Cupid – Weak Shares

Cupid shares (LSE:CUP) are weak shares as the fact in this piece reveals. The bear is very happy right now because the market environment is favorable to him. When the cross-eyed bear squints, paradoxically, you know it is in a great ecstasy.

On the chart, the ADX period 14 is almost above the level 50, while its DM- is far above its DM+. Meanwhile, the MACD (default parameters) has both its signal lines and its histogram below the zero line – the signal lines are far below the zero line. There is a very strong Bearish Confirmation Pattern on the chart; go short on this market. Any short-term rallies in this market would only proffer unique opportunities to go short at better prices.

Since the year 2012, Cupid has been in a downtrend and it would be sensible for the trader to follow suit. You see when trading, there would be periods of roll-downs and breakeven performances, and that one does not mean that following the line of the least resistance is ineffectual.

“Trend Following is not dead. At best, trend following is sleeping and no one rings a bell when markets take off. While past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results some trend followers outperformed the world’s greatest investor and if one was a contrarian thinker now is an interesting time to consider trend following as a strategy.” – Andrew Abraham (TRADERS’ February, 2013; www.tradersonline-mag.com)
