Our world famous FTSE for Friday. And a Genedrive thought!

#FTSE #Genedrive With the countdown to Xmas, as usual there’s the seasonal speculation for the possibility of a forthcoming “Santa Rally” in the marketplace. To be fair on the FTSE, presently trading around 7,320 points, the index only need exceed 7,405 points to provide a pretty solid expectation for coming growth of around 4.2% from current, potentially to around 7,631 points.

Almost laughably, this would return the index to a level last seen at Christmas 2019, when the market closed on Xmas eve at 7,632 points. Numbers can be a strange thing, yet as clearly exhibited by Genedrive in our report for the 9th December (yesterda), the share price indeed exceeded our 68p trigger and exactly hit our 81p initial target 44 minutes later. We also note our initial target was not exceeded, running the risk of the price messing around for a while.

 

From a near term perspective, the FTSE now requires exceed 7,366 to suggest coming movement to an initial 7,380 points. If bettered, we can calculate a secondary at 7,431 points, quite cheerfully above the trigger level which is supposed to trigger a mythical “Santa Rally”. Then again, as we live in an age where politicians frown on all frivolity and ensure their behaviour meets the lowest standards expected in public office, perhaps politics shall conspire to derail any optimism.

However, should the dream come true in the days ahead, the Big Picture tells us above 7,405 is supposed to provoke FTSE a recovery cycle to an initial 7,474 with secondary, if bettered, at our 7,631 points.

 

Should things intend for pear shaped, below 7,287 looks capable of triggering reversal to an almost certain 7,236 points. If broken, we can calculate a secondary at 7,188 points and hopefully some sort of real bounce.

Have a good weekend, hopefully one which shall see a UK driver lift the F1 World Drivers championship for the 8th time.

Huge thanks to those who discover interesting adverts on this page. The tiny amount of income literally buys us our daily coffee!

Thanks again.

Genedrive Plc is looking good

#Gold #CAC40 We’ve never been entirely comfortable we understand where “ratings” actually come for, when shares are being discussed. Genedrive is a case in point, currently assigned with a “Strong Buy” technical rating. We opted to poke around and there’s the usual nonsense, references to Upward Channels, discussion about Moving Averages, along with inevitable comments from true believers, deciding it’s a buy no matter what.

The reason we’re somewhat flippant is simple. The share price has achieved a high of 74.75 and closed a session at 63p. As the chart for the last year highlights, the price is now above the immediate downtrend and also is trading higher than at any point since June. We’re great fans of Higher Highs and feel a chart, unadorned with colourful technical indicators, should be give sufficient information to those who fail to understand technical indicators. We’ve shown two identical charts below, the upper one focussed on the level at which the share price closed. The lower one is decorated with colourful candles and the important thing is straightforward. Both charts give an impression of a share price which looks very capable of future gains for this established molecular diagnostics company.

 

Near term, above 68p now looks capable of further price recovery to an initial 81p with secondary, if bettered, at 92p. Our secondary is an important point, a level where the share price requires close to enter quite a different cycle of price movements. Long story short, closure above 92p allows an initial 123p with secondary, if bettered, a distant looking 160p.

Strictly speaking, if everything intends go pear shaped, the share price requires below 33p to justify panic. This obviously gives a heck of a lot of wriggle room for the price in the months ahead and unfortunately, the earliest warning looks like it shall come if the price closes a session below 41p.

Aviva Plc & some Ethereum thoughts

#FTSE #WallSt_Futures With the UK market making “surprise” recovery from the supposed panic of Omicron, we’re curious as to whether some of the major components of the FTSE 100 shall finally exhibit proper recovery strength. Our key issue remains a demand the FTSE exceed 7550 points but shares such as Aviva, already playing tag with its pre-pandemic high, may prove amongst the first to surge firmly.

Visually, there’s little doubt some sort of glass ceiling exists at the 420p level and with the share presently trading around the 400p mark, it certainly doesn’t require much movement to kick things into life. From an immediate standpoint, above 404p apparently has an initial target of 421p. Once again, this challenges the 420p glass ceiling which has been creating a nuisance since April this year. With closure above our 421p target level, this have the potential to become interesting as our secondary target level calculates at 449p, maybe even a game changing movement for the longer term.

The issue with our 449p ambition dates back to 2018 as, for some reason, the market decided to anoint the 440p level with glass ceiling status. It’s creating a strange scenario, where essentially the share price requires two different 20p gains before everyone can risk buying a party popper. Only once both the 420 & the 440 glass ceilings shatter dare we express confidence a longer term track toward a distant 671p has commenced.

If Aviva intends spoil our calculations, the share price needs close a session below 347p.

