Saudi market trading flat as investors continue to play
safe…
The Saudi market continued to trade in a narrow range as investors
largely avoided fresh positions in the event of an increasingly grim
global economic outlook. The Saudi bourse seems to be factoring in
the sluggish global growth and possibility of a sovereign debt default by
Greece. The Tadawul All Share Index in a largely flat trading on
Sunday ended at 6,112.41, dipping 4.3 points, after attempting a failed
pullback. Out of the total fifteen sectors, five sectors closed in the
positive territory with the market breadth being negative in the ratio of
67:58. The bourse’s turnover crossed SAR 5bn mark at SAR 5.32bn,
with a total of 234.0mn shares changing hands.
The Petrochemical Sector reported a minor drop, held up by Ministry of
Petroleum statement that the oil markets are currently balanced in
Saudi Arabia. Heavy-weight SABIC slipped 0.3% to SAR 91.50. Petro
Rabigh and SIIG rose more than 1.0% each. The Banking Sector
closed in flat mode, down 0.1%, with Al Rajhi and SAMBA closing
unchanged. Riyad Bank dropped 0.4%. The Cement Sector added
0.3% whilst the Retail Sector dipped 0.3%. The Retail stock, Thim’ar
(down 3.7%), was the top loser in the sector. The Agriculture & Food
Sector slumped 1.3%, with Jouff Agriculture, NADEC and Tabuk
Agriculture slumping more than 5.0% each and were the among the
top losers of the day. The large cap, SAVOLA Group and Almarai
declined 1.2% and 0.3% respectively. Among the Telecom stocks
,STC and Mobily moved up 0.3% and 0.5% respectively whilst ZAIN
KSA and Almutakamela lost 0.8% and 0.4% respectively. The Multi-
Investment Sector slumped 1.1%, with Al Baha (down 9.9%) gave up
earlier gains and topped the losers list. The Multi-Investment and
Industrial Investment leaders, Kingdom Holding and Ma’aden, closed
unchanged. The state-controlled entity Saudi Electricity gained 0.8%.
The Insurance Sector (up 2.8%) was the top gainer of the day.
The Saudi market is currently trading in hope and despair mode. Signs
of slumping global economy is adding to despair whilst hopes are
currently pinned on the expected positive earning session. Volatility is
likely to remain in the Saudi market with Tadawul seeking direction
from global market trend on Monday.

Saudi Stock Market Report
3 October 2011
Definition - Technical Indicators
Candlestick Patterns, Doji
DojiI is a form of candlestick pattern. It normally suggests major up and down movements. Trading above the Doji is positive for
the market. Trading below the Doji value indicates bearish momentum.
Hammer
A small body (white or black) near the high with a long lower shadow with little or no upper shadow. This indicates a bullish
pattern during a downtrend.
Inverse-black-hammer: a bottom reversal signal with confirmation the next trading day.
Moving Average, SMA (Simple Moving Average)
Normally we use the 10, 20, 50 and 125 day SMA to identify the trend. A cross-over of the short-term moving average with the
long-term moving average is positive for the market. The reverse is the case on the negative side.
DEMA - Double-smoothed Exponential Moving Average
We use the 10, 20 and 40 DEMA to identify a trend. A cross-over of the 10 and 20 DEMA gives a positive indication. A cross-
over of the 20 and 10 DEMA gives a negative indication. As long as a stock or index trades above the 40 DEMA, this gives a
positive indication for the stock or index. Trading below the 40 DEMA may create downside for a short time.
MACD - Moving Average Convergence and Divergence
The MACD has its own line period and another signal line; the dotted line indicates the signal line. When the MACD crosses the
signal line from below and trades above it, it gives a positive indication. The reverse is the situation for a bearish trend.
RSI - Relative Strength Index
When the RSI remains below 30, it indicates that a market or sttock is in oversold territory. When the RSI is above 70, it
indicates that the market/stock is in an overbought level.
Price ROC
When the Price ROC is above zero it gives positive signals for an index or stock. When the price ROC is below zero, it gives a
negative signal for the index or stock.
Stochastic Oscillators
When Stochastic Oscillators are below zero, the stock is in an oversold zone and some bounce back is expected. When
Stochastic Oscillators are above zero, the stock is in an overbought zone and some correction is expected.
Williams %R
When Williams %R is above zero, the stock is in an overbought zone and some correction is expected. When Williams %R is
below zero, the stock is in an oversold zone and some bounce back is expected.
CCI (Commodity Channel Index)
While the CCI was originally designed for commodities, the indicator also works very well with stocks and mutual funds.
There are two methods of interpreting the CCI:
1. Looking for divergences: A popular method of analyzing the CCI is to look for divergences in which the underlying security is
making new highs while the CCI is failing to surpass its previous highs. This classic divergence is usually followed by a
correction in the security's price.
2. As an overbought/oversold indicator
The CCI usually oscillates between +/-100. Readings outside these ranges imply an overbought/oversold condition.
Fibonacci Retracements
Fibonacci Retracements are based on a trend line that we draw between a significant trough and peak. If the trend line is
rising, the retracement lines will project downward; if the trend line is falling, the retracement lines will project upward. The
number of Fibonacci Retracement levels appearing on the chart depends on the range of the y-axis. If we want to see all nine
retracement levels, we may need to manually adjust the minimum and maximum values of the y-axis. Major Fibonacci Levels
are 23.6%, 38.2%, 50%, 61.8% and 100%.

