#FTSE #Nasdaq Trend lines can prove fascinating and we notice Deutsche Telecom (DTE) are providing a perfect example of something which may be quite important. The German company share price topped out in March 2000, literally the peak of the Tech/Dotcom bubble, and similar to so many other members of this ridiculous market spike, DTE share price was soundly thrashed. It then spent the following 20 years doing very little but now, there are early warning signs something positive may be happening.

Usually we’d prefer taking this sort of thing with a pinch of salt but when DTE’s price movements this year are examined, for some reason a 24 year old line is visually playing some part in share price movements. This is liable to prove significant for the longer term, if the historical high above 100€ is still regarded as part of the trading cycle. Currently, the share price would need close below 20€ to spoil the party and effectively cancel our immediate cautious optimism.

 

The immediate situation with Deutsche Telecom looks quite interesting, though falls some distance away from being a multibagger potential. Above 23.75 Euro now calculates with the potential of near term movement to an initial 24.5€ with our secondary, if bettered, calculating at a confident looking longer term 26€.  Overall, the only number we can calculate with potential for trouble sits at 33€, a price level which if achieved has the potential to provoke some market hesitation.

If things intend go totally wrong, the share price needs below 20 to risk triggering reversal to an initial 17.7€ with our longer term secondary, if broken, at a future 13.4 and hopefully a bottom.

We suspect this shall hopefully prove worth keeping an eye on.

*** End of “Updated Today” comments on shares

#Gold #SP500  around 32 at time of writing.  It’s always interesting when we get a chance to compare chalk with cheese and in the case of Golden Prospect, something quite fascinating is happening. We’ve had a few emails about this share “waking up” and while that’s certainly the case, the disparity in price movements between Gold and GPM’s share price since 2021 is fascinating.

It always strikes us as odd, while some companies slavishly follow the price of whatever commodity they specialise in, many others wander off and do their own thing. Of course, Golden Prospect don’t actually get their hands dirty in exploration, instead providing a fund who invest in gold and precious metals companies. As a result, despite our favourite gold miners on telly expressing utter delight at Gold staying above the $2k level, it’s likely to be some time until the enhanced price of gold works its way through to the bottom line of conventional organisation. By way of explanation, we watch Gold Rush and Bering Sea Gold on Discovery, concluding there are actually only two or three miners worth paying attention to, even to the extent of viewing former opera singer ‘Emily Riedel’ and her fortnightly gold diving efforts on YouTube.

 

The immediate situation with GPM certainly suggests some caution. While the share price has definitely moved through the Blue downtrend since 2020, it hasn’t exactly covered itself in glory, visually attempting to exhibit a “more of the same” stance. For this reason, we’re a little worried, preferring to suggest waiting to see if it moved above the prior high of 37.5 before taking an interest as this calculates with the potential of movement toward a fairly useless 40p. However, in the event the 40p level is exceeded, our secondary for the longer term calculates at 52.5p, an ambition which even makes some visual sense as it matches the highs of 2022 and will probably represent a point of some hesitation in any longer term recovery cycle.

 

As always, we’ve a converse scenario, one which needs the share price to relax below just 31p to risk rearing its ugly head. Below 31p risks promoting reversal to an initial 25.5 with our secondary, if broken, at 21.5p and a possible bottom. With Gold currently at $2331 and looking  like it wants to enter a cycle to around $2160, we would not be aghast if GPM gets a bit of a hammering should the excuse be given.

#Brent #Germany  It certainly promises to be a colourful Wimbledon this year, thanks in part to Barclays sponsorship. With the banks branches being variously coloured-in with Red paint from the Palestinian protestors and Orange by the Just Stop Oil brigade, perhaps the bank needs judged to have offended Ireland, thus giving the excuse for a Green coating. Perhaps we should review the B&Q share price soon as all this paint is clearly coming from somewhere?

 

The banks share price had been looking like it was limbering up to become useful, even closing marginally above our 217p level trigger price. Unfortunately, the intrusion of a UK General Election effectively kyboshed any immediate hope, the share being consigned to a parking orbit until such time we know the party colour of those spending the next few years feeding at the Westminster trough. We still suspect the share price shall enter a recovery phase but there are obviously severe risks, if the party currently speculated to achieve a “landslide” victory take their place in Government. In Scotland, this sort of victory for the nationalist party has proven pyrrhic as the government was suddenly populated with people who would have struggled to win a seat as a local councillor. Unfortunately, once this occurred, the country experienced some truly stupid behaviour from elected representatives who were focussed on promoting their own versions of “good ideas” with abandonment of common sense.

