Natwest (LSE:NWG) #Brent #GOLD In the three weeks since we previously reviewed Natwest, the company brought, quite pleasantly, a series of pretty exact movements to our target level of 434p. In fact, when the share price closed at 435p on the first surge to our target level, it ticked an important first box for longer term growth. Of course, this was only a “first box” by our own bespoke inhouse criteria, a series of arguments fuelling a balance of probabilities.
Currently bumbling around our target level, we shall not be aghast if the share suffers an artificial relaxation, and an excuse to visit the 350 level shall make a lot of visual sense. Already, and argument is developing for reversal to an initial 390 with secondary, if broken, at 373p. Moves below 405 look to be capable of triggering such reversal.
However, on the positive side of the fence, above 437p could now easily trigger gains toward an initial 451p with our secondary, if beaten, at 486p and some hesitation. Overall, we shall regard the share price as dwelling in a zone where a longer term 695p has becomes possible.
Could we be witnessing the birth of a resurgence of the retail banks?

Please remember, all prices are mid-price (halfway between the Buy and Sell). When we refer to a price CLOSING above a specific level, we are viewing the point where we can regard a trend as changing. Otherwise, we are simply speculating on near term trading targets. Our website is www.trendsandtargets.com.
UPDATE. We often give an initial and a secondary price. If the initial is exceeded, we still expect it to fall back but the next time the initial is bettered, the price should continue to the secondary. The converse it true with price drops.
