Tullow Oil Plc (LSE:TLW), digging out of a hole?

#Gold #S&P500  It was once said, the Church of England could be best described as the UK Conservative Party at Prayer. Given the historical association of senior Conservatives** with Tullow Plc, perhaps the company could be referred to as why UK Conservatives Wish Wikipedia Didn’t Exist! A share price going from £16 to an eventual 7p remains a truly impressive feat.

Thankfully, there are signs Tullow is on the edge of some slight share price recovery with hints a reboot is in the offing, though probably not as good as the rebirth of the Futurama satirical cartoon on telly.

Presently trading around 33p, the share price wandering above 35p should next trigger some recovery to an initial 45p with our longer term secondary, if exceeded, calculating at 56p. Visually, it would be reasonable to anticipate some hesitation at the 56p level, given its price history over the last few years. We shall be inclined to regard closure above 56p as key from a Big Picture perspective due to sufficient strength existing which implies 85p is a viable target for the distant future.

 

All things considered, it appears 2013 produced a perfect storm of shambolic news for Tullow, the company digging itself a hole and forgetting the cardinal rule, knowing when to stop digging. While the Wikipedia page produces a set piece of how not to handle PR problems, it certainly appears since 2013 the company has attempted a degree of stability, presumably while everyone works out just what the heck happened. As the chart shows, their share price has lacked anything approaching excitement for the last few years. With the company actually being a full service member of the industry, maybe it shall prove the case the current firm oil price will reflect on Tullows prospects.

 

For everything to now go horribly wrong, below 25p risks a visit down to an initial 22p with secondary, if broken, at 16p and hopefully a bounce.

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.
