Our chartist sees if this complicated share has what it takes to revisit historical highs.

Vast Resources

Our report yesterday against Eurasia Mining (LSE:EUA) provoked a "bloody 'ell" moment in the office. We didn't expect an 67%-plus rise the next day.

Importantly, the price has not yet reached 1.94p, the best achieved being 1.92p and, thus, the initial target has not been exceeded (yet). If it goes nuts again, we shall revisit the share. As for Vast Resources (LSE:VAST), are we expecting similar behaviour?

Presently at 0.3p, the share needs trade above 0.39p to give sufficient ammunition to a calculation which projects a useless movement to 0.46p.

All kidding aside, the really important stuff starts to happen if 0.46p bettered as our secondary computes at 0.59p.

Visually, this projects the share into "game changing" territory as realistically 0.93p looks capable of presenting a longer term (or the next day!) attraction.

It's certainly a complicated share, but worth remembering you are playing with fire. The chart suggests since September, something has been happening to shatter the calm of 2019's lack of price movement, so perhaps it's worth keeping an eye open in the week ahead.

The price would require slippage below 0.2p to justify hysterics as we cannot calculate any sort of bottom number. Will it ever recover to its historical highs of 30p? We suspect only, if it lives up to its name and discovers some Vast Resources...
