#FTSE #Stoxx We were intending to be enthusiastic about Easyjet but the horror story of their “Eurovision” theme flight to Basel, carrying a bunch of what were described as Eurovision Superfans, to view the contest. The resultant PR photographs featured a bunch of strangely dressed men, all smiling with a hint of vacant insanity, making any viewer question just how they made it through passport control, leaving a trail of glitter behind them. Perhaps Easyjet could perform a public service for the UK, opting to leave them in Switzerland regardless of the contest results. And we hope the group Remember Monday don’t foul up as they’re not bad!
Easyjet, due to release some financial results on the 22nd of this month, currently feature a share price which features the start of an insane grin to match their Eurovision passengers. There has been a downtrend since this time in 2021 which the share price has now broken through, presumably the market showing signs of happy days ahead. As the close up from the chart below exhibits, the share price has moved into potentially happy territory and we suspect the share may be facing a flurry of positive movements, anticipating some optimistic numbers being released.
The immediate situation gives some hope as movement above 544p should trigger a lift to an initial 564 with our secondary, if bettered, a more encouraging 608p as this would represent a “higher high”, an encouraging place for a share price to find itself prior to some Financials being released. In such a scenario, we shall be forced to regard a longer term 656p as presenting the ruling attraction.
Should the share price intend head toward the usual British “Null Points” destination, the share price needs descend below 495p to give the first inclination of things going terribly wrong. But it must always be remembered the UK Jury awarded Abba “Null Points” back in the day, so the UK stock market may opt to play a little game with the share price prior to any upward breakout continuing…

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. Hopefully, this will mean you no longer need to flip back through previous reports. HYPERLINKS DISABLED IN THIS VERSION
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.
