Let’s talk about the STAR Market 100 Index.

On September 24 last year, the STAR 100 hit a major bottom, which was more than half a year later than other major indices—they all bottomed out on February 5. Because of this “uniqueness,” I’ve always considered it the most worthwhile target for long-term attention.

Even if we really do enter a bear market cycle in 2027, I might still stick with this one variety, trading in and out repeatedly on a 5-minute timeframe, and keep following it until the A-share weekly chart peaks in 2045. Does that sound exaggerated? But I’m serious.

Now let’s look at the technicals.

From the 60-minute chart, it’s currently building a third buy point. Remember the 1280 line I drew in early October? At that time, I judged that the target for this round of mid-term correction would be around there. In the end, the drop stopped at 1292, just about ten points off. Will it make a precise retest later? Hard to say.

But for medium- to long-term players, this margin of error doesn’t really matter. The rally after the third buy point is usually the most explosive. Whether you bought at 1280 or 1340, the 5% difference in cost is insignificant compared to the gains that follow.

There’s a clear bullish divergence signal on the chart (if you don’t understand divergence, you can look up related technical articles—the core is the “triple view” method, and once you learn it, you can catch buy and sell points yourself).

The key level is 1424.
Breaking through this level will most likely confirm a reversal. So if you really get a chance near 1280, you can go heavy; and once it holds above 1424, right-side traders can consider increasing their positions.

Want to be even more aggressive? Just go digging for gold in the STAR 100 components—there are plenty of good picks in there.
