- Arab individuals: ~43m EGP

Framework / methodology mentioned (technical + risk management)
- Avoid decision-making mid-session during sharp rises/falls; emotions (greed/fear) lead to poor decisions.
- Recalculate after session close:
- Check whether minor/major support was broken
- Determine whether the move is profit-taking vs. start of a new downtrend
- Time-frame / trend hierarchy:
- Very short-term (“speculator”, T+0 / T+1 / T+T) most affected during sell-off days
- Short-term: referenced via EGX10
- Medium-term: referenced as generally upward via a “30-period / tratini” framing
- Portfolio allocation rule (based on market state):
- Positive market: larger stock exposure, less liquidity
- Neutral market: 50% liquidity / 50% stocks
- Bad market: 30% stocks / 70% liquidity
- Stock-level playbook:
- Hold/avoid based on support levels
- Trader/speculator: focus on small ranges, profit-taking, and strict stop-loss/profit protection
- Medium-term investor: “sell on rises / buy back” can work in sideways conditions, but avoid averaging in downtrends
- Fibonacci retracement: explicitly referenced for EGX70 wave context to estimate the maximum acceptable correction
Key index levels & outlooks
EGX30 (main index)
Support / trend notes
- 55,000 cited as major support; its break framed as negative.
- Rebound occurred, but direction depends on whether the index closes back above support.
Short-term (EGX10 / short-term reference)
- After rising to 56,100, EGX10 declined and closed ~54,500
- As long as above 54,500: stance remains positive
- If further breakdown:
- Watch 54,000, then 53,000
- “Downside path” described toward ~53,000 and possibly ~52,000
- Resistance: ~55,600 (breakout attempts failed again)
Medium-term outlook
- “30-period / tratini” indicator: still in general upward trend (roughly ~3 months to <1 year horizon)
- Medium-term advice: start monitoring stocks and consider building/establishing new buying positions; avoid exiting solely because of the expected downturn starting now (framed as possibly ending soon)
EGX70 / “EGX7”
- Described as suffering a sharper decline than EGX30
- Close: 20,960
- Profit-protection level earlier: “21” (as profit-protection levels)
- Correction severity: “weak correction” became moderate-to-severe
- Fibonacci framing: maximum acceptable correction estimated at ~19,500–19,600
- Staying above this band = still positive
- EGX100 commentary: still within a strong overall upward trend, but the correction was more aggressive than usual
Explicit recommendations / cautions (process & risk)
- Primary caution: do not make mid-session decisions during sharp market moves; emotions drive bad decisions.
- Trader vs investor distinction:
- Speculator is most affected (very short-term)
- Investors should generally wait for confirmation and use support-based rules
- Stop-loss discipline:
- Multiple stocks include explicit stop-loss / profit protection guidance
- For some healthcare trades, a specific numeric stop-loss was mentioned (e.g., 4.30); EGX-level stop-loss wasn’t used, but support bands were repeatedly emphasized
