Taking profits - Target price 1 reached on Spar  [JSE:SPP]

My Spar group Limited (SPP) trade that I put out on the 22nd of August has finally reached its first target price yesterday the 17th of October.

The price might retrace from the current levels as traders are taking profits but the longer-term view for Spar Group Limited (SPP) is looking good at this stage of the race.

I will be managing my stop loss from here if the price moves higher but at this stage I will keep it at 16344c.
