Boeing Co - Daily Candle Chart

Boeing Co - Daily Candle Chart

The Boeing Co. looks like a sell opportunity for next week, with a closing price on Friday at 33.40. As you can see from the daily candle chart, the last five days have seen rising prices but falling volume, which suggest that the market makers are moving prices higher but are not buying into the move themselves, so we can expect a move lower in due course. The week ended with a small doji candle representing indecision in the market and a possible turning point. With the two factors above I would suggest the Boeing provides a sell bet opportunity for next week in the US markets. I would suggest a stop loss above the $37.20 region.

Short Spread Bet – Cadbury (CBRY)

Spread Bet Cadbury plc Daily Candle Chart

I believe that Cadbury on the London Stock Exchange offers us some potential for a short trade this week following the close at 551p on Friday. Whilst volume has increased daily during the week, Friday’s candle has closed with a shooting star, suggesting that the increasing volume has met significant resistance in the market. In this case the market makers are desperately trying to move prices higher only for selling pressure to move prices back lower. With the higher volume failing to move prices higher, when combined with a shooting star candle, is often the first sign of a reversal in the trend, suggesting we should see prices fall in the early part of the week. I would suggest a stop loss above the 595 region and my only slight concern with this spread bet is the support below at 538, so this may be a quick in and out trade.
