BHP

BHP closed today at 29.92.
It’s 10 week MA is at 26.77.
It’s 50 day MA is at 25.87.
The 9 day RSI is at 63.

So… where’s a good buy point? At one of these moving averages or when the RSI crosses 30 (or 50)? Normally I’d wait for an RSI drop. I don’t want to get too greedy & miss out on a big move.

Any thoughts on how to play this one?

p.s. same question for OIH

Joe,

As I've written before -- but not in a long time -- for my personal positions I'm a big believer in multiple entries and multiple exits. So if I didn't own BHP or OIH, I would scale in. I would probably buy about 25% now. When it goes down, I'd buy another 25%. And then another 25% on another decline, etc. I would do that as long as it stays in an uptrend as measured by the weekly Parabolic SAR, the 40-week moving average, whatever.

But it always helps me to begin with some kind of position, no matter how small. And then look for opportunities to add to it.

Larry
