Caner Yılmaz – BIST 100 Technical & Quantitative Analysis Director: Aksa Energy’s profit dip and sub‑par Q2 results juxtaposed with target upgrades create an intriguing dynamic. Technically, the stock remains above its 50‑day EMA and holds the upper Ichimoku cloud, signaling a medium‑term uptrend. Approaching the 0.618 Fibonacci level could spark buying pressure; otherwise, a short‑term correction risk persists. Investors with a low‑risk tolerance might consider a step‑wise buying strategy up to the TRY 130 resistance zone.
