ASX 200 Index Chart Analysis
ASX 200 Index Technical Analysis
The AU200 technical analysis of the price chart on 4-hour timeframe shows AU200,H4 is at the upper bound of the recent trading range above the 200-period moving average MA(200) which is level itself. We believe the bullish momentum will continue after the price breaches above the upper Donchian boundary at 8550.09. This level can be used as an entry point for placing a pending order to buy. The stop loss can be placed below 8450.67. After placing the pending order the stop loss is to be moved every day to the next fractal low indicator, following Parabolic signals. Thus, we are changing the expected profit/loss ratio to the breakeven point. If the price meets the stop-loss level (8450.67) without reaching the order (8550.09) we recommend cancelling the order: the market sustains internal changes which were not taken into account.
Fundamental Analysis of Indices - ASX 200 Index
Australia’s business sentiment improved in January. Will the AU200 price advance?
Australia’s business sentiment improved in January: the National Australia Bank (NAB) reported the NAB Business Confidence index rose to 4 in January from -2 in December 2024. Readings above 0 indicate improving conditions, below indicate worsening conditions. The diffusion index based on a survey of about 350 businesses is used to gauge business sentiment. The index recorded its first positive reading since October and the highest level in three months, nearly returning to its long-run average. Rising Australian business confidence is bullish for Australian currency and the AU(200) index. At the same time, NAB summary points to “a weakening across most activity metrics including capex in the month” which may indicate that “growth in the economy likely remains soft.” This is a downside risk for the AU(200) index.