Whipsaw
A whipsaw is a situation in which a share price heads in one direction, but then is followed quickly by a movement in the
opposite direction. The origin of the term is the push and pull action used by lumberjacks to cut wood with a type of saw of the
same name.
Gravestone Doji
In a Japanese Candle Stick chart, this is a doji candle where prices rallied but came back and closed at the level they started;
the open and close are equal.
Inside Bar
An inside bar is a bar, which is completely within the range of the preceding bar, i.e. it has a higher low and lower high than the
bar immediately before it. An inside bar indicates a time of indecision or consolidation. On a smaller time frame, it will look like a
triangle. Inside bars often occur at tops and bottoms, in continuation flags, and at key decision points like major
support/resistance levels and consolidation breakouts.
Big Bar
A big bar is a bar, which is bigger than the preceding bar, i.e. it has a lower low and higher high than the bar immediately before
it. Normally, after, forming a big bar, for a coming few sessions, the stock may move in the range of the high and low of the big
bar. Breaking out or breaking down will give a fresh bullish or bearish pattern.
Higher High
This implies that today’s intra-day high is higher than the intra-day high(s) of the previous session(s).
Lower High
This implies that today’s intra-day high is lower than the intra-day high(s) of the previous session(s).
Higher Low
This implies that today’s intra-day low is higher than the intra-day low(s) of the previous session(s).
Lower Low
This implies that today’s intra-day low is lower than the intra-day low(s) of the previous session(s).
Triangle
This is a technical analysis pattern created by drawing trend lines along a price range that gets narrower over time because of
lower tops and higher bottoms. Variations of a triangle include ascending and descending triangles. Technical analysts see a
breakout of this triangular pattern as either bullish (on a breakout above the upper line) or bearish (on a breakout below the
lower line).
Standard Error Channel
Parallel lines drawn higher and lower from the Linear Regression Trend-line form Standard Error Channels. The distance at
which they are traced is a certain number of standard errors over or above the linear regression trend-line. The characteristic of
the price fluctuations is its movement from one extreme to another and it depends on the traders' common opinion. Prices trend
up in the optimistic market whether a pessimistic one causes prices reduction. The prices are drawn to a certain equilibrium
point existing for each issue. The location of such point can be found out by using the Linear Regression analysis whether
Standard Error Channel analysis presents the data about the cyclic direction of the prices as well as the forecasts for possible
trend changes.
Long Headed Doji Pattern
This is a bullish signal, particularly when around price support levels.

Saudi Stock Market Report
3 October 2011
Double Tops / Double Bottoms
A double top is simply two peaks. After the second peak is formed a breakout through the base is a signal of a possible
reversal of the trend in prices. In the case of a double bottom, two troughs form and an expectation follow for the possibility of a
trend reversal if the market price rises through the base. Waiting for confirmation is important for trading double tops or double
bottoms.
Three White Soldiers Formation
The Three White Soldiers formation indicates a bullish candlestick pattern that is used to predict the reversal of the current
downtrend. This pattern consists of three consecutive long-bodied candlesticks that have closed higher than the previous day,
with each session's open occurring within the body of the previous candle.
Bullish Harami Cross Pattern
This is a Doji contained within a large black body. This is a bottom reversal signal.
