Monitor key near-term support of 12,200

TSX Index YTD Daily Chart

Relative to other world indexes, the TSX had a meager advance of 10.6% for this intermediate run which started in June. The index failed at resistance of 12,500 and is now in a near-term lateral trading band with support at 12,200. A breakout above 12,500 would be a reason to add to positions for a test of 12,800. A break below 12,200 would be a reason to consider shorting the TSX with a minimum retracement to the 11,900 zone. A comfortable cash position is appropriate at this point.

TSX Index 3 Year weekly Chart

The TSX Index still has an intermediate uptrend with a near-term downtrend. Monitor the resistance level of 12,500 and the support level of 12,200. A breakout above 12,500 will give the index a shot at resistance of 12,800. A break below support of 12,200 will indicate the end of this intermediate uptrend.

What is the major trend for the TSX? The answer is sideways. The index has a dismal performance profile over the past three years. Compare the TSX Index to the three year performance for the S&P500.

TSX Index near-term support and resistance levels

TSX Index must hold 12,200 or the intermediate uptrend is over

TSX Index YTD Daily Candlestick Chart

The weekly chart for the TSX Index published on September 14, 2012 shows the dismal performance over the last three years. It is not a pretty picture. And the above daily chart shows the TSX stalling at 12,500 with a paltry gain of around 11% from the 11,300 low and a YTD gain of 0%. Also, a two year performance of 0% is not too encouraging. With energy, basic materials and financials (LifeCos in particular) not performing; the TSX does not have a chance for a shot at 12,800.

Some points to review from the above chart:

  • Intermediate uptrend for TSX Index as of September 24, 2012
  • Could not break resistance of 12,500
  • Near-term downtrend
  • RSI is confirming the intermediate uptrend and above 0
  • Near-term support and resistance levels are identified
  • Must hold 12,200 to maintain the intermediate uptrend
