Singtel’s Uptrend is Strengthening — Here’s What Traders Should Watch Now

Singtel is testing a key resistance zone—discover the signals, levels, and strategies traders need to watch now

Executive Summary

After months of range-bound movement, Singtel is showing clear signs of life, with momentum returning and bulls stepping back in. A fresh bullish signal from my 1GT (Pro) Indicator appeared in late January, just as the stock rebounded off the 100-day moving average—marking a key turning point. Now, prices are pressing against the $3.45–3.50 resistance zone, a level it has struggled to break for weeks.

A decisive move above this could open the path toward $3.80–4.00, bringing renewed excitement to one of Singapore’s most familiar names. Whether you're a conservative trader eyeing dips or an aggressive one watching for breakouts, this setup is one to keep on your radar. Will this be the breakout that reignites Singtel’s long-term rally? Let’s find out.

TradingView Chart – 1 Apr 2025

Singtel Ltd., one of Asia’s leading telecommunications groups, provides a comprehensive portfolio of services ranging from mobile and fixed-line communication to data, internet, and digital solutions.

With a strong regional footprint and digital transformation initiatives, Singtel remains a key player in driving tech innovation and connectivity across Asia-Pacific.

From a technical standpoint using my One Good Trend strategy, the longer-term trend looks positive.

The 100-day moving average (red line) remains above the 200-day moving average (blue line), and both are gradually sloping upwards, suggesting that the long-term uptrend is still intact.

In the short term, the 20-day moving average (green line) is pointing up as well, showing increasing momentum and signaling a healthy short-term uptrend.

Looking at the signals from my 1GT (Pro) Indicator, a fresh bullish signal recently appeared in early late January 2025, just as prices rebounded off the 100-day moving average.

This was an early clue that buyers were stepping back in.

Since then, prices have continued to push higher, and this bullish signal is still playing out.

Right now, Singtel is attempting to break above a key resistance at $3.45 – 3.50, which it has struggled with multiple times over the past 2 months.

A successful breakout above this level with firm price action could pave the way towards the next upside target at $3.80 – 4.00.

This would appeal to more aggressive traders who are looking for breakout entries.

For those taking a more conservative approach, any retracement back near $3.45 – 3.50 – which now acts as support – may offer a better risk-reward entry opportunity, with a stop-loss placed slightly below this level to manage downside risk.

The alignment of the bullish moving averages and the most recent 1GT signal reinforces the idea that this uptrend may still have room to run.

Overall, the setup for Singtel appears constructive, with momentum returning and trend strength confirmed across multiple timeframes.

Traders should keep a close eye on the $3.45 level and manage risk appropriately as this breakout continues to unfold.

So, how does one take a position in Singtel whereby you are able to reap more potential return to ride the uptrend further?

A search for a SingTel warrant on the Warrant Search page of warrants.com.sg (https://warrants.com.sg/tools/warrantsearch/singtel) to trade the above levels, shows that there is only one SingTel warrant EDHW that is quoted on tight spreads.

Source: Warrant Search table for SingTel underlying, as of 5PM on 1 April 2025

Warrant EDHW which costs SGD 0.030 while SingTel shares are trading at $3.56 has an effective gearing or leverage of 5.4 times, meaning that it would move 5.4% for every 1% move in SingTel shares.

In this screen capture taken on 1 April, this call warrant rose 20.8%, 5.4 times more than SingTel’s 3.8% gain on the same day.

Investors should note that leverage works both ways, meaning that if the price of Singtel shares were to decrease by 3.8%, the price of the same call warrant will decrease by 20.8% or 5.4 times the decrease in the Singtel shares.

To see how the warrant moves during the day and its live warrant price alongside SingTel’s share price, one can simply click into the warrant code and be taken to the Live Matrix (https://warrants.com.sg/tools/livematrix/EDHW)

To place a warrant buy order only when SingTel trades at $3.50 on the same day, use the Live Matrix to look at where the warrant is quoted at $3.50 – in this case, at SGD 0.027.

How long is your holding period if you bought the warrant at SGD 0.027?

Another tool to use is the Warrant Calculator page, found in the tab next to the Live Matrix:

Enter the target entry price of $3.50 on the stock, and you will see that the warrant bid price would be SGD 0.026.

To estimate the warrant price returns based on an exit target level of say $3.80, enter that level into the underlying price target under “Target exit variables”, and move the date to say the end of the month to observe the warrant price change.

In this case, a +8.6% increase in Singtel shares from your entry level at $3.50 to $3.80, will generate an estimated return of 46.2% in SingTel call warrant EDHW from SGD 0.026 to SGD 0.038 by the target exit date and assuming all factors remaining unchanged.

To estimate your maximum holding period, keep increasing the exit date.

Moving the date from 30 April 2025 to 4 September 2025 for example, will result in a drop of the warrant price return to only 11.5%, which barely offers any geared returns compared to SingTel’s share price return of +8.6%.

In this case, investors would therefore having a trading horizon of no more than 5 months (from 2nd April to 4 September approximately) with a stock target price of $3.80.
