[Warrant Perspective] China Southern Airlines (01055) Breaks Out! Technical Indicator Analysis, How Should Warrants Respond?

Hello everyone, today's market, especially the aviation stocks, seems pretty lively. China Southern Airlines (01055) showed strong momentum this morning, surging at one point. By the noon break, it was trading at HKD 6.44, up over 6%, with trading volume increasing to HKD 237 million, showing clear signs of capital inflow. However, the stock is now facing a critical juncture: the first resistance level is at HKD 6.84, while support lies at HKD 5.95. Will it truly break through this year’s high, or will it be another 'false breakout' followed by a pullback? What do you think of the quality of today’s sharp rise? Did you take advantage of the move?

Looking back at the technical analysis, the picture can be described as 'fire and ice.' On the positive side, the stock price has successfully held above all key moving averages (MA10: HKD 5.94, MA30: HKD 5.85, MA60: HKD 5.60), indicating a solid trend foundation. The RSI is around 64, not extremely overbought. Moreover, indicators like ADX, Rate of Change, Bull/Bear Power, Ichimoku Cloud, and MACD are all sending 'buy' signals, which seem quite convincing. However, oddly enough, the overall technical indicator summary signal is actually 'sell,' with a strength of up to 9 points. Additionally, the Stochastic Oscillator shows overbought conditions, and the Momentum Oscillator even indicates a 'top divergence' sell warning. With so many conflicting indicators, which side would you trust more? Do you think this is a manipulation tactic by major players, or is the uptrend truly running out of steam?

When it comes to specific levels, they must be kept in mind. On the support side, the nearest level is HKD 5.95; if it breaks below that, the next level to watch is HKD 5.84. For resistance, the initial target is HKD 6.84, with a potential upside to HKD 7.10. A 52% probability of an upward movement suggests a slightly favorable outlook for future direction. Could today’s sharp rise have already pre-empted the upward potential? If the stock fails to break through HKD 6.84, would you choose to take profits now, or hold for the long term?

In terms of product review, the two call warrants mentioned at the end of last month (January 29), including Huatai Call Warrant 22575 $HUCSAIR@EC2612A.C (22575.HK)$ and J.P. Morgan Call Warrant 23449 $JPCSAIR@EC2611A.C (23449.HK)$, recording increases of approximately 6% and 5% over the following two days respectively. The performance aligned with the underlying stock while demonstrating a leveraged amplification effect. Let’s take a look at what derivative warrants options are available for deployment.

If you want to use derivatives to capture potential upside momentum, you can examine the following two products. One is Huatai Call Warrant 22575, offering leverage of about 2.9 times with a strike price of 6.666 yuan. Its main selling point lies in having the lowest premium and implied volatility among similar products, meaning the warrant price is relatively "in-the-money" and less affected by market sentiment fluctuations, potentially reducing time decay pressure. This makes it suitable for investors optimistic about the medium-term outlook of the underlying stock who aim to control risks associated with the warrant's pricing.

The other is J.P. Morgan Call Warrant 23449, also offering leverage of about 2.9 times with a strike price of 6.676 yuan. Its advantage lies in providing relatively balanced leverage and ideal implied volatility, representing a more reasonable expectation of future volatility for the underlying stock.
