Collection House - CLH - Chart
I am keen to learn more about Technical Analysis. With my limted TA knowledge I see CLH has been in an underlying uptrend since March, which has just been reconfirmed with a breakout(?) through the latest short downtrend. Plus RSI seems to be rising.
Is someone (Phaedrus?)able to comment on other indicators to use for someone at TA learning level, and also post a chart (as I have not managed to work out how to do that bit yet!).
Thanks in advance.

Offshore, I've learnt pretty much all I know off Phaedrus, so I don't profess any high level of proficiency, however, here are two charts.
This first shows CLH's entire share history. Rather than focussing on anything too micro, I've plotted a zig-zag line which shows an all time high, followed by a low, by a lower high, a lower low, and a continuing sequence of lower lows and lower highs -- trending down over the long term. This is also illustrated by the 500 day moving average. You'll also see that there was perhaps a period of optimism mid 04 to the end of 05. It was a long time before the next lower low.
Here is a slightly shorter chart, but you'll note a previous level of support at around 1.28, which CLH broke through in March 06. A break above this line would be a better omen, and the OBV seems to be increasing as well. That's a very long term approach, and this may be a turn-around story, but I've found it easier to buy into stocks that are long term going up.

Thanks for the memories limegreen .... CLH sure was a winner post float .... didn't take long at all going from 140 to over 500 ...... it was a good ride while it lasted
I recall this was one of the favourite stocks on the other channel when it was thriving .... one of stollies favourites as well .... I think he did very well out of it.

Thanks Limegreen thats very interesting to see a longer term chart - I had been focussing on the 1 year chart so you have shown a new perspective.
I have not used the OBV indicator - any idea where I can accesss this on a free chart site? I usually use Direct broking super charts, but cannot find OBV there.
CLH closed up again today.

It's always worth looking at where a share has been (in this case it's entire history). I've often found that moving averages going down don't always fit going up the same, but it's still useful to see how your selected indicators would have performed in the past.
Phaedrus is a big fan of OBV (hence my interest). bigcharts provide OBV, as does reuters charting facility (I forget the url).

A bit of discussion on CLH on another recent thread
Profit upgrade yesterday and the shareprice went close to $1
Make a few on this forum happy

Collection house may be in the debt collecting buisness , however maybe they should be more concerned about the level of their own debt

I am thinking about buying some more CLH because I think that they might be ripe for some corporate action soon. Not a very liquid stock due to directors owning approx 40% of the company. My limited technical abilities would indicate a "buy"? I appreciate any input.
