Tullow Oil Plc (LSE:TLW) and a Bitcoin thought!

#Bitcoin #Gold It was a good weekend. Formula One managed to bring a few exciting laps but more importantly, Dr Who appears to be acknowledging the dreadful choices of unwatchable characters in the lead role, bringing Billie Piper back as the main character. It’d certainly be funny, if she returns as The Doctor and is assigned Chris Ecclestone as her sidekick. As we’d hoped, the Grand Prix drivers were learning how to race again, aside from one who employed a Mario Karts move against a superior car. It proved to be one of these occasions, where penalty points and race punishment was correctly applied.

Elsewhere in the world, things have been stirring!

 

In the dream world of crypto currency, the media have been lining up to ridicule JD Vance, the American vice president who will obviously always be wrong due to being appointed by President Trump. However, the guy seems to have a point in expressing an interest in future growth for Bitcoin, despite it recently attaining an all time high, then retreating slightly.

From our perspective, closing above 105,000 dollars was important as it “proves” the potential of some future traffic upward. Movement next above 112,000 calculates with the potential of a lift to 120,213 next with our longer term secondary, if bettered, working out at 135,800 dollars. One interesting aspect of Bitcoins price movements emanates from the price now mapping itself against each days closing prices, rather than day trade highs and lows. For us, this is quite a happy thing as it makes life easier when looking for danger points. At present, below 92,000 dollars would provide the first solid signal of reversals ahead.

We can also make the point about the circled area on the chart below, this being a point where Bitcoin managed to close below the uptrend. In summary, should the price dip below such a level at $52,000, we shall swiftly revert to suggesting folk buy a pair of running shoes and escape a terrible future.

 

Tullow Oil is finally scratching the itch which has been rotten share price movements. To be honest, we’ve been expecting a news report where a hedge fund or unheard of Oil Company shall appear and make a budget offer for the company shares. Too often, price movements here have felt like a share price being artificially managed. We’d not be surprised if an offer of 20p/share were dangled, offering some slight succour to punch-drunk investors.

Tullow share price has finally closed above the downtrend since May of last year, giving very slight hope things may have changed.

Movement next above just 15.8p calculates with the potential of a lift to an initial 16.4p. Our secondary, should such a mild target be exceeded, works out ay 20.5p and an expectation of some hesitation, given price price movements from August to December last year. Closure above 20.5p shall be regarded as a REALLY BIG DEAL, opening a wild series of calculations which point to a future 41p eventually. Perhaps the company shall drill into a world, where their machinery can reliably supply fabled  McDonalds milk shakes or Printer Ink, two products which have real market value.

SUCCESS above means both FAST & SLOW targets were met. ‘CESS means just the FAST target met and probably the next time it is exceeded, movement to the SLOW target shall commence.

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.
