The biggest problem with value investing? 🤔
To me, it often feels like an extreme sport... kinda like wingsuit flying...
The goal is to buy “cheap” stocks – or stocks which you think are cheap (who cares what everyone else thinks, right?). Except, cheap stocks are usually priced that way for a reason – and they have a nasty habit of getting "cheaper".
Some value investors like to convince themselves that they're being "brave when others are fearful" (um, wingsuit flying again!), when really, a lot of the time they're just catching a falling knife. "Markets are irrational! I know I'm right on this one! Just look at the vaallluuueee!"
Unfortunately, markets can stay irrational longer than your portfolio can stay solvent, and sometimes “value” is just code for “business in terminal decline.” In short: buying the dip works – unless it’s the dip that keeps on dipping 📉.
Okay, down from my soapbox! And apologies to the value investors reading this who are no doubt seething by now. I do believe it takes every kind of investor to make a market – and everyone is entitled to be part of demand and supply in any way they see fit.
I'll also gladly cop your laughter and derision after I buy at the top of an exponential trend / subsequent crash... all the while having ignored your warnings that the market PE was a bazillion! 😉
As the title of this edition of ChartWatch ASX Scans suggests, there are some value investing favourites in today's Downtrends Scan List. But it's not like they just appeared there today... Nope, the likes of CSL, RHC, EDV, TWE, AD8 have been there for weeks, months, and in the case of AD8 – well over a year.
I prefer to look at these charts, and the rest of the Downtrends Scan List, as short selling opportunities – a way to hedge the long-side of my portfolio. And on the long-side, as you will see from today's Uptrends Scan List, we remain spoiled for choice.
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!!!
