While we wait for the Scottish football team's ritual slaughter at the hands of Brazil, it’s certainly looking worth taking a hard look at OSB Group (LSE:OSB) as their share price looks poised for some positive action.

Movement next above just 532p could make things interesting, giving the potential of a lift to an initial 552p with our secondary, if exceeded, calculating at a future 576p. This secondary is a fairly big deal, giving the share price the potential of closing above the immediate blue downtrend, thus dumping the price into a zone where a long-term third level of 653p calculates as viable.
On the other hand, our negative scenario is pretty vile, suggesting below 493p threatens a trip to an initial 464p with our secondary, if broken, at 403p and perhaps a decent rebound.
While the share is currently looking visually confused, on balance we’re leaning toward optimism for the future.
