Technical Analysis
Daily Price Chart
Note: The purple color line in the chart depicts RSI (14-period). The sky-blue and green color lines represent 50-Period SMA and 21-Period SMA respectively.
On daily chart, AGY's stock price has been on a tear for a long time and is currently trading at a 52-week high hence indicating higher level of risks associated with the stock. However, bearish divergence on the RSI causes the same price to be traded with caution because a severe correction can occur at any time at greater levels. The stock's next significant resistance level is now at AUD 0.45, followed by 0.48, and the stock's major support levels are at 0.355 and 0.335 zones. The support levels may present a promising opportunity to profit from the upward momentum. On the daily chart, the RSI (14-period) is currently trading at 74.97, indicating that the stock is approaching its overbought zone.
Stock Recommendation
The lithium market continued its resurgence, with lithium demand and prices increasing, with most lithium pricing benchmarks growing over 100% during the quarter. A driving factor for these increases have been rising global lithium demand from new electric vehicle manufacturers against supply shortages in China and an increasing cost base.
Therefore, considering the facts above and the current trading levels, we give a “Watch” recommendation on the stock at the closing market price of A$0.400 per share, up 2.564% as of 11th January 2022.
