5400 zone will meet the EMA 200 moving average before continuing further to the bullish side. For a bearish option, we need a negative consolidation and a drop below the daily open level. With that step, Ripple descends to a new daily low and confirms the return to the bearish side. Potential lower targets are 0.5200 and 0.5150 levels.

 

Tron chart analysis

The Tron price continued on Thursday, October 24, with a bullish consolidation to the 0.163265 level. A weekly high was formed there. Strong bullish momentum is still active, and we expect further progress on the bullish side. Potential higher targets are 0.164000 and 0.165000 levels. At 0.163978, we will test the October high.

For a bearish option, Tron needs to drop below the 0.162000 level first. With that step, we will form a new low that would indicate a further pullback of the price. At 0.161000, we will test the zone of this morning’s break to the bullish side. If we don’t have new support there either, Tron could make a deeper pullback below the 0.160000 level. Potential lower targets are 0.159000 and 0.158000 levels.

In this video from StockCharts TV, Julius addresses US sector rotation and takes it to the next level when he dives into the breakdown of the Consumer Discretionary sector, looking at the industries inside that sector. While analyzing the sector from a top-down perspective, he shows you how you can get there using the tools on the StockCharts website.

Eventually, he arrives at one industry that stands out and highlights two stocks in that group with good potential in coming weeks.

#StayAlert, -Julius

The overall trend in the stock market’s broader indexes remains bullish. While the indexes were trading lower on Tuesday morning, they rebounded and ended the day relatively flat. The S&P 500 ($SPX) and Dow ($INDU) closed slightly lower, and the Nasdaq Composite ($COMPQ) closed a little higher.

Consumer Staples Sector Leads

Philip Morris International (PM) reported better-than-expected earnings, which increased the stock by 10.46% on Tuesday, making it the top performer in the S&P 500 (see MarketCarpet below). Walmart (WMT) was another stock that helped the Consumer Staples sector secure the top spot in Tuesday’s S&P 500 sector performance. WMT is the heaviest-weighted stock in the Consumer Staples sector, and it closed up by 1.51%, notching an all-time high.

FIGURE 1. MARKETCARPET FOR OCTOBER 22. Consumer Staples was the best-performing sector, mainly due to strong earnings from Phillip Morris.Image source: StockCharts.com. For educational purposes.

It’s worth viewing a daily chart of the Consumer Staples sector using the Consumer Staples Select Sector SPDR ETF (XLP) as a proxy.

FIGURE 2. DAILY CHART OF CONSUMER STAPLES SELECT SECTOR SPDR FUND (XLP). Although it was Tuesday’s leading sector, overall, it’s been trending lower. The S&P Consumer Staples Bullish Percent Index and its relative performance against the S&P 500 confirm the lack of momentum in this sector.Chart source: StockCharts.com. For educational purposes.

After hitting a high in mid-September, XLP has been trending downward within a channel. The S&P Consumer Staples Bullish Percent Index ($BPSTAP) is also trending lower, approaching the 50 level. A move below 50 would be bearish for the sector. XLP’s relative performance with respect to the S&P 500 is at -5.34%.

Overall, even though XLP was the highest sector performer on Tuesday, indicators point to a slightly weakening sector.

Tech Leads In One-Month Performance

If you look at a one-month performance of the 11 S&P 500 sectors, XLP sits in the bottom three. Technology is the leading sector in one-month performance. The Technology Select Sector SPDR ETF (XLK) is in a consolidation similar to the Nasdaq Composite ($COMPQ).

The Nasdaq has been moving sideways for the last week, but saw some action on Tuesday afternoon. If you look at the chart below, you can see the Nasdaq managed to maintain the support of the triangle and broke out above resistance. It looks like the Nasdaq wants to spring to the upside; it’s only 0.4% from its high. Maybe it’s pre-earnings anxiety. Most of the mega-cap tech stocks will be reporting quarterly earnings next week, so it could be getting a head start.

FIGURE 3. DAILY CHART OF NASDAQ COMPOSITE. The Nasdaq is in a narrow consolidation at the apex of a triangle. Which way will it break out? Look for the breadth indicators to confirm the direction.Chart source: StockCharts.com. For educational purposes.

