Gold and silver stocks are at it again. Well, for gold stocks, they were never too far away from the Uptrends Scan List. Silver stocks on the other hand, have ebbed and flowed, as has the silver price. But as per my latest technical analysis β silver's recent break to fresh 12-year highs looks credible, and gold could be setting up for a major continuation move (check that same edition of Evening Wrap's ChartWatch for my latest gold TA, also).
As per the title of today's article, keep scrolling to find the ASX gold and silver stocks and ETFs I feel are showing the strongest uptrends (e.g., ASL, AZY, BC8, BGD, CMM, CRS, EVN, GDX, GOLD etc. etc.!), and therefore the strongest indications of demand-side control.
What does a "strong uptrend" represent? Strong uptrends can only occur when those with cash are highly motivated to own the stock in question, just as much as those who already own it want to continue to do so β it's a sign of consensus among market participants.
Consensus is the holy grail for a trend follower π
It took me a long time to change my mindset to accept that consensus is a good place to be. Many years ago, I would look at a strongly up-trending chart, i.e., one that started at the bottom bottom left and was about to burst through the top right of my computer monitor as "expensive" β too high to buy π !
"As soon as I buy, it's sure to plummet", I assured myself!
But one day, like a bolt of lightening, I realised that those very charts represent consensus β that both the demand and supply sides only wanted one thing β to be invested. I understood what I had to do: Go with the consensus and stop ignoring it β or worse (as I was also prone to doing) β fighting it π₯.
Today's Uptrends Scan List is chock-full of stocks where there is a strong consensus among market participants: They are stocks that both the demand -and supply-sides want to own. The Downtrends Scan List is similarly chock-full of stocks where there is a strong consensus among market participants: They are stocks that both the demand -and supply-sides don't want to own.
My goal here is to help narrow your search for the best stocks the ASX has to offer using technical analysis. You can, of course, use any other means of analysis to come to your conclusion, or that makes you comfortable. Regardless of how you use ChartWatch ASX Scans, I trust the content I share here is helping you find the best opportunities for your portfolio π.
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 β 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 β they'll keep appearing. But note, there won't be any notifications when they don't β 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 Carlβs 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 β 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 β so always do your own research!!!
