You may recall me banging on about Algernon Pharmaceuticals Inc. (AGN:CSE; AGNPF:OTCQB; AGN0:XFRA) for weeks. There was a reason for that as it went on to double from we bought it in July, and there is a reason for banging on about Awakn Life Sciences Corp. (AWKN:NEO; AWKNF:OTCQB) now, that reason being that its technical setup is exceptionally positive and keeps getting better.
Awakn is therefore considered to be an even stronger Buy than when we last looked at it, and this is one that it is considered to be worth going overweight on, and U.S. subscribers may be heartened to know that it has acceptable liquidity on the US OTC market.
On its latest 6-month chart, we can see that is in the process of completing the second low of a Double Bottom and also that the volume pattern is strongly positive with persistent heavy buying since mid-August that has driven volume indicators strongly higher — Accum — Distrib is shown on this chart and On-balance Volume on the 15-month chart further down the page.
This is a sign of determined accumulation by buyers who “know something,” and we don’t have to know what they know, simply follow their footprints.
The flattening out of the 50-day moving average and the appearance of a bullish “dragonfly Doji” candlestick on the chart on Thursday suggest that the time is ripe for it to break higher, so there may be some positive news out shortly.
The 15-month chart shows the entire history of the stock, and on it, we can see that not only is Awakn completing the second low of a Double Bottom, but it is on the point of breaking out of the severe downtrend in force from January.
On this chart, which is arithmetic, the On-balance Volume line has been added at the top, and as we can see, it is strong and already making new highs despite the continuing very low stock price.
This is a very positive divergence indeed, which implies that we will see an upside breakout soon.
Awakn is therefore considered to be an even stronger Buy than when we last looked at it, and this is one that it is considered to be worth going overweight on, and U.S. subscribers may be heartened to know that it has acceptable liquidity on the US OTC market.
Awakn is thought to be a good destination for any funds liberated from our profit take in BioLargo in the late trade on Friday, where we made a quick 40% gain in less than two weeks.
Even if it turns out that we sold BioLargo Inc. (BLGO:OTCQB) too soon, it doesn’t matter as we got out with a good quick profit at a time when risk was rapidly increasing.
