#Brent #Dax The most recent three weeks has seen Lloyds provide more entertainment than the Belgian Spa Grand Prix. The powers of Formula1 decided the motor race could not be run, due to rain, with the result the start was delayed and some work taken to sweep water off the track. Thus, viewers lost the entertainment of a “wet” race, the only saving grace when things eventually started being Louis Hamilton delivering a masterclass in how to overtake. But don’t get us wrong, Lloyds share price movements have been as boring as heck!
However, Friday ticked an early box promising movement as the situation remains of movement above 80p still targeting an initial 81.5p. It’s now the case where things shall become interesting with share price closure above 81.5p as while we can calculate 84p as possible, though far from impressive. The Big Picture presents the scenario of movement to 93p in the fullness of time with an eventual 104p working out as possible sometime in the future, all being needed is the crucial closure above 81.5p. It looks fairly obvious with our 81.5 and 84p targets, there’s certainly a chance of the share price pottering around for a while in such a zone. But overall, we already suspect a visit to 104p has already commenced.
Of course, there’s always the scenario of examining what may occur, if things go wrong for Lloyds.
Visually, we’d regard movement below 59p as risking triggering reversals, such a movement calculating with the potential of reversal to 45 with our secondary, if broken, at 42p. From glancing at the chart, there is certainly a strong suggestion of a bounce, should such a level make an appearance.
Risking being gullible, with Lloyds (as with Natwest and Barclays), we’re pretty optimistic for the future. And of course, next weekends race should be genuinely entertaining, a race I always miss-hear as the HungerGames Grand Prix.

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.
