Go to 🌞any supermarket, and you will find the company's beauty, grooming, health care, personal hygiene, and infant care products as you walk through the aisles.

The Daily Chart for Procter & Gamble

The daily chart for Procter & Gamble shows that the stock has been above a 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:golden cross since July 31, 2020. A golden cross occurs when the 50-day 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:simple moving average rises above the 200-day simple moving average.

Note that Nov. 9 was a negative key reversal day. The stock set its all-time intraday high at $146.92 that day and then closed below the Nov. 6 low of $142.38. The stock has been below its 200-day simple moving average since Jan. 27. As the 50-day simple moving average falls toward the 200-day simple 𒊎moving average, a death cross could be confirmed within a few weeks.

The horizontal lines at $134.01 and $137.21 are the semiannual and annual pivots, now considered risky levels. The lower of the three horizontal lines is this week's value level. A gap below this key level woul♕d be considered a breakdown.

The Weekly Chart for Procter & Gamble

The weekly chart for Procter & Gamble is negative but oversold, with the st🌌ock below its five-week modified moving average at $131.42. The stock is well above its 200-week simple moving average, or reversion to the mean, at $104.99. The stock was a buy at this moving average when it was $9ꦬ4.77 during the week of March 27, 2020.

The 12x3x3 weekly slow stochastic reading declined to 10.46 last week, well below the oversold threshold of 20.00. If this reading declines below 10.00, the stock will be considered too ꦕcheap to ignore.  

Trading strategy: Buy Proctor & Gamble stock on weakness to its 200-week simple moving average at $104.99. Reduce holdings on strength to the sﷺemiannual and annual pivots at $134.01 and $🐬137.21. A gap below the weekly pivot at $126.17 is a technical warning.  

Technical guidelines: The closes on Dec. 31, 2020, were inputs to my proprietary anal🐟ytics. Quarterly, semiannual, and annual levels were calculated based upon the last nine c𒅌loses in these time horizons. Monthly levels for February were established based upon the Jan. 31 closes. New quarterly levels occur at the end of each quarter. Semiannual levels are updated at mid-year. Annual levels remain for the full year.

My choice of using 12x3x3 weekly slow stochastic readings was based upon 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:backtesting many methods of reading share-price momentum with the objective of finding the combination tha𝐆t resulted in the fewest false signals. I did this following the stock market crash of 1987, so I have been happy with the results for more than 30 years.

The stochastic reading covers the last 12 weeks of highs, lows, and closes for the stock. There is a raw calculation of the differences between the highest high and lowest low versus the closes. These levels are modified to a fast reading 🎀and a slow reading, and I found that the slow ♈reading worked the best.

The stochastic reading scales between 00.00 and 100.00, with readings above 80.00 considered 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:overbought and readings below 20.00 considered overs𒐪old. A reading above 90.00 is considered an "inflating parabolic bubble" formation, which is typically followed by a decline of 10% to 20% over the next three to five months. A reading below 10.00 is considered "too cheap to ignore," which is typically followed by a gain of 10% to 20% over the next three to five months.
