<p>If the price rises above the crucial zone, it could be strong enough to enter the selling zone. However, a strong bullish momentum would appear only after the TGT share price fills the gap and stabilizes above it. Until the next earnings is released, the price is expected to consolidate, forming a base to rally on. If it fails, new lows for 2023 can be expected.&nbsp;</p>
