Hello Visitor,
Invest In MJ News (#IMJ) Update for March 15 2017
As we mentioned a few days ago, we are in a healthy correction in the Cannabis sector for stock price and valuations. In Canada, the valuations of the licensed producers have gotten way ahead of itself over the last few months; they should start to build a base during the summer before moving higher going into fall and winter of 2018.
Looks like the sector will move sideways for some time, this creates a good trading opportunity, new entry points for new positions or adding to existing positions.
One of the companies we provide coverage on is Emblem Cannabis, the chart below is some initial technical analysis we provide as part of our research. You can view updated price charts and company info on Emblem from our company directory listing for them.
We believe that the stock price has come down to a favorable entry point if you are looking to add to positions or start a new one. The MACD and RSI indicators are close to extreme lows, this is a good time to accumulate shares, when the indicators are extremely high, you want to be selling. As for a trading range, look to enter positions under $2.00 US and sell above $2.60 US, if we get a $0.60 swing trade from the stock you and make an additional 23% over the next few months.
Most of the selling we are seeing in the last few days on Emblem is mostly coming from people who bought the October financing at $1.15. Their shares are now free trading and since many of the have profited from their purchase in the financing, some are now taking profits. Once their selling is done and the excess supply of share is cleaned up by stronger hands, we believe the stock price will most likely rise as new buyers will overcome the recent sellers.
When looking at the last financing, the company offered a special warrant financing at $3.63, back in January, see press release for details. We think its a good idea to buy below the last financing offering price, so now Emblem stock is at a great entry point. If you have access to the Canadian markets, there are warrants trading on Emblem, you may want to consider buying and trading the warrants as they have a cheaper price for acquisition for the warrants versus the actual shares. The symbol for the warrants are EMC.WT on the TSX Venture, last we checked it was trading at $1.20-$1.25.
Our company directory listing provides detailed information on various publicly traded companies including price charts. You are welcome to use the charting tool and perform your own technical analysis to the price action of the company’s stock.
