SASOL - Short IdeaFollowing up on the previous observation, it was important for bulls to defend the R322 level and this has since broken.
I will be looking for opportunities to short while price remains below the 50 day moving average which has since formed a "death cross"
Stoploss = Daily close above R335
Target will be the next swing lows around R230 and then measured move of the head &shoulders pattern .

SOLBE1 trade ideas
Sasol, weakJSE:SOL has been trading below a key MA since early July, it showed characteristics of a Stage 3 setup. A selloff was seen on the ex divi date, and some market participants were comfortable to assume that the selloff was due to ex divi, fair enough. The dividend has been paid now, JSE:SOL is now below a minor support level, it it continues with the downward movement, it may test R290/share
SASOL SELL Box Formation 13 SeptemberSasol broke below the Rectangle (Bearish) formation...
It looks like there is a lot of downside to come for the stock as well as oil...
The next support is based on the last years 12 September 2021 level at R245.00
That's where Sasol has a good chance of reaching.
Thoughts?
SOL: mean reversion tradeA high likelihood of a mean reversion trade is possible.
Remains above its 200-day simple moving average.
Furthermore, a price action above 22500 supports a bullish trend direction.
Further trend support above 35100.
Crossing above 35900 might target 38300.
Crossing below 34300 might be the first sign of pending weakness.
Upside price momentum (see the lower panel) also supports a bullish trend direction.

Sasol - Short/Sell Target Reached At R374Wednesday's Original Idea Attached.
Sasol - Target Reached At R374. I looked for an upside gap close and 8 21 re-test at 408-410 before the move lower. This share was the biggest decliner on the JSE Top 40 today, shedding 8.4% and exceeding the full target of 37400c.
Including SOL, this week I highlighted 8 opportunities to bank/take profit on published trade ideas. Some from this week and others following through from last/previous weeks.
There were zero stop-losses hit i.e. failed ideas. The last two stops hit were last week, that being IMP (leg 1 & 2 targets hit, 3rd stop) and SLM (leg 1 & 2 targets hit, 3rd stop). You'll recall I mentioned both of these names last Friday.
The 'take profits' this week were as follows:
MONDAY: Old Mutual, Mondi Plc, GBP/JPY, S&P 500, USDZAR
TUESDAY: Natural Gas
THURSDAY: USD/JPY
FRIDAY: Sasol (detail as mentioned above)
Well done to all who traded and took advantage of the opportunities highlighted.
A good weekend to all.
SASOL - Does the trend continue? - Sasol has pulled back from a R438 swing high and had an initial test of the blue 50 day moving average.
- Bulls will need to defend the R390 zone to keep the trend intact
:Possible scenarios i'm looking for:
1) A consolidation here before attempting to push higher continuing the trend
2) A failure at R390 for a deeper pullback towards R350

SOLSasol SOL 40331c - Zooming out. Upside gap at 40842c could be closed first however downside risk if 40200c is lost.
An unfilled gap at 40842c, created by Monday's open may be closed however, the incline support extending back to the 20 December 2021 lows should be monitored for a potential 'failure to hold'. The share also trades at the lower boundary of a rising wedge/channel, which if breached, could see lower levels being tested. One possibility is the lower boundary of the large channel (two parallel white lines) where the price target is approximately R360 to R370. The gap is also at average of 8 21-EMA, both of which are losing upside momentum. Also note, the price (40331c) appears extended vs it's quarterly pivot of 34015c.
The white arrow represents the potential price path.
Key risk level: R402
Sell on a break below: 40200c (Strong offers would be added confirmation of deteriorating price weakness and /or bearish reversal)
Stop-loss: 41330c
Target: 37400c
