How to trade Goldman Sachs into the results

The long-term price target of $429.10 suggests the share is currently trading at a discount of 37% to a perceived longer term fair value.

Goldman Sachs - technical view
The long-term trend for Goldman remains down as the price trades firmly below the 200-day simple moving average (SMA).
In the short-term, however we have a bullish wedge formation (red lines) and oversold signal on the company. This suggests that we could see a short-term rebound within the longer term uptrend.
The rebound would be considered following a break (close) above wedge resistance at roughly $328.90. This scenario would consider a move back towards the 375.50 level.
Traders respecting the longer term downtrend would, however look for a bearish reversal before this level ($375.50) for short entry. Alternatively, a break below wedge support ($299.60) could also suggest short entry with $269.70 the next support target.
