NatWest sign 600

We anticipate the potential of further good times for retail bank NatWest Group (LSE:NWG).

From a chart perspective, something positive seems to be happening. In the three weeks since our previous report, NatWest has carefully avoided dipping below 300p with the share price remaining in positive territory.

The situation now imparts considerable hope, with movement above 329p suggesting recovery to a significant 340p, a price level where some hesitation is expected.

Our secondary, should such a level be exceeded, calculates at a longer-term 382p, a pretty solid step on a path to a future 468p.

As always, we can toss a converse scenario into the mix with the share price needing to slip below 307p to potentially trigger reversals to 292p and a very hopeful rebound.

If broken, our secondary works out at 279p, once again dumping the share price into stodgy territory from which enthusiasm for recovery shall become muted.
