Lloyds Share Price Must Hold 46p Level

The following chart of LON: LLOY reveals certain key levels that the price has respected in the past. The most significant level in this regard is the 200 moving average on the daily chart, which currently lies at 46p. At the moment, the price is trading slightly above this level, but it needs to flip into support to unlock further upside.

Another critical level for Lloyds share forecast is the 44.6p level which is the swing low on the daily chart. A close breakdown below this level might result in a much bigger drop. However, I expect the price to rebound from the 44.6 support instead of breaking it in the coming days.
