Universal Robina Corporation Technical Analysis
Universal Robina Corporation (PSE:URC) surged by 2.77 percent, closed at ₱130 per share, and printed a total turnover value worth nearly ₱328 million on March 19, 2021.
The local investors were the main drivers of the price action today. On the other hand, the foreign investors registered a net foreign selling worth nearly ₱16 million. They are net sellers year-to-date (YTD net foreign selling worth over ₱300 million).
Based on the horizontal lines I plotted, URC’s immediate support is near ₱120.00, while its immediate resistance is near ₱132.50. If you’re a fan of Fibonacci, the immediate resistance is confluent with the 23.60 percent retracement of the Down Fibonacci near ₱129.90. You will see the higher resistance levels using either horizontal lines or Fibonacci retracements on URC’s daily chart below.
I like how URC rose above its 10-day simple moving average (SMA) and how it surged higher than its 10-day volume average today. MACD’s golden cross above the signal line seconds the motion to that bullish signal.
Meanwhile, it seems that URC needs to break above the resistance confluent with the 38.20 percent retracement of the Down Fibonacci at ₱135.75 for the +DMI to register a golden cross above the -DMI to confirm the strong upward momentum of this stock.
As expected among index or blue-chip stocks, URC has a low sensitivity or risk level based on its 10-day historical volatility score of 38 percent. It remains a newbie-friendly stock. However, not because I said that it’s a newbie-friendly stock, it doesn’t mean you should buy the stock right away. There’s got to be a confirmed buy signal before buying the stock based on my Evergreen Strategy 2.0.

Synthesis
URC has a confirmed buy signal based on my Evergreen Strategy 2.0.
Foreign brokers are the top participants of URC. Why is it so? I speculate that maybe it’s partly because it’s one of the 20 constituents of the MSCI Philippines Index (aside from it’s already given that foreign brokers are the top traders of blue-chip stocks).
If you’re a high-risk trader or investor, you may top or do a test-buy within the prevailing dominant range. However, if you are yet to do a test-buy, please calculate your initial trailing stop first. You can use my trading calculators (LIBRARY->TOOLS). If you’re satisfied with your reward-to-risk ratio, that’s the logical time for you to do a test-buy within the dominant range. If today’s dominant range doesn’t appear within the first three minutes of the next trading day, ask for URC’s latest Dominant Range Index in our Private Clients Forum (if you’re one of our clients).
If you’re a low-risk trader or investor, you may want to consider waiting for the prevailing (at least) Market Sentiment Index to turn bullish. If you’re one of our clients, you may ask for URC’s prevailing Market Sentiment Index in our Private Clients Forum.
If you already have a position on URC, and if your trailing stop is intact, it’s either you top up within the prevailing dominant range or hold your position. There’s no need to reduce the percentage of risk on your trailing stop since the three timeframes’ average Market Sentiment Index is neutral.

I don’t see this as spoon feeding of info as you tickle the minds of your readers to also backcheck the facts. And it does greatly help us. Thank you very much!
your Price-Volume distribution is very helpful
Hi Jaycee! Your Price-Volume distribution is very helpful. It is a very good guide as to what price I should buy and sell a stock. Life for example in the case of Jollibee I will base my exit price on what I see in this chart. Many thanks.

I must admit I might have doubled my gains by this time have I had the same analysis on certain stocks you featured
Thank you, Jaycee for your informative newsletter. As a trader and investor, I appreciate having insight from different sources. Yours I find honest and accurate. I must admit I might have doubled my gains by this time have I had the same analysis on certain stocks you featured. Thanks again
comprehensive tips are very useful for me
TIPS for FREE? It’s JAYCEE.
The comprehensive tips are very useful for me as a super busy working-mom who tends to invest in Philippine Stock Market, especially now that the Philippine Market, Business Trends, and Economy has unpredictable fluctuations.
PLEASE CONTINUE WHAT YOU ARE DOING AND EVERYONE ELSE WILL BE ENCOURAGED WITH THE HELP OF YOUR STOCK TIPS. MABUHAY and GOD BLESS.
it's all worth it
I am also a subscriber of the Truly Rich Club. I am comparing the Stock Signals with TRC. Every time Jaycee sends his bonus newsletters, it’s as though he read my mind before he wrote them. Jaycee is not the typical analyst who would obviously cheer you up when the market is down (like how they do it in the Truly Rich Club). I mean, he does that but he gives solid reasons (fundamental and technical) on why you should continue his recommendations. His technical analysis and reasoning are easy to understand, something that’s missing in the Truly Rich Club.
the best anyone can find online
Thanks, Jaycee.
I’ve been checking out your advice via email from time to time and I can honestly say that your company’s insights particularly on the daily market trends are at par, if not better, than the best anyone can find online. I am indeed looking forward to the day I can eventually enjoy the complete benefits of your program packages and the current offers seemed very attractive. It’s just that I’m neck deep in my current job at the moment and as much as I wanted to spend more time watching over my current portfolio, it just wouldn’t be possible in the next 6 months or so to actually trade effectively, as I could possibly can.
But I’ll keep subscribing to your newsletters and keep monitoring the price action even with the limited time available. Once I find the proper mix of free time, lesser financial strain, and a slightly bigger and relatively expendable buying power, then I bet I’ll be subscribing in a couple or all of your packages.
For now, cheers and more power!
helpful for busy professionals like me who are based in abroad
Hi Jaycee,
Thank you for providing relevant information. It’s helpful for busy professionals like me who are based in abroad but nevertheless, would like to keep up with news about the market as well as trading strategically. I am learning as I read your analysis.
helped me realize the value of averaging up and not just averaging down
My problem in investing was that I no longer buy when I see my stock going green for I do not want my earnings to go down. The Stock Signals has helped me realize the value of averaging up and not just averaging down.
