Deveron UAS Ltd. (DVR:CSE) is an interesting company, because it provides professional drone services to assist farmers in maximizing production. Deveron’s stock has not been so interesting over the past year or so, however, because it has basically moved sideways, and some of you may recall that we bought it last April and after missing the opportunity to sell on a rally soon after we got stuck with it.
Now though it looks like the company's prospects could be about to improve, perhaps dramatically, because there is clearly huge potential in what it does, and it is understood to be teaming up with the giant agri-company Monsanto, and another positive is that it has just successfully completed a financing.
So while there is certainly scope for the downtrend now in force to take the stock price back down to the nearby support shown on its 1-year chart in the C$0.20–C$0.23 zone, especially in adverse market conditions, there is considered to be a fair chance, given the positive factors just mentioned, that it will turn up here or very soon, from support at the lower boundary of the uptrend channel, and if so a sizable rally will be in prospect.
The 2-year chart is presented below so that you can see all of the
action from where it came out of a long trading halt or period of
suspension in mid-2016. There are 3 interesting points to observe on
this chart. One is that it shows that the overall trend has been neutral
since it started trading again, the next is that the C$0.21 area is
clearly an important support level, as the price has reversed at this
level four times now. Finally we can see quite strong volume kicking in on
the rally in November and again in January, which is bullish, and makes
it more likely that the uptrend shown will remain in force, which means
it should turn up here.
Lastly, we will look at a 6-year chart, which shows all of the action since it started trading back in 2012. It is more evident on this chart that there is a considerable degree of compression in Deveron stock here as it is being forced into a narrowing range between the horizontal band of support at about C$0.21 and the falling trendline descending on it from above. Superficially this Descending Triangle looks bearish, but any bearish interpretation of this pattern is belied by the quite strong volume driving the November and January rallies, which imply that it will break out upside from the Triangle, and if it does, it is likely to make a big move.
Conclusion: the charts for Deveron look bullish, especially given its positive fundamentals. Holders should therefore stay long and it is rated a buy here and especially on any dip towards the support in the C$0.21 area. Deveron has 29.2 million shares in issue (fully diluted).