The three breadth indicators—the Nasdaq Composite Bullish Percent Index ($BPCOMPQ), the percentage of Nasdaq stocks trading above their 200-day moving average ($NAA200R), and the Nasdaq Advance-Decline line (!ADLINENAS) in the lower panels—aren’t confirming the uptrend, although that could change if the Nasdaq gains momentum and roars higher.

Top of the News: Yields, Gold, US Dollar

Overall, it was a relatively quiet trading day in equities. With Tech earnings, key economic data, the presidential election, and a Fed meeting in the next two weeks, you’d expect a lot of uncertainty. Yet the CBOE Volatility Index ($VIX) is relatively low at 18.20.

The uncertainty was felt in other areas of the market. The benchmark 10-year US Treasury yield ($TNX) closed at 4.21%, gold prices ($GOLD) closed at a record high again, and the US Dollar Index ($USD) continues to strengthen.

The Bottom Line

Until the “uncertainties” become “certainties,” it may not make sense to add positions. Instead, focus on managing your open positions. Engage with the stock market by monitoring the StockCharts Sector Summary and MarketCarpets to see which sectors investors gravitate towards so you know how to allocate your portfolio.

Adisyn Ltd (ASX: AI1) (“Adisyn” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce the proposed acquisition of 100% of the issued share capital of 2D Generation Ltd (“2DG”) (“Proposed Acquisition”) and associated capital raise (“Capital Raise”).

AI1 entered into a Collaboration Agreement with 2DG, a semiconductor IP business, as announced on 15 July 2024. The companies have since continued to work together and identified significant opportunities to leverage 2D Generation’s semiconductor solutions and industry relationships to enhance AI1’s offering in its target markets, as well as leverage each other’s business partners to improve market penetration.

Adisyn is delighted to advise that the companies have reached indicative terms for AI1 to acquire 100% of the issued share capital of 2D Generation Ltd which they will now look to finalise into a legally binding agreement. The Company and 2DG are working towards finalising and executing a binding share purchase agreement (SPA), which is expected to be executed within 3 weeks of todays announcement. The key indicative terms of the Proposed Acquisition are included in Annexure A of this announcement (Indicative Terms). Should the companies execute a binding Share Purchase Agreement, settlement of the Proposed Acquisition will still remain subject to satisfaction of various Conditions Precedent outlined in Annexure A.

The Proposed Acquisition is a critical move forward for AI1’s ever-expanding services businesses for data centres, managed IT, cybersecurity, and generative AI. The Proposed Acquisition will allow AI1 and 2DG to focus on developing capital-light semiconductor IP solutions for the data centre, cybersecurity, and managed IT business segments rather than competing in the high-capital expenditure (capex) infrastructure space. Based on the Indicative Terms of the Proposed Acquisition, Adisyn will be able to control the process in the development of 2D Generation’s unique Intellectual Property (IP) and maintain full ownership of the developed IP.

2DG is a partner in the European Union’s Joint Undertaking, ConnectingChips, which has been specifically formed and funded to fast-track the next generation of semiconductor chips to cope with generative AI’s ever-expanding processing requirements, need for speed, and lower power consumption. 2D Generation’s solution has the potential to substantially improve the efficiency of data centres and generative AI solutions, as well a range of other real-world technological applications. It is generally accepted that the current generation of AI chips will reach their useful limits by 2030 or sooner.

This announcement should be read in conjunction with the Indicative Terms. The Company is optimistic about concluding the SPA and the Proposed Acquisition. However, the Indicative Terms remain subject to negotiation by the parties and the execution of the SPA for the Proposed Acquisition. Completion under the SPA will be subject to a number of conditions, including due diligence, as set out in Annexure A. No binding agreement has been reached at this time and there is no certainty that the Proposed Acquisition will eventuate. The Indicative Terms (and this announcement) is preliminary, incomplete and non-binding and does not constitute a commitment to proceed with the Proposed Acquisition.
