Since 2017, watching Governments come and go in the UK, along with uncountable senior politicians jobs, has been substantially more interesting than watching share prices amongst the retail banks. Thankfully, there are signs this is changing as the banking sector appears to be waking up. Fortunately, comedy relief amongst politicians remains as vibrant as ever with Scotlands Nicola Sturgeon doubtless counting her lucky stars, political events at the Downing St trough, London, eased the spotlight off her, for now.
The Big Three retail banks hopefully prove more capable of keeping their hands cleaner than politicians as all continue to look poised for some reasonable price recovery. With Natwest, the next hurdle appears to be a demand the share price CLOSE a session above 328p, above the high which started the immediate downtrend and taking the share price into a zone where upward movement shall prove difficult to resist.
Of course, the path isn’t going to be all wine and roses, especially as Natwest still has to enact a panic reversal. For some reason, many shares feel the need to reverse once they’ve broken through a major downtrend such as Natwest exhibit and as a result, we’ll not be surprised if the share price doesn’t reverse to around 280p anytime soon. The reason is liable to be simple, a bunch of folk exerting selling pressure as they reclaim funds which have been tied up since 2017. It’s only fair to anticipate such a panic movement happening as the share price approached the previous highs from 5 years ago in January 2018. In this instance, as long as any reversal doesn’t close below 280p, our confidence in the bank share price shall remain uncommonly high.
For Natwest, our current calculations suggest movement next above 310p should make an attempt at 316p next with our longer term secondary, if this initial target is exceeded, working out at 339p. This, hopefully, should provide sufficient strength to allow closure above 328p, painting a picture of a new higher high, and allowing us to cough politely and start mentioning a distant 471p as possible for those traders with greater reserves of patience than most politicians have jobs.

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.
