Semirara Mining and Power Corporation (SCC) has been in the downtrend channel since the last quarter of 2017. It recovered a little by 0.85 percent at ₱9.49 per share as of closing on August 12, 2020.
Semirara registered a total turnover value worth ₱51 million with the local investors as the main drivers of today’s price action. The foreign investors capped the day with a Net Foreign Buying worth ₱7 million only. The foreign investors are not yet completely bullish on SCC since they remain net sellers year-to-date. Anyway, the size of their participation in trading Semirara is relatively small.
I don’t see an alarming concern on the daily volume of Semirara, especially since the second week of July 2020. The price struggles to ascend because most of the daily volume that’s higher than the 50 percent of Semirara’s 10-day volume average comes from the sellers.
Semirara’s immediate support is near ₱8.60, while the immediate resistance sits near ₱13.40.
While the MACD line hovers the signal line, I see a formation of a bearish convergence between the two lines.
Moreover, the bearish divergence between the -DMI and +DMI continues, while the ADX is at nearly 33 points. This is a confirmation that Semirara is still in a bearish territory.
Semirara is a high-risk stock for me already due to its historical volatility score of 72 percent. This risk level I’m referring to is about the “erraticity” of the price action. You’ll understand my language more once you’ve watched the online stock market course of Equilyst Analytics (if you’re one of our clients).
Trade-Volume Distribution Analysis
Last Price: ₱9.49
VWAP: ₱9.50
Dominant Range: ₱9.48 – ₱9.51
The last price of ₱9.49 is lower than the volume-weighted average price (VWAP) of ₱9.50. Plus, the dominant range between ₱9.48 and ₱9.51 is closer to the intraday low than the intraday high. This means two of the four elements of my Momentum Power Indicator are bearish.
That means I see no confirmed buy signal for Semirara. It’s not only its Momentum Power Indicator that’s bearish but also its 10SMACD combo.

Recommendations
The first question is, “Do you have Semirara in your portfolio?”
If your answer is yes, here’s the second question, “Is your trailing stop still intact?”
If you’re scratching your head because you don’t know what a trailing stop is, I recommend reading these related articles first.

4 Reasons Why You Must STOP Using a Buy Below Price and a Target Selling Price
Would you like to use my trailing stop calculator? I’ll let you use it for free. You’ll find it in the TOOLS tab of my online stock market library.
Now, let me continue talking to those whose trailing stop is still intact. I recommend that you hold your position for now due to the absence of a confirmed buy signal. When there’s no confirmed buy signal, it means the downtrend is more likely to continue. Do not waste your buying power. Consider topping up or averaging down if, and only if, the 10SMACD and Momentum Power Indicator of a stock are bullish, especially when its True Market Sentiment is also bullish.
