BATS trade ideas
will support hold on BTI the market is currently in an ascending channel and is testing the support of the pattern, the market has history of finding value when it tests this level , to confirm bullish continuation we can use the smaller time frame look for supporting patterns like bullflags etc, if the market fails to close above support it might signal further selling pressure
BTI - Area of interest - After trading the bearish breakdown on British American Tobacco, it has returned to a level of interest where it could find some support and have a bounce up towards R580 ↗️( mean revert) . Below R490 will indicate further weakness ↘️
- Looking for a bullish daily candle close.
- Trendline indicates support and stochastics are oversold.

Knock out some exposure to the UK & pickup this 8% Dividend
Interesting stat is that 14% of the British Smoke and about 14% of Americans also smoke.
Quitting this habit was hard! But I'm all for supporting the 53,000 people working hard here paying out a 8.08% Dividend!
ROE 9%
ROA 4%
ROI 6%
Moving average is sloping down however price potentially bottomed here in the price action, and selling volume increased, but volume dropped today.
I think we found support here. I hope so because I longed this today.
P/E 9.51 (great value)
Debt/Eq 0.73 (Moderate debt largely LT)
P/FCF 12.06 (very good)

Range breakout British American TobaccoBritsh American Tobacco
The share has been trading in the R708-R494 range since 2019. The share has been trending downwards towards the bottom of the range, before pausing first in the R600-560 range. It recently tested the 50 week EMA, and it held well as resistance. If we break below the R560, more so below R543 (3% below the support). We could see some more pressure on the share targeting the R494 levels.

BTI holding a floor at R560. British American Tobacco is essentially a cash printing company. The big downside risks are regulation and reduction in tobacco use. I fully believe big tobacco firms will be able to capture a good amount of the vaping market over the next 3-5 years. In the meantime though the share price is at a ridiculous discount. and it is an excellent dividend payer. Solid solid solid financials and a real bargain for those seeking stable returns and also a 2 month trade plan.
Buy to hold long term under R561. Enjoy excellent dividend (quarterly) Sell at ~R640 if it gets there before October ends and wait for another entry. Stop loss R525.
