Technical Analysis: EL8 prices have rallied significantly in the past three weeks. However, prices are now taking resistance of the upward sloping trend line that further indicates profit booking might occur at key resistance levels. RSI (14-period) is hovering around its overbought region at ~66.32 on a weekly chart that indicates some downward correction might occur in the coming period. Immediate support levels are AUD 0.610 and AUD 0.565 while immediate resistance levels are AUD 0.700 and AUD 0.785.

After considering its given ~400% return in the past year and ~44% in past one month to shareholders, its losses in half-yearly results and current trading price levels, it is prudent to book profit and consider “Sell” recommendation at the current price of AUD 0.670, 11:00 AM (GMT+10), Sydney, as of 11th March 2022.
