#Gold #Nasdaq We reviewed this back in March, opting to use our usual “kiss of death” final paragraph to give an optimistic outlook. It worked out rather precisely, JP Sports share price closing at 104.55p on October 6th, just last month! Their share price has certainly experienced some hesitation in the weeks since and now, we’re being supplied ample ammunition for a doze of collywobbles. In this article, we shall again use our final paragraph to provide an optimistic scenario as the weight of negatives currently couldn’t be alleviated with a weight loss injection.
Currently, we’re not terribly convinced about JD Sports share price future. Retailers, generally speaking, are failing to flourish and while this lot seem to be swimming against the trend. It is said JD Sports benefit from clothing designed for sports becoming everyday wear. The horrid term, “athleisure wear” is used to describe this trend, though we suspect the reality is of people realising they’d spent an absurd sum on sportswear, deciding to get their moneys worth out of it! It’s funny, for dog walking, I wear an old tatty waxed cotton jacket, the real deal which comes to life a couple of times a year when it gets rewaxed. Visiting a friend down in Salford, I apologised for my scruffy jacket when we went out for dinner and she was aghast, telling me if I wanted to sell it, she’s pay top dollar.
It’s fairly clear there’s something about clothing this writer simply doesn’t understand. I’ve some old socks and older ties, now curious if there’s a market out there.
Currently, below just 83p has the potential of triggering reversal to an initial 77p with our secondary, if broken, at a bottom (hopefully) of 68p. Things become seriously dangerous at such a level, the price now lurking in a zone where an ultimate bottom of 48p becomes possible, a price level below which we cannot calculate.
Our converse scenario demands the share price stumble above 93p as, from our perspective, this would mince all our drop targets and instead, nudge open the door marked ‘optimism’. A movement such as this would create an initial target at 115p with our secondary, if beaten, at 118p. Obviously, the proximity of these numbers indicates a price level where some flatlining shall probably occur but it’s worth mentioning that closure above 118p shall imply a Big Picture 142p is exerting an influence on the price.
Here’s hoping but unfortunately, for now it looks like some reversal is probable.

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.
