The Next Big Sell OffTypically I only trade the major stock indices when I can see a big move happening. This is because they are dictated by many individual stocks which of course can be influenced by a multitude of factors, so its very easy to get caught on the wrong side of an unexpected move. The great thing with major indices however is that they do serve as great reflections of the economy as a whole. Most if not all esteemed economists are predicting that 2019/2020 will see the next recession. I won't go into the reasons for this, simply because I don't have all the research myself and also I don't have the time. Simply put, my bias on all of the major indices is bearish. So when now assessing the price action we have seen develop over the past 12 months you can see this time last year saw a major rally into the 7900 region where we saw the 2018 high. Then throughout the majority of the year price was ranging above 7500 and below 7800 before we started to see the cracks emerge in the global stock market. Ever since price broke the 7500 barrier we have seen a major sell off, verging on official bear market conditions in some sectors. There was some temporary support of 7200 which has become a major Swing Level in the market but this got viciously broken in early October and as winter 2018 set in we only saw the market sell off even more. Even breaking the 7000 level! More recently since 2019 price has recovered above 7000 but still has not broken above the 7200 Key Swing Level mentioned previously. As I stated this level has become such a barrier because not only term of technical analysis has it created a resistance level and key swing level for price but also because price has never broken it since the widespread concerns within the global stock market come to the fore. So I am opening some short positions around this zone and will be targeting 7100 as a safe target that still leaves room for the market to range between 7000 and 7200.

SGRO Long This week I will be keeping an eye on the UK based REIT SGRO, their main business is managing industrial storage units, the stock is within 3% of its all time highs and is consolidating nicely around the 662 level. The consolidation has been a bit all over the place for my liking and that skews the entry a little bit as I like to clear all previous highs with my entry to avoid running into previous resistance but the spike on the first of march would make the entry too high from the level. that being side the price is bunching up nicely under the level and on the weekly scale an inside weekly doji gives me the feeling that we could see some action within next weeks trading. My improvised entry would be 663.2 as this clears the attempt on the 30th of January but if you want a clear margin of safety in the trade then 6666.3 would be the stop entry. This stock is a relatively low beta at 0.76 (yahoo finance) which I think could help it out given the weakness lately in the FTSE 100, I hope you liked this idea, if you did be sure to comment what you like if not then that's welcome too. Happy trading. Joe

SELL YOUR HOUSE AND GO LONG hahaYou can see from our support line ( green line ) that this is a VERY strong level that price has bounced of many times, Price has also bounced off this level this week and we can see a run up to our resistance zone ( green box ) Of course surrounding Brexit and businesses not knowing how the deal or no deal will affect them and trading then you have to be cautious trading the FTSE 100 as this is comprised of 100 companies listed on the London stock exchange with the highest market capitalisation, So any laws that stop these businesses earning will drastically affect the FTSE 100 price. We suggest trading this with a very tight SL, but we can see this been a very nice opportunity to go long and make some decent money. p.s don't actually sell your house you moron ;p

Paddy Power Betfair (PPB) Short PPB's investors haven't had much to laugh about this year, not even their comical television adds could cheer them up, i'm sorry to say that from the looks of the daily chart the stock could be in for some more pain soon. After a tremendous run in may the stock has seen a lot of downside until finally finding support at the 6000 level currently the price is having it's third attempt to break the support. In the run up to the last two tests of support the stock has put in lower highers which suggests that the sellers are fully in control of the stock, the last two trading days of last week posted bearish inside days suggesting some indecision in the stock indicating a potential move this week. I am inclined to go short in the name with a stop order at 5999 below support and a stop loss placed at the high of the day prior to the break out from the support. If you enjoyed this idea give me a follow there will be more to come and if you hated it please let me also, happy trading. Joe LSE:PPB
