Now Corporation (NOW) Technical Analysis
Now Corporation (NOW) closed on March 4, 2021 at ₱3.40 per share, up by 20.14 percent. Did the foreign investors significantly help in pushing the price at a higher level? No. Of the total turnover value of nearly ₱485 million, they only contributed more or less 2 percent. They registered a net foreign selling worth almost ₱7 million.
NOW’s immediate support is registered near ₱2.68, while its immediate resistance is around ₱4.00.
While the last candlestick of NOW soars above the 10-day simple moving average (SMA), I see an indecision sign between the buyers and the sellers. It’s evident by the positioning of the last candlestick’s body at the middle of the lower and upper wicks.
Meanwhile, MACD registered a golden cross above the signal line, which is a bullish signal. The +DMI also did the same above the -DMI.
Despite those bullish signals, I’d like to remind relatively new traders and investors about NOW’s sensitivity or risk level according to its 10-day historical volatility score of 125 percent. This stock has an extremely high sensitivity level. This means either erratic spikes or engulfing bodies of candlesticks were spotted within the past 10 trading days. This is not the kind of behavior that suits new traders who are still in the process of taming emotions with a process-oriented approach like my Evergreen Strategy 2.0.

NOW’s Dominant Range Index is bearish because its dominant range is closer to the intraday low than the intraday high. Besides that, the last price is lower than its volume-weighted average price (VWAP).

5 out of 84 participants, or 5.95% of all participants, registered a 100% SELLING activity
The tug-of-war I mentioned above is evident by the bearish Market Sentiment Index across two timeframes (EOD and WTD). The number of participants that registered a 100 percent buying activity isn’t on a significant level.
Recommendations
There is no confirmed buy signal for NOW Corporation as of the market closing on March 4, 2021.
Even though the Day Change surged by 20.14 percent, my Evergreen Strategy 2.0 wants me to err on the side of caution, which perfectly suits a risk-averse investor like me.
If you already have a NOW position, and if your trailing stop remains intact, I advise that you hold your position. If you’re a low-risk investor, it’s better to reduce the percentage of risk on your trailing stop to lock-in more profits or reduce more potential losses. Don’t average down. It’s not the most logical time to do that yet. Wait for NOW to have a confirmed buy signal according to my Evergreen Strategy 2.0 if you’re under my mentorship or if you’re one of our clients at Equilyst Analytics.
If you don’t have a position on NOW yet, do not do a test-buy. You may add NOW to your watchlist if you still have an available slot. Then, ask for our latest NOW analysis in our Private Clients Forum as often as you deem necessary.
You can use my trading calculators. You’ll find them in the TOOLS tab of the LIBRARY page of Equilyst Analytics’ website.

his lessons are worth it and his daily guidance is really useful for practicing the system he teaches
Let’s Be Honest, what this guy markets is true. It’s better than your usual subscription to services like Truly Rich Club(UGH). If you’re new to the market, his lessons are worth it and his daily guidance is really useful for practicing the system he teaches in combination with your own technique. I appreciate his application of making volume a serious consideration on trades.
Pero I don’t believe that what he teaches will really give you and edge. It may at best, lift your feet of the ground. You need to find people with more experience in the market and techniques that can’t be found in books. The service and the lessons are up to par with the cost anyway.