Ethereum (COIN:ETHUSD) Recently, Bitcoin has been all over the place but for some reason, Ethereum has behaved with relative sanity. The immediate scenario hints the price should become especially interesting, should it exceed 4,490 US dollars. This should prove capable of triggering price growth to 4,886 next. By a tiny amount, this creates a new all time high for the crypto and permits us to calculate a longer term (or the next day!) potential of $5,937.

If things intend go Bitcoin shaped, Ethereum needs trade below $3,900 as this calculates with a reversal potential to $3,549 with secondary, if broken, down at $3,102 and hopefully a bottom.

All this optimism against Ethereum has an issue with our gloomy attitude to Bitcoin. We shall not be aghast, if Bitcoin eventually makes its way down to a bottom of $38,000!

Again, our thanks to those who find adverts on this page worthy of a visit. You’re keeping us afloat with coffee!

Zephyr Energy revisited and Conroy Gold

#Gold #DAX From what we can see, the only thing these two companies have in common is they both trade on the London Stock Exchange. But for some reason, we’re received a few emails asking if we’d consider reviewing them. As inspiration is always welcome, we’re delighted to do so, especially as both are exhibiting some potentials.

Firstly, Conroy Gold share price appears to be cheerfully ignoring the present hiatus in which the price of Gold finds itself. Our bottom line, presently, is unless the price of Gold manages above US$1,871, it’s at risk of remaining quite boring. Additionally, it must be pointed out Gold is presently trading in a region where it only needs someone to look at the price the wrong way and it risks reversal to US$1,623. One aspect, perhaps worthy of consideration, is any potential effect on ScotGold Plc, the listed explorer working in Scotland. If one looks at the map of Conroys mining areas in the North of Ireland and draws a straight line extension from the fault line they are working with, it appears to coincide with Scotgold’s site in Argyll. However, we suspect there’s probably more to this geology lark than messing around with Google Maps…

 

For now, movement on Conroy share price above 32p looks capable of gains toward an initial 36p. If bettered, our secondary calculation works out at 49p and this risks an interesting prospect for the longer term. A gain such as this carries the potential for the price to close a session above 46p, beating its previous high at the start of this year and therefore, allowing a longer term 69p to enter the frame.

Zephyr Energy Plc From the start of July this year, this share price has been essentially messing around. We reviewed them at the start of September, giving a trigger level of 7.1p and promising the heavens if the price exceeded this point. Rather spitefully, the share indeed exceeded our trigger but the best achieved has been movement to 7.8p, pretty distant from our initial ambition of 8.3p. However, when we study the strength of movements since July, we’re given sufficient reason to revisit our tea leaves to amend the future potentials.

There are slight changes to our calculated results as now above 7.8p looks capable of movement to an initial 8.9p. Our longer term secondary, if the initial is bettered, works out at 12.2p. If everything intends go horribly wrong, the share price needs drill below 4.7p to justify concern.

Yet again, our thanks to the nice people who discover an advert worth a visit on this website. We appreciate the coffee visits effectively buy.

Barclays and BoE potentials

#Brent_Futures #DAX For Barclays, news of their recent penalty for sterling trading activities almost a decade ago must have felt similar to the 10 second race penalty given to Louis Hamiltons competitor in the Saudi Arabia GP. The fine amount of £50m+ was inconsequential, when viewed against the probable gains. Similarly, behaviour intended to cause a crash, resulted in a slap on the wrist which did nothing to change the points total.

The final race of the season has both drivers entering on equal points, meaning the world championship depends on a single race in the UAE next weekend. Perhaps a dream situation which should generate impressive viewing figures but the penalty is a nuisance, doing nothing to actually deter utterly appalling behaviour on the race track. Equally, it remains possible the banks will continue to make their own rules, until such time legal action is taken against all the individuals involved.

 

When we reviewed Barclays share price a few weeks ago, we’d a fairly justified lack of optimism, a tone which appears justified. Maybe it shall be the case of news from the Bank of England being poised to loosen (some truly absurd) mortgage lending rules. Things have gotten so bad, when friends had their offer to buy a house accepted, they eventually cancelled their mortgage application and opted to make the purchase from savings. Their brush with “jobsworth” behaviour led to an expectation the lender was doubtless going to require details of the change of numbers of chest-hairs over the last 5 years, such was the absurdity being given to justify constant delays in the application. Somehow, the very salient element kept being ignored, they didn’t actually need a mortgage!

Surely it must be the case easing of lending rules shall finally benefit the banks?

 

From a strictly charty viewpoint, Barclays share price now looks destined to head to 217p as the next major point of interest. The share price has already exceeded the high, pre-pandemic, of 184p, and while it’s tending to treat this level as a flat trend, essentially bouncing above and below, we’re hopeful for its future. Now, when we apply similar growth models to those experienced in wider markets, should the 217p level be exceeded, we can now calculate 229p as a viable secondary ambition.

