TARGET TECHNICAL ANALYSIS PREMARKET COMMENT 2 FEB 2026- US STOCK MARKET

WHAT WILL THE ALLSHARE INDEX DO TODAY?
This is earning season, telling what the market will do is fairly difficult as news on earnings is likely to take over major headlines.

Let us be calm and not trade the news. Better to follow the market trend.

What moves the market is the direction where money is flowing to.

GLOBAL STOCKS IS SERIOUS BUSINESS
Market can sometimes be scary, especially when we are close yo a reversal zone? We may not know if the reversal will happen or not.

Do today we are taking profits or staying on the sideline. Let is see who will be the next Fed Chairman!!!

TARGET TECHNICAL ANALYSIS: CLOSE OF MARKET COMMENT

US MARKET NOT A BAD ONE TODAY/ LOCAL PLATFORMS NEED A LONG WAY TO GO
Despite the on going FOMC meeting. NASDAQ is up.

With my experience in this Global market, recently I have seen that following the news can be one of our greatest undoing. We would be better if we follow trends, especially if we back it up with sector rotation.

Our local platforms seems not well positioned for Global stock trading. Everything about them is just wrong
In Vest, O can sell a stock, use the proceed grom that selling yo buy another stock all completed with one minute or 2. I tried same on Trove and it became like rocket science. I sold a stock, for the proceed to drop and use it to buy another stock. I had to wait for 5 minutes or more. No wonder for like 3 trading days I have never opened "Trove" platform. Whereas on Vest every trading day is action time. I look forward to each day with enthusiasm.

Conclusion is that " our local platforms needs a lot of improvement or they should leave the 'Global stock trading" for the foreign firms!!! I just saw that " Trove" has bought a Nigerian Stockbroker, good for them, but attracting quality Customers will be the issue. Any Stockbroker that will take my local stock trading transactions away from UCAP and Morgan Capital need to do a lot of hard work!!!

MONDAY 19 JAN 2026 IS A TRADING HOLIDAY

Vest Investment is a very understanding Platform. You can always ask them anything that is unclear. The platform is always looking fir ways to make our trading experience with the firm an interesting one.

The fact that I can trade without need to worry about paying any commission is great. Just imagine paying $0.75 on every trade. On Vest, the only hurdle is the need to open the initial account with the equipment of NGN150k, after that the you can start buying stocks with as little as NGN1.00 Which you can never do on a platform like Trove. If you buy a $1 stock At Trove you will pay $0.75 as commission

Entrepreneurrr:
I was just charged $2 by vest, saying it is monthly charges.

I did not understand, please how does this works?

---------------------------------
You are expected to keep your account active and trade up to $40 each month to avoid paying any interest.

Looking at the brighter side, the maximum current charge is $3, so you must have scored some point which reduced your charge to $2. This charge is still highly reasonable compared to minimum of $0.75 or 1.5% from Trove. I would have comment on chaka too, there charge is 1.5% too but will come down down to 1% if you trade up to $50 on a month. But Chaka technically speaking at the moment is a bad trading platform, you cannot use the platform to monitor your account performance.

So[b], in conclusion VEST is a good deal[/b], You trade up $40 per month and you achieve the zero commission status. Unfortunately for someone like me. I only received notice telling me how many points I have made for the month to achieve Zero commission, so I have not followed up on them charging any commission since I always exceed the minimum point to escape any commission charge.

TARGET TECHNICAL ANALYSIS- FORECASTS FOR ALLSHARE INDEX TODAY

What is the chart telling us.

LIVE UPDATE STOCK MARKET 14 JAN 2026
Market can be unpredictable. I am looking at the current price level for NASDAQ/OIL, both are trading contrary to our expectations.

I tried to consider why our initial analysis went wrong, we are wrong due to news (if we regard news as a temporary phenomenon). But, news is temporary, it is possible situation returns to normal by tommorrow. This is one of the reason why trend trading will always win in the long term.

Yesterday, I bought an oil stock (temporarily as long as US/Iran continue to issue threats, Oil is not likely to fall in price) and with Trump expecting lower oil price to prevent inflation/lower interest rate oil price should still go back to lower prices, our charts will take is through the journey. Our recent messages should contain names like: XXXX, CVX, XXXX etc. I believe this may be a trade I have to manage tigthly and I am ready to sell once Iran issue is over (Iran should be a small problem for US to handle, I just went and check which Country did Sadam Hussain belong to, IRAQ, Sadam once overan IRAN in the past. So I do not see IRAN giving US too much problem, if history is to be followed!!!

Also, following charts and to avoid buying at high, we need to use that our 2 RSI (or any trading system you have), it should be telling us to buy although gradually (XXXX, XXXX, XXXX etc)

Wishing all a good day .

What is the likely direction/ movement for the all share index today?

JesuisAkonese:
Please, help with the process of moving from Chaka trading platform to Vest.

---------------------------
This is a tough question.The best time to move your account is when your trading platform initiates, just like is currently happening at "Trove"

The step commence with you writing to the new firm you want to move to. They will ask you for your account statement to see your portfolio, Vest will promise to refund your transfer charges (in this case. Chaka will charge you, but Vest will probably refund the transfer charge that Chaka will Impose on you) after you have moved your account. For me you may be better of selling the stocks or some of your current stocks in Chaka, and then send the cash to Vest to open a new account for you.

The transfer procedure is likely to look like this (swe below):

_____________
Hello Akonese,

Thank you for your interest in the outgoing ACAT transfer.

We kindly request you to reach out to the receiving contra firm and request their transfer
instructions. The receiving contra firm will need to initiate an ACAT
transfer from their end. A request will be sent to our back office for
review and approval.

Please be advised, we only allow whole shares to transfer. No
fractional shares. We recommend the client liquidate their fractional
shares prior to transfer and the cash proceeds will be transferred out with the
ACAT.

There is a $100 ACAT fee for Full/Partial ACAT transfer charged to the
client's account prior to transfer.

Here are our SSI instructions for the receiving firm:

DTC 3021
Clearing Firm: Alpaca Securities LLC
MPID:APCA

Client's name: Name on account
Client's Alpaca account number: xxxxxxxxx
Contact: ACAT/Transfer of Assets Dept.
Business address: 3 East Third Ave, Suite 214 San Mateo, CA 94401


If these requirements are not met, the transfer can result in a possible
DK/Rejection and the contra firm will need to resubmit the request.

Let us know if you have any further questions!

Thank you,
ACAT Team
Alpaca Markets

So, looking at the above, the charge will be around $100 to be charged by Chaka, then Vest will refind the $100 back to you once your account is with them (but note that total value of shares you are transferring must be up to about $ 4 00- $500 I cannot remember the figure again.

So, contact VEST and they will give you the latest details (in case they have introduced some new changes to the procedure).

Wishing you the best.

FOR THE PAST 5 DAYS, NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENS IN THE MARKET- MY PORTFOLIO CLOSES ON THE GREEN SIDE
If you follow up my post. I have tried many times to see how my portfolio can become more diversified, it seems I am nearly there!!!

Although the recent gains are sometimes small (I am taking of gain on the whole portfolio not just one stock), I am happy.

The only thing I missed are those crazy gains on Biotech stocks, for now I have somehow avoided biotech stocks, I want to take my time to try and "rejig" my trading system before I venture back into the Biotech stocks. And I can say, avoiding Biotechs has veen a good decision fir now!!!

Wishing all a good night sleep.
