Our chartist reviews last week's performances and take a fresh look at Aston Martin's potential.

Last Week, This Week, and Aston Martin (LSE:AML) 

As for the markets, thus far Saga (LSE:SAGA) has triggered an upward movement, albeit slowly.

Lloyds Banking Group (LSE:LLOY) on the other hand appears intent on heading to an initial 51.8p, requiring above 58.8p to trash the prospects. And Barclays (LSE:BARC) has done nothing of note, despite their share price appearing more resilient than Lloyds.

Our "FTSE for FRIDAY" proved reliable, with the index comfortably moving to our initial 7,547 points. Thankfully, the market eventually closed the week above this target level at 7,552 points, giving considerable hope for the next few sessions.

The situation now suggests moves above 7,561 points should bring a visit to an initial 7,582 points.

If exceeded, secondary calculates at 7,617 points. Overall, the market needs break below 7,380 points to give early warning it's all about to go wrong.
Aston Martin Lagonda (LSE:AML) share price has certainly taken a tumble. Without going into a lot of boring detail, for some time we'd been calculating a bottom at around the four quid mark.

However, recent reversals cause us to revisit this potential, and now we're showing 539p as bottom. We cannot calculate share price closure below such a point. At present, the price requires to exceed 861p to regain the trend and give optimism. For now, it's less 007 and more Oh Oh.