The recent discovery of another variant for Covid-19 saw Barclays share price gapped down by the market, in common with virtually everything else. As a result, we are supposed to accept ongoing weakness below 180p should threaten reversal to an initial 173p with secondary, if broken, at 166p and hopefully a solid bounce. This level of reversal does not open the share up to panic, the price needing below 157p to justify serious concerns.

For now, we believe this intends 217p, just requiring unbelievable levels of patience and ideally, no new pandemic.


Massive thanks to those who found useful adverts here over the weekend. To be honest, it’s pretty unusual as we tend not expect anyone to visit at weekends!

Our famous FTSE for Friday

For some reason, December always feels like a month which runs on “fast forward”, at least 2x normal speed. Until, of course, Xmas day dawns with the agony of waiting to discover if the present for your other half either fits, is the right colour, the right shoe size, the correct wattage, or whatever. As someone who, honestly, was given an electric food blender for his birthday a few days ago, it appears the rules have changed and this year, perhaps I should’ve opted to buy my wife a new electric iron.

The food blender thing wasn’t even a joke, instead an attempt to address something I moan about weekly. The problem was, I make my own bread, always complaining about the process of blending the ingredients and kneading the dough. To put this into context, mixing the various flours takes a couple of minutes, kneading the dough takes just 3 minutes. (It’s bread, just not as sane people know it. Gluten free and suitable for a Keto diet). When I attempted to use the blender, the mix process worked aside from everything clinging to the bowl. After adding liquid and plugging in the kneading attachments, the true problem reared its head, the dough paste opting to cling to the walls of the bowl and requiring scraped off constantly, in the hope the heavyweight spinning metal would pay attention. Rather a lot of the product found itself clinging to my person or the wall.

From start to finish (including cleaning it), the process took over 30 minutes. Instead of just 5 minutes. Thankfully it only took a few minutes to put it back in its box, never to be used again.

What has this got to do with the FTSE? Very little, if being honest other than justified irritation at being given the answer to a problem which didn’t exist.

 

Obviously, many traders must feel a deep seated need to pummel the market like bread dough! But that’s not it. It’s more a case of stepping back to examine things, along with a realisation the FTSE has spent this week messing around. Every day, the market has opened down, only to spend the rest of the session recovering. The lack of any appreciable gain is a little worrisome but perhaps we shouldn’t moan about it. Instead, just wait until the UK discovers sufficient excuse to take above the high of the week, 7183 points.

We can analyse things all day but until the market actually makes a move, it’s far too complicated to search for answers. In the case of the FTSE, until it’s actually discovered the latest branding of Covid-19 is serious, things shall doubtless remain marching on the spot.

From a near term perspective, should the FTSE manage above 7183, we can calculate the potential of movement to an initial 7220 points. If exceeded, our secondary works out at 7261 points.

Our alternate scenario required the UK index to weaken below 7070 as this risks triggering an unpleasant series of reversals. Initially, we’re looking for 7035 points with secondary, if broken, at a bottom (ideally) at 6986 points. Below 6986 has a warning, our software suggesting a cycle to an eventual 6686 becomes possible.

 

Have a good weekend and remember to enjoy the first ever Saudi grand prix.

Our thanks to those who find adverts on this page worth a visit.

Are TUI Group hibernating for winter?

#CAC40_Futures #Nasdaq When we previously reviewed #TUI, we speculated on whether the troubled German travel company would bounce at 211p. Alas. its first reversal to our target happened last October with the share managing to briefly break 211p by a minimal amount on the first surge downward. While the price appeared to bounce at 210.7p, we dare not ignore this initial break and now, with the share trading at 205p, we’re curious if the new Covid variant provokes further trouble.

Importantly, the share price is now trading at an all time low, rarely an encouraging signal, and despite the bounce from our 211p level being around 20%, the share price actually required exceed 290p before ticking the first box to suggest safety. This resultant situation illustrates how unpleasant the market can be, when demanding a share price go up by 40% before it becomes a ‘safe’ buy can sound quite ridiculous.

 

The immediate situation for TUI Group suggests ongoing weakness below 189p risks reversal to 178p initially. We’ve fairly reasonable arguments anticipating some sort of rebound should such a level appear, especially as our secondary (should 178 break) calculates at a visually absurd ultimate bottom of 56p! Perhaps everything depends on if the new virus variant justifies yet another ban on foreign travel but we notice some conciliatory language is now being used in the media, indicating “they” finally are starting to appreciate scare stories without foundation serve no purpose.

The alternate scenario, if we look for early signals which point to a proper bounce, suggest movement above 224p should bring an initial 230p. If bettered, our secondary calculation provides at 255p, this liable to prove important for the longer term. Closure above 255p should make ongoing recovery to 316p possible, taking the share price above the current Blue downtrend into a zone where some safety can be assumed.

Our thanks to the folk who find the occasional advert on this page worth a visit. Quite literally, it buys us a coffee.

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.
