Micro-caps stocks candidatesToday I am going to introduce a special search called "Ballistic New Highs" if you have GUTS to play micro-cap.
This search finds all stocks hitting a new 52 week price high in ASX. The stocks are sorted by Closing Price divided by Stop Price. The stocks that are at the top of the list have a closing price well above the Stop Price.
To consider a bottom entry, I'd consider the stocks prices below $0.10.
On 7-Nov-2017, the stocks listed as below:
KFE> RT= 1.40 Materials (Dvrsfd Metals/Mng)
WBT> RT= 1.40 InfoTech (Semiconductors&Equip)
POS> RT= 1.41 Materials (Dvrsfd Metals/Mng)
RLC> RT= 1.38 Materials (Dvrsfd Metals/Mng)
CLL> RT= 1.41 Materials (Dvrsfd Metals/Mng)
As there are 4 out of 5 stocks are categorized at Materials, therefore I use ASX 200-Materials index for a market trend comparison.
We have a Market Timing Confirmed Up signal on 9-Oct. Most of the stocks here skyrocketed to new highs.

A Virtual Long Call Option on Gold with TGDTGD came up in my Deep Value screeners as one of the highest ranked companies in the screener, so I took a look to see what they were about. Timmins Gold Corp is obviously a gold mining company, so right away I knew their success or demise was closely tied to whatever the price of gold did. Before going into the fundamentals, let's take a look at the charts.
Since late January of this year, TGD has been consolidating nicely around the 0.35 - 0.42 price levels. I liked the length of the consolidation, and the overall chart seemed pretty well set up for a high run breakout if the price action dictated. Liking the chart, I headed over to check out the fundamentals of this company to see if there could be any substance to the breakout, or if the breakout would even be justified.
TGD is trading at 3.77 times earnings, 0.94 times book value, and is trading 3.59 times its free cash flow. Not bad ratios, and it clearly makes this a deep value play within the gold sector. Taking a look at some of the return percentages for the company I was pleased to find that TGD had an Operating Margin of 30%, ROA of 20%, ROC of 25%, and a 21% ROI. Pretty impressive. Next, I took a look at their cash positions, because I love investing in companies with a ton of cash (RGR is a perfect example of this idea of tons of cash, no debt, and it paying off). TGD's Current Ratio is 3.01, more than enough cash to cover its debts.
Taking everything into consideration, this is virtually a long call option on the price of gold without the theta (time decay). I am looking for it to break that consolidation pattern, perhaps the 0.46 price level, at which I would go long, and place my stop right below the consolidation pattern at 0.30. Once again, I want to stress that although the company appears to be solid fundamentally, they are very correlated to whatever the price of Gold does. If gold goes south, TGD will most likely follow. However, if you're long term bullish on the price of gold like I am, this could be a way to expose yourself to gold without having to invest purely in gold or gold futures.
As always, critiquing and disagreements on my theses are encouraged.
All the best,
RC
NSPR Could Be Deep Value Comeback StoryI wrote an extensive piece on NSPR in which I go into depth on the company and the potential turnaround story, you can find it here: rockvuecapital.wordpress.com
Trading at a 77% discount to book value, an 81% discount to sales, an 81% discount to NCAV, and a 43% discount to net cash, NSPR is roadkill in the market. However, no matter how great the value may seem, it does nothing for us if the price action doesn't coincide with our thesis. For this reason we must take into consideration the chart. As you can see from the chart, there is tremendous amounts of consolidation at the 0.76 to .60 price channel. In an effort to focus more on the price action, I am looking for a breakout from that 0.76 price level. If that breakout happens, it could signal the bullish thesis I laid out. A more convincing price action would be a breakout above the 50 MA. I am content to wait on this one and wait for the price action to confirm my entry.

TSXV Micro-Cap Trend TradePure Energy Minerals has been on an uptrend over the past few months. As you can see on the chart, price has been following a trend line that the stock has recently met again. The price has been respecting the 20MA - 50MA during the uptrend and price is currently positioned right under the 20MA, for me this looks to be an area of value to buy for the next move up. It has just had a very bullish day and the StochRSI has shown it moving up from an oversold level, also the Squeeze Momentum Indicator is showing that the squeeze is currently on and the MACD is about to cross to a bullish signal. Next resistance is around $0.93 and my price target is $1.06
Trade valid until price closes below trend line.
