ONON IBD List Additional Thoughts

Appreciate you listing your thoughts, that’s what makes this board interesting for me, is a discussion of perspectives. Thought I would try to add some other perspective to one of your picks, ONON. Goal here is to hopefully gain more from others. I’m choosing to make a new thread so as to not clog your original thread with tangents. This is NOT an endorsement nor recommendation. It’s a discussion, but with full disclosure, I am likely taking a position. Although, limited and potentially short-lived.

So, looking at it further and outside of IBD:

So, as you can see, it was in a short declining channel but has clearly broken out and above. Good sign. I threw a variety of indicators on the chart for discussion (not what I usually do). PPO is rising with good upward movement without divergence. The RSI is interesting in that it is attempting to break above 60ish, which has been a sign for it in the past. It has had solid uptrending when above an RSI of 60 previously. It is also in a squeeze.

The candles are interesting. Most recently, it had a very long-legged “Doji” (wouldn’t really call it a doji with these wicks) but note that it actually closed above the open, after an initial rise but serious Bear pressure, yet recovered significantly with a close above the open. The real negative is the low volume.

From a general view, the relative strength is overall good. There is stable accumulation. And while the industrial group is not strong nor strong relative to the S&P, ONON is strong in it’s group as well as strong in the S&P.

Earnings are not as strong nor impressive as I would like. Not sure what IBD says about this. Is it in the IBD 50??

For fun, throw

For kicks, am adding a weekly Heikin-Ashi graph, relative to the 7 and 21 ema’s.

I’ll see how it behaves tomorrow, but I find it very interesting longer term.

Any additions, thoughts, disagreement appreciated.

Lakedog on a fundamental look at the stock since it report in Krons the fluctuation between USD and Krons has been a problem. On their conference call they will bring this up which has always made me hesitant to hold it long term. For a buy and hold investor it could be good long term but the competition is fierce. I just recently bought into Birk. But the ones I posted the Bio stocks look more interesting to me because they seem to be coming on right now.

Lakedog, thanks for the discussion. I am not a big follower of a lot of that stuff (candle types, PPO, etc).

On 8/13/24, it reported earnings and was down early on that. I think after the conference call, investors gain confidence and it had a great upside reversal on high volume (is that the doji you mentioned). You can see by my green line that I bought it that day, but near the high, it later faded. But 8/13 also happened to be a FTD for the market. The next day it was down, but for last 3 days closed at a steady price. I am waiting for an official breakout to buy the rest of a full position. Perhaps Friday Powell will throw some dovish hints and everything will pop. It is 6.8% above the 50dma, so IBD folks would worry that is a little extended. Note that today, the 21dma rose above the 50dma. RS is 91 on the IBD chart and is above the RS trendlines I have on there (21/50)

The low of 8/5 provides a good shakeout day and marked the bottom. Getting rid of those weak holders is usually good for a chart.

Not sure why MarketSurge is not labelling this as a double bottom.
