Flash Note: Sasol - At A Key Level (Short Term Idea)The price has retraced toward the prior breakout zone and has met up with:
- Horizontal support
- Incline Support
Some buying seen in the afternoon session, with the price on this chart being 26835c. After a few days of weakness (down from 320), it may be worth a look for a ultra short term rebound play.
Stop-Loss: below the support level ~ 26468c.
$JSESOL Sasol time to buy again?Sasol has come under sustained pressure over the last three days, after news broke out that they experienced an explosion at their LCCP facilities. The market is concerned surrounding the potential for further delays to this project as a result of the damages caused.
From a technical point of view, the counter is now retesting the breakout of the triangular bottom reversal pattern, and should we see Sasol manage to hold and reverse off current levels of approximately R282, i believe we could have the potential for a good risk-reward trade here to buy the stock. What gives me confidence in the triangle bottom pattern is the fact that the break-out on the 17th December to the upside occurred on significantly increased volume. The current level we are trading at the time of writing this, is not only a retest of the triangular pattern, but it is also where we find both the 89/100 day moving averages as well as the 61.8% fib retracement of the most recent swing highs and lows.
Keep an eye on action around current levels, as any sign of a reversal could well be an opportunity to buy the stock with a tight stop and a potential for the counter to push back to recent highs of R330. (The triangle bottom pattern still has a much higher target in place of R370 should this play out in a textbook fashion).
Add to an old tradeGood place to add to our trade. Remember we have an open trade on SOL since October. We open this on the back of that yellow zone which has been successfully defended since December. So we expect whoever is fighting this battle to take us to our Take Profit at the 35 000 zone. Very good RR as well.
Entry: 30 100
SL: 28 565
TP: 34 900
I cant overemphasise appropriate risk management!
JSE:SOL Sasol Pullback in DowntrendSasol has been week and recently broke out of a long term trading range (TR). However, more recently an accumulation TR has formed that could take us back to test the long term TR. We have backed up (BU) to the accumulation TR and I am now looking for a break higher back to the longer term TR.
Long term value unlockSOL seems to have bottomed and continues to consolidate under R300 progressively posting higher lows. Should the Lake Charles project finally become earnings accretive, there seems to be some value to unlock longer term. Such a positive catalyst could see us retest a previously well established support line (Suspect will be strong resistance)
SASOL - Running out of fuel...- Looking to see what price does at R250 level for and entry as i suspected a consildation will develop which can be traded (range)
- Failure to hold that level will open up new downside risk

Pairs Idea - Long SOL Short SGLEquities Pair Long SOL / Short SGL | At current levels, the price, as per the ratio chart is finding buying support at the prior swing low seen in August 2016. What is very interesting is the extension (distance) from the 200-day moving average. Using the prior swing support lows as an example we saw the price (prior to the massive bullish reversal) trading at 53% below the 200-day MA. At current levels this number is 58%, which may suggest that the price is overextended to the downside and offer an opportunity to take a position in the pair.
