Obviously, this target level was achieved and exceeded with an exquisite set of dance steps last November as shown on the fascinating chart excerpt below. Okay, we found it fascinating as it confirmed our target level and proved it could be bettered. On the 2025 report chart, we painted 1201p as a potential future level but didn&#8217;t bother mentioning it, expecting to revisit the share long before it became an issue.\u00a0 This third level target level was also attained, confirmed, and exceeded in early January, again shown on a chart extract below.<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">A major Oops, though with curiously similar dance steps to the November 2025 target breach..<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">\u00a0 <span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial; font-size: medium;\"> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.trendsandtargets.com\/img\/hsba250226.jpg\" width=\"506\" height=\"207\" border=\"0\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">HSBC opted to join the UK banking share price party and has (thus far) exhibited extraordinary strength.<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">From our perspective, the next hurdle for the share resided at 1315p, a target level recently attained and even very slightly exceeded, the share price closing a session at 1318p in early February. The big question now is simple; can we anticipate even more flamboyance in the period ahead?<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">We&#8217;re inclined to advocate caution. Currently, above 1323p paints 1376p as an initial target with our secondary, if bettered, at a future 1409p. We are more than a little nervous, thanks to the Big Picture. Our calculations which date back to the banking crisis of 2009 suggest we should only admit 1376p as a major target. Anything higher, in this instance, would take the share into difficult territory, making us suspect some real hesitation should be anticipated at 1376p. In fact, given the share value, this could be effectively anytime now.<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">If trouble is planned, below 1222p risks becoming an issue as this threatens reversal down to an initial 1151p with our secondary, if broken, working out at 1133p and an almost certain bounce.<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">Once again, we&#8217;re getting a little worried about banking sector prices&#8230;<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\"><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial; font-size: medium;\"> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"
