Hopefully your portfolio is bearing the fruits of some of the Uptrends Scan List's many recent winners. There have been some misses, too, due to earnings season (Bravura Solutions (BVS) is one...😢) – but generally in the past 2 weeks that ChartWatch ASX Scans has returned post my holiday – it has been a fruitful endeavour.
A1G, AYA, CDA, CYL, DTR, EOS, ERD, FCL, LYC, SGLLV, WIA, and WTM are just a few charts that have really taken off of late, and which are back in today's Uptrends Scan List. Apart from Codan (metal detectors, right?), Lynas Rare Earths, and Ricegrowers (um, the name pretty much says it all for those two...), I have to admit that I have very little idea what most of these stocks do. 🤔
In fact for most of them, I wouldn't have a clue. The fact that I would run them as my highest conviction uptrends over and over again for the last couple of weeks (and for many, also in the months leading up to my holiday) either frightens or excites you.
If you believe that it's important to know absolutely everything you can about a company before you invest, it's very likely the former. But if you've realised that simply following the trend is one of the greatest levelers in any pursuit where the accumulation of wealth is concerned, it's most likely the latter. 🤯
Welcome to my ChartWatch Daily ASX Scans series. Here I present scan lists based on my trend following technical analysis methodology. My goal is to alert you to the best uptrends and downtrends on the ASX.
Feel free to get your favourite AI to convert the tables below into lists you can upload to your favourite trading platform like TradingView. Then you'll be able to skip from chart to chart and quickly and easily see the best uptrends and downtrends on the ASX.
Some investors prefer to buy those stocks in strong uptrends, and avoid, sell, or short sell those stocks in strong downtrends – but how you use the lists is really up to you!
Note, many stocks in both lists have appeared there many times before. As long as they keep meeting my criteria – they'll keep appearing. But note, there won't be any notifications when they don't – so you'll have to do your own research on when a particular trend changes!

Important considerations when using the ChartWatch Daily ASX Scans:
1. The future is unknown. Anything can happen to change the trends in the lists above. A stock in a perfect uptrend or downtrend may not remain that way by the close of trading today. 2. These lists are not exhaustive, they are curated by Carl. You will find that certain stocks might not appear in a particular list on consecutive days but might reappear when Carl feels it deserves to return to the list. 3. This is not a recommendation service, merely an aid to help you better understand the workings of Carl’s technical analysis model in a practical way. Carl will not alert you to stocks that have dropped off a list because their trend has changed – it's up to you to apply the criteria to determine why a particular stock might not still be included. 4. This is general, educational information only – so always do your own research!!!
