Tsogo Sun - WHich way to break out? R1.94 or R27.69?The daily is very noisy.
Even the weekly is crazy.
So I had to really break it down and look at the monthly chart.
And what we can see is the noise being reduced to a RECTANGLE.
Now right now the price action is down. Despite the breakin uptrend. Despite the higher lows.
The current momentum is down. And all we can do is wait for a breakout.
Which way to Break?
Break down - R1.94
Break up - R27.69
I am going to remain neutral and this play is a MAJOR patience game that can take YEARS to play out.
I don't like what I'm seeing with the fundamentals:
High Level of Debt:
Tsogo Sun has been reported to have a high level of debt.
A substantial debt burden can be a concern for investors as it may affect the company's financial flexibility and profitability due to the interest and repayments required.
Unstable Dividend Track Record:
The company has had an unstable dividend track record, which may lead to concerns about the consistency of returns to shareholders.
Valuation Concerns:
Even though the stock has been trading below what is estimated as its fair value, investors may still have concerns about the future growth prospects and other intrinsic valuation metrics.
Performance Relative to Industry:
Tsogo Sun has underperformed the ZA Hospitality industry, which returned 5.1% over the past year, indicating that it may not be keeping pace with its industry peers.
TSG trade ideas
Our opinion on the current state of TSGTsogo (TSG) is a gaming, hotel and entertainment business which has split into separate gaming and hotel businesses in order to unlock shareholder value and to enable each business to become much more focused. As President Ramaphosa stabilises the economy, following the pandemic and introduces more growth-oriented policies we can expect business and consumer confidence to gradually recover. The company's investment in limited payout machines (LPM) and electronic bingo terminals (EBT) has proved to be profitable. These are located mainly in restaurants and bars and outperform larger gambling outlets, but they are impacted by COVID-19. In its results for the six months to 30th September 2023 the company reported income up 7% and headline earnings per share (HEPS) up 48%. The company said, "The cost of diesel of R55 million for the period and the adverse effect on income due to high levels of load shedding, negatively impacted the group's interim period position and margins. Higher interest cost of R54 million also had an adverse effect on headline earnings". We have been saying for some time that the share looks oversold to us. Since COVID-19, the share has been in an extended "island formation" but it has broken to the upside - which probably indicates that investors were overly pessimistic. We believe that it still represents good value at current levels.

The company's investment in limited payout machines (LPM) and electronic bingo terminals (EBT) has proved to be profitable.

In its results for the year to 31st March 2023 the company reported income up 27% and headline earnings per share (HEPS) up 38%. The company said, "The group also managed to reduce its net interest-bearing debt and guarantees by approximately R1.0 billion, from R9.0 billion at 31 March 2022, to R8.0 billion at 31 March 2023. The cost of diesel and the adverse effect on income due to high levels of load shedding, especially in January and February 2023, negatively impacted the group's expected year end position and margins". In a trading statement for the six months to 30th September 2023 the company estimated that HEPS would increase by between 43% and 51%.

$JSETSG - Tsogo Sun Gaming: Head & Shoulder or Triple Top?The share had a good run from May 2020 rallying from R1,71 to peak at R13,00 in November 2021.
Since that peak, the share has made new highs but the bulls seem to not have the steam to break R14,00.
The three peaks at R13,00/R13,87/R13,75 can be viewed as a triple top and the MACD indicator has been flat in this price area.
This price formation calls for caution and for one to monitor price action at the neckline.
TSG: correction on the horizon?Below 980 supports a bearish trend direction.
Bearish MACD crossover (lower panel) confirms a change in trend direction to bearish.
Downside price momentum supports the bearish trend.
Price action is also overbought, which increases the likelihood of a correction that might be temporary in nature.
Tsogo Sun Gaming: Target Range Reached, Reduce/Take ProfitTSG has advanced to trade in the mid-point of my target zone. Higher by 22% over the 1 month since publication, traders could use these levels to reduce as momentum appears to be in tact or, take profit.
The name is now also higher by 179% from my original long idea in October 2020 (also attached).

JSE:TSG Tsogo Sun Gaming Breaking OutTsogo Sun showed a major sign of strength (MSoS) in June 2020. We are now breaking the highs of that push with a significant bar on some volume. This opens some upside potential with the next major resistance level at around R20. Using the significant bar and yearly pivot point as stop loss (SL) gives a great risk-reward trade.
TSGLast Close (TSG, 593c) | TSG is developing another setup, this time trading just below the overhead resistance level of a base that has developed over an 11-month period. Having cleared the mid-point of it's weekly linear regression 2 standard deviation, the price action is positive, with a print and weekly close above 619c being the trigger for further upside. Also acting as a positive signal is the weekly RSI trading at 61, which is considered 'strong'. Provisional Levels: BUY TSG on a weekly close above 619c. Stop-loss: 566c. Targets: 780c and 900c. Chart Time Frame: Weekly
Tsogo Sun Gaming - Pending Long On Trigger LevelsTsogo Sun Gaming | Double breaks of key levels can often serve as significant long or short signals. In this case, TSG trades just below it's pivot level and 50-day exponential moving average. We also note the price having been in a moderate downward trend over a 7-week period similar to mid=April to late May and mid-June to early August. The trigger for a long would be a large green igniting candle above 370c, preferably accompanied with elevated volume. Provisional levels: Buy on a daily close above 370c, using a stop-loss of 325c and target of 485c.
