A stock trading system is simply a piece of software that helps assist in your stock trading. These systems are designed to help you accurately determine when to buy and sell, as well as what kind of profits to expect. But since it is a piece of software ultimately designed by a human, one has to wonder how accurate it can be.
A stock trading system bases its functionality on certain technical analysis tools, and since there are many types of analysis tools, the results can vary depending on which system you use. On the one hand, it is great to find an automated system that can assist with this analysis, yet on the other, accuracy will depend on which tools it uses.
And therein lies the problem with a trading system - whether or not this program will work as it claims depends on the programming. That is why a lot of care and research needs to be put in to determine which trading system will be best for your needs.
KUALA LUMPUR (Thomson Financial) - Malaysian shares closed sharply higher Friday, with the benchmark index hitting a fresh record as investors became increasingly convinced the Federal Reserve will lower interest rates next week.
The Kuala Lumpur Composite Index (KLCI) closed up 20.08 points or 1.5 percent at 1,398.35. For the week, the KLCI was up 28.18 points or 2.5 percent. Advancers beat decliners 663 to 222, with 255 stocks unchanged and 184 counters untraded. Volume traded was heavy at 1.91 billion shares valued at 2.17 billion ringgit.
KLCI Weekly ChartVADS’ core businesses are the management of computer network systems and call centers. It is an information technology (IT) company that can provide total solutions for companies seeking to outsource their internal computer and network requirements.
Standard and Poor's (S&P) quoted in his stock commentary today that "We reiterate our Buy recommendation and raise our 12-month target price to MYR7.00 (from MYR5.44 adjusted for a 1 into 2 share split)".
VADS intends to pay out 40% - 60% of net earnings as dividends giving reasonable yields forecast at 3.6%. With MYR19 mln net cash at end-Jun. 2007, we believe the conservative payout policy leaves VADS with sufficient reserves to make further strategic acquisitions or failing which, to raise the payout going forward.

Standard and Poor's (S&P) said in his stock commentary today that "We reiterate our Strong Buy recommendation and 12-month target price of MYR13.00". Risks to our recommendation and target price include Tenaga being made to absorb higher gas prices, the continued upward spiraling of non-gas fuel costs and weaker-than-expected electricity demand growth.
Tenaga Nasional Weekly Chart
Above is Tenaga Nasional weekly chart and I will put my comment on this counter. The 200 SMA is used to separate bull territory from bear territory. Since end of July 2006 Tenaga stock trading below 200 SMA which showing that it is in bear or downtrend mode. Technical indicator 14-weeks RSI set a new low while the indicator is not. This is triple bullish divergence. But I'm still thinking that the price will be at intermediate support at RM8.50 which at the same time relate to fibonacci 261.8% level. Patience is the key to success and we should waiting the confirmation signal for trading and take small risk that acceptable.
Additionally, Tenaga Nasional slid 20 sen or 2.1% to 9.25 ringgit after the company reported a lower-than-expected fourth-quarter net profit due to foreign exchange losses. Investors were also worried that higher power purchase costs and a potential increase in fuel costs may impact Tenaga's outlook next year.

Astro Daily Chart
Overlook Astro below 200MA and still in downtrend mode. On last Friday, breakout based on the downtrend line happened as picture above with average 5-days volume high then price closed at 4.16. The price may retest a few times around the trendline. Candlesticks showing bullish patterns. Technical indicator RSI >70 Astro in overbought area which seems that Astro may do correction in very short-term period.
This counter looks very interesting when my analysis showing some contradict. Dowtrend line already broken with 5-day average volume high. Trading rules for trendline entry method already fulfilled when today 8/10/2007 Astro opened at 4.16. The red horizontal (4.15) and vertical line showing how to make an entry. If price open above the horizontal line, the entry is there. While my counts based on Elliot Wave Theory and Fibonacci Expansion line, overall Astro in downtrend which still in count no 4 and waiting count no 5 for the end.
My instinct said that downtrend is still ongoing on Astro and I will not trade this counter. Sometimes you must believe your instinct which will guide you to make decisions.
Day after this I will show you how to trade using trendlines, Elliot Wave Theory and some explanation about Fibonacci. The basic material to show you is still in progress.
Anyway, happy learning and happy trading!
KLCI Daily Chart
KLCI ends +0.19% at 1372.39 in heavy volume with more than 2 billion shares changing hands as bargain hunting on blue chips, government-linked stocks by local funds helped reverse losses. Market breath turned positive at close with gainers edging out decliners 631 to 282. Follow through buying interest may push benchmark to retest all time high of 1392.18 tomorrow.
On the wall street market, the Dow and the S&P 500 surged to all-time intraday highs on Friday after a solid employment report rekindled optimism about the U.S. economy and corporate profits. The S&P 500 also closed at a record high.
Technically from the price chart above we can see that market is trying hardly to retest the previous high at 1392 points. After some moment of the bearish sentiment US market, KLCI take a breath at the fibo level and might to retest all the time high. Daily RSI showing that KLCI in overbought area RSI>70 which I expect that correction will happen this week. Overall look up still uptrend and promising.
Additionally with the Hari Raya holidays around the corner and given the lack of fresh leads on the local front, market observers say the KL Composite Index will likely fall into consolidation mode this week.
