QSE Index Commentary
Overview: The QSE Index dropped last Thursday confirming our expectations of the bearish attitude among traders. We expect the bearishness to continue as technical indicators show that the Index is trading below its SMAs. The MACD and the RSI are pointing south and expected to continue to do so unless a fundamental change takes place to reverse the course of the Index. Expected Resistance Level: 12,000 The 11,750 and the 11,850 levels are considered to be soft levels of resistance. Indeed, breaching above the mentioned levels may drive the Index higher. Expected Support Level: 11,750

Commentary
Overview: CBQK’s 50SMA crossed below the 200SMA on the daily chart, creating what is known as the Death Cross. This is a confirmation of the bearishness of the coming move and the momentum of this trend may continue down for an extended time. At best, the name will go through a volatile move extending no more than the QR69.00 price level. The MACD and the RSI are both pointing down on the daily chart, concluding the same. Expected Price Retreat: QR64.40 – QR61.00 Only a break below QR65.00 will trigger the sell recommendation on the bank.

Commentary
Overview: The name is trading below a downtrend resistance line and there are more bearish indications to suggest further possible drop in price. On the daily chart, the MACD is below zero and failed to break above it. At this point, it is losing momentum (shown by the MACD’s Histogram). The RSI is in the neutral area. On the Intraday chart, both the MACD and the RSI are pointing down. Expected Price Retreat: QR91.50 Only a sustained break below QR95.00 may take the price to the projected retreat target.

Definitions:
Candlestick: A chart that displays the high, low, opening and closing prices for a security in a single period. The body of the candle is made up by the opening
and the closing prices, i.e., the taller the body the greater the range between these two prices and vice versa. A colored candle denotes a closing price that is
lower than the opening price, while a white candle shows the opposite. The candlestick's shadows or wicks show the period's high and low prices and how they
compare to the opening and closing price. In general, the shape of the candle will vary upon the positions of the period's high, low, opening and closing prices.
Support: A level that could cause more buyers to step in in order to prevent the security from falling or causing the security price to head higher.
Resistance: An inverse of a support level. A resistance area or level could cause more sellers to step in in order to prevent the security from rising or causing the
security price to head lower.
SMA (Simple Moving Average): Is an arithmetic average, which calculates the average price of a security over a defined number of periods and is thus
considered a lagging indicator. SMAs used in our analysis refer to closing prices. In general, SMAs serve many purposes, such as a smoothing tool, an indicative
price direction and potential support/resistance levels.
Market Breadth: Breadth indicates the number of securities that have closed higher vs. the number of decliners in a particular exchange.
MACD (Moving Average Convergence/Divergence): Is a trading indicator, which shows changes in the strength, direction, momentum and duration of a trend in
a stock's price through a collection of three time series calculated from historical closing price data.
RSI (Relative Strength Index): Is a momentum indicator that compares a security’s price gains to its losses for a predetermined number of periods (we generally
use 14 periods). The RSI attempts to point out how a security, in relative terms, is in the overbought/oversold zone. Securities with a RSI above 70 could be
considered as overbought, and below 30 could be considered as oversold.
Pattern/Formation: Is a graphical presentation of a security’s price activity over a certain period of time. Formations come in different shapes (such as, head &
shoulders, triangles, flags, and so on). They can be used to identify potential trends, reversal of trends, price targets, entry and exit points, etc.
Fibonacci Retracements: Are horizontal lines that indicate expected areas of support/resistance for a security based on a predetermined price movement. These
levels are usually indicated by Fibonacci ratios of 23.6%, 38.2%, 50.0%, 61.8% and 100% from that particular movement.
Fibonacci Pivot and Intra-day Support/Resistance: A Pivot Point is generally used to formulate expected future support/resistance levels. From the base Pivot
Point, Fibonacci multiples of the high-low differential are added to form resistance levels and subtracted to form support levels.
