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.

makes me more interested in learning the technicalities of trading
Hi sir Jaycee, I am a newbie guy in the stock market, although I entered it some 2 years ago, putting tiny bits of earned money in my Col Account. Even so, it didn’t earn anyway except that nakatsamba ako ng konti sa DD(pero luge naman sa rest of the stocks). I don’t have an idea how it happened and would like to know how market behaves and how to beat that behavior so that I can make the tsamba happen again (it would not be tsamba anymore diba). Your free help (free emails) makes me more interested in learning the technicalities of trading. Somehow it connects to the newbie state of my brain and keeps the fire burning.Thank you!
very informative
I am new to Stock Market but I found your articles very informative.
helps me understand what to check
I came across your site via Investagrams as I was also observing how people analyze stocks. I was glad I saw Stock Signals as Jaycee’s analysis helped me understand what to check out when deciding in buying and selling your chosen stocks. I was immediately convinced to avail his plan as I want to learn more given I have a busy schedule with work also. Looking forward to your daily newsletter and if given more time, I want to backread all your articles.
better than Truly Rich Club
I came across Stock Signal when looking for TRC reviews, I find yours better, but I am skeptical to subscribe, so I register for a free subscription which is so far informative and helpful, a daily dose of knowledge I just needed to keep intact with my goals as an investor. I hope I can find strong reasons to completely subscribe to Stock Signals.
been really a fan of how you present your analyses
Hi Sir Jaycee, Been really a fan of how you present your analyses. Having the activities per stock& broker (i.e. Foreign and Local) is a very nice consideration for our trades. Thank you for having them recorded for us. Though I’m a free subscriber for now, I make it sure to read your mails/blogs in the morning during breakfast and evening before going to sleep. Wondering how much more that would be if i finally subscribe and be your official follower. I’ll be assessing my costs/losses vs the gains that i incur so i could decide to subscribe soon.. Please keep it up!