At present, it still looks like share price closure above 217p shall prove significant, kicking off a cycle to an initial 236p with our secondary, if bettered, at 251p and almost certain hesitation. But overall, the potential of a visit to a longer term 290p makes a lot of visual sense.

 

Our converse scenario, should things opt to go wrong or protestors suddenly discover “magnolia” is cheap paint, below 197p risks triggering reversals down to an initial 189p with our secondary, if broken, calculating at 177p and a visual potential for a bounce.

#FTSE #Gold  It has been a crazy week but not with the FTSE. As usual, our gripe is about the Scottish weather and the fact our heating is on tonight. Worse, judging by the rainfall levels, it sounds like the usual August monsoon in Argyll may have arrived early. It was certainly a surprise, doing a dog walk wearing a winter wax cotton jacket, waterproof boots, and gloves. But it was also amusing, bumping into tourists who’d clearly packed for summer. Often, our summer months are May & June, then everything becomes as random as politicians utterances.

As for the FTSE, we’ve had a suspicion the UK market was going to be “parked” until the horror of an election is over, perhaps between 8200 points and 8400 points. Recent movements tend suggest this may no longer be the case and even Taylor Swift is being lined up to take the blame. The story goes, the Bank of England are not convinced inflation shall fall by the required level, thus allowing them to justify keeping the country crippled by high interest rates. The logic follows a theory price gouging of “Swifties” by hotels and stores across various cities on her sell out “Eras” tour will provoke an artificial inflationary rise, due to the trades maximising on the spending power of her fan base. Maybe they’ve even got a point as we briefly contemplated buying our grand-daughters tickets for the Edinburgh event, deciding a swift nope was justified.

 

While we remain comfortable with a belief the UK index shall be restrained in a holding pattern, it starts to feel like between 8100 and 8300 shall become the bandwidth, rather than our proposed slightly higher figures. The immediate situation is fairly interesting, suggesting weakness below 8178 points risks triggering reversal to a useless 8166 next with secondary, if broken, down at 8120 points along with a possible bounce. Should this prove to be the case, anyone attempting to catch a bounce can probably emplace a stop loss at just 8098 points, due to our 3rd level drop target working out at a blank space of 8072 points, an ambition which fails to make any visual sense..

Conversely, this “silly season” Taylor Swift story may just be another aspect of the efforts of her tremendously effective PR machine, doing everything they can to ensure their principals name remains in the news on a daily basis. Should this be the case, above just 8240 has the potential of kicking off movement to an initial 8288 points with our secondary, if bettered, working out at a less likely 8320 points, less likely because the index shall be seen to shake it off our suspected trading trap until the election. But above 8320 will hint the market intends a love story with our 3rd level of 8367 points and some hesitation.

 

Due to running out of titles of Taylor Swift tunes to weave into the report, that’s it! Have a good weekend and hopefully this Grand Prix proves as good as last weekends was.

#Gold #Nasdaq  Something quite distressing seems to be taking place with cancers. As a child, there was a “bogeyman” number tossed around by the media which suggested 1 in 10 people could experience cancer. Through the years, this was modified to 1 in 5, then 1 in 3 and now 1 in 2 folk will get to enjoy the gentle hands of the treatment industry. A chum was visiting today and once we agreed neither of us would probably vote in the coming election, talk turned to how friends were doing. Cutting a long story short, it quickly started to feel like 1 in 2 may be a gross understatement, identifying friends who have not had a cancer scare becoming quite difficult! Perhaps it’s a West of Scotland thing but once you get over 50, it starts to feel like an invisible timer starts.

Thankfully, as someone whose timer went off 12 years ago, I’ve become fairly flippant about chemotherapy and also become increasingly impressed with how “relatively easy” it is to get through, when compared with my six months of hell back in 2012. For this reason, I’m always fascinated by frontline life sciences companies such as Avacta and their constant battle to produce something new, effective, and priced properly. Avacta touch upon this with the statement on their website; “Avacta seeks to create long-term shareholder value alongside patient benefit.“

The only problem with Avacta has been their dreadful share price history…

 

There’s a visual impression the recent visit to the 39p level shall maybe be regarded as a “double bottom”, matching the lows of 2022. There are early signs this may be the case, the share price recently breaking though the downtrend since October last year. The current situation suggests movements in the near term above 51.3 should trigger price recovery to 57.6p. If bettered, our longer term secondary is more interesting, calculating at 68.2p and giving the potential of the share price regaining the Red uptrend since 2020. Generally, this is a pretty reliable signal for better times ahead, so hopefully the company have some miracles waiting to be revealed.

