MWC Technical Analysis (10.29.2021): Is Manila Water a Good Stock to Buy?

MWC Technical Analysis

In this technical analysis for Manila Water Company (MWC), I’ll show you the status of the six (6) indicators I monitor to know if the stock has a confirmed buy signal. If all six indicators are bullish, it means the stock has a confirmed buy signal according to my proprietary methodology.

I don’t follow the classical usage of technical indicators. I have my proprietary methodology in using certain technical indicators, which I call The Evergreen Strategy 2.0.

Getting a confirmed buy signal does not mean buying the stock right away. I must compute for my initial trailing stop and reward-to-risk ratio first.

The computation of my reward-to-risk ratio follows after computing for my initial trailing stop. I need to decide for the percentage of risk I’m willing to apply in that particular trade. This process must be done sequentially. To compute my reward-to-risk ratio, I need to identify the stock’s resistance.

For your convenience, I created the Trailing Stop Calculator and Reward-to-Risk Ratio Calculator, which you’ll find in the Calculators tab of the Library section of our website.
