#Gold #SP500 A day when you learn something new is never wasted and the discovery that Futura Plc’s (specialists in Transdermal Drug Delivery technology) reason for existence is actually glaringly obvious. The word Transdermal threw a bit of a curved ball but, it means absorbing drugs via the skin. It could be a cream, it could be a slow release patch, but this is all that’s meant by the term. Doubtless the mechanism involved is fairly complex and personally, their innovation cannot come fast enough.
As someone with a personal axe to grind regarding medicines, a combination of daily chemotherapy pills, daily Diabetes T2 pills, blood pressure pills, and an astonishing number of pills given to deal with the side effects of the core pills, leads to an utter distaste for medical regimes. Once a month, after collecting 28 days worth of drugs, there’s a depressing job of settling down and spending the next hour or so, filling four pill dispensers with morning and evening drugs. It’s depressing, ‘cos each and every pill reminds of the illness it treats as, trust me, you don’t squeeze a pill out of its packaging and thank it for keeping leukaemia at bay.
After reading about Futura’s activities, a future where slapping on a slow release ‘patch’ seems quite attractive though perhaps, in my case, I’d require rather a lot of the things. One thing which proves infuriating is the packaging standard for medicines. There isn’t one! Instead, each company tries hard to outdo the others by making pills difficult to remove from film wrapping. Asking the pharmacist if it was possible to just order a jar of each pill type received a blank stare. My dog, on the other hand, needed antibiotics last week and we were given a jar with a course of 18 pills, each of which needed concealed in peanut butter to fool her into taking them.
Personal grudges aside, Futura (who probably love the current reboot of Futurama on telly) are currently proving fairly interesting as their share price need only exceed 62p to hopefully trigger the price into a cycle with some gains. Initially, we can calculate an initial 73p as possible with our secondary, if beaten, working out at 91p and some possible hesitation. As the chart below shows, their share price has actually proven fairly stable over the years, lacking the warning visuals implying over-enthusiastic internet chatrooms have been infecting price movements.
After so saying, future price closure above 91p is almost certain to dump the price into a region, where a future 154p calculates as very possible.
Should things intend go wrong, the price needs below 32p to cause trouble, looking capable of provoking reversal to an initial 17p with secondary, if broken, at a bottom around 9.6p.

Our commentary is in two sections. Immediately below are today’s updated comments. If our commentary remains valid, the share can be found in the bottom section which has a RED heading.

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.