While the share price is no long a falling knife, there’s still the unlikely risk of below 39p bringing a visit to 30p with secondary, if broken, at 15p.

#FTSE #WallSt  There’s been quite a lot of gossip about a miracle new fuel for diesel engines, one which provides a substantial drop in emissions, increases power and efficiency, yet is compatible with modern diesel engines. Such is the change in behaviour, it’s liable to remove diesel engines from the “green” naughty step, especially as the fuel is renewable. It is called Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil (HVO), completely different from biodiesel as its produced from used oils, residues, and waste materials.

The political shambles which inflicted devices such as Particulate Filters in modern diesels shall be completely defused, due to the all round benefits of HVO. In May of this year, the rollout commenced in Germany with the product available nationwide at petrol stations. The company, Deutz AG who are behind this impetus are also fairly famous for their engines, having been in the business for an amazing 160 years, producing the first gas engine, hydrogen engines, and of course their famed diesel units.

We’ve obviously a bias in favour of diesels, recent events providing more information about Particulate Filters and the aim of planned obsolescence than we wanted to know. While our own issue has been resolved with a Toyota SUV, the fury when an initial dealer flippantly diagnosed the vehicle as an uneconomical repair still infuriates. It cost just under 300 quid to have the filter cleaned by an independent specialist.

 

Something seems to be happening with Deutz share price, needing only above 6.2€ to suggest it shall potentially trigger movements to an initial 6.8 euro with our longer term secondary, if bettered, calculating at a future 8.3€. We suspect almost certain hesitation at this point, given this is the level of a prior high.

We’d be alarmed if the share discovered an excuse to slump below 5.05€ as this risks triggering reversals to an initial 4.6 with our secondary, if broken, at a probable bottom of 4.1€.

Given the shares pace of movement over the years, this risks being a slow process, perhaps one with “Fire & Forget” potentials but certainly worth investigating.

#Gold #Bitcoin  It’s not often a guy can give his wife a present she wasn’t expecting, hadn’t even dreamed of, proves her wrong, and it completely makes her day. Some years, I buy her a bunch of age specific funny cards, all of which add up to her birthday. This years group attracted scorn as they added up to a year below the birthday she thought she was celebrating. Arithmetic clearly isn’t her strong point! These days, it also feels like something strange is happening with share and commodity prices. While Bitcoin currently is embracing an interesting level of lunacy in one direction, BP appears to be shuffling into position to try something in quite the opposite direction by recently producing an unusual set of chart movements.

To deal with Bitcoin first, while the crypto price has not yet troubled the immediate uptrend, we suspect the worst is coming, due to a series of “lower lows”. The situation now suggests weakness below 58,414 risks promoting reversals down to an initial 55,127 with our secondary, if broken, coming in at 49,603 dollars. Visually, there’s a reasonable expectation of rebound at – or slightly above – this level, due to the 50,000 level displaying some sort of floor level (circled) during February of this year. It’s amazing how many times this sort of historical hesitation proves significant with regard price movements, if only by allowing extremely tight stops in case it all goes wrong.

 

BP Plc, on the other hand, are exhibiting quite a different charty potential. Their share price broke the uptrend since 2020 and has now marginally regained the trend. This is often quite an encouraging signal, often hinting any preceding drop was “fake” and providing hope for the future. The initial level of trend-break was at 471p and with the share price now closing a session at 474p along with climbing through Red, it’s certainly time to rush out and buy some Lucky White Heather! The visuals from the chart extract also carry another implication, one being should the market opt to “Gap” BP’s share price up anytime now, it shall create a situation where a Long position becomes almost mandatory.

The immediate situation suggests movement above just 476 has the potential of triggering a lift to an initial 484 with our secondary, if bettered, a longer term 503p. Share price closure at this secondary level shall be important for the longer term, perhaps being the trigger for happy times ahead.

Our converse scenario demands the share price drop below 457 as this kicks open the doors for a slump to an initial 420 with secondary, if broken, at 380p. Currently there is nothing suggesting this game plan risks becoming reality.
