FTSE 100 Index
UKX Hourly - Push higher likely to stallI would be surprised if this bounce continues much higher before a pullback/some consolidation. We are hitting double resistance - Lateral and downward sloping. There is also some hidden bearish RSI divergence. Ideally would like to see 7070 tested and then will re-assess
UKX Hourly - Approaching double resistance FTSE has a habit of issuing a signal then giving one last final squeeze - is the same happening again post the break down of the rising wedge? I'm still holding onto my prior shorts and using this opportunity to add. Currently at double resistance at 7190. RSI also showing divergence as well as being overbought. Good RR here I reckon for a short.
UKX Hourly - Nice pullback off resistance Nice pullback this morning off the top of the megaphone formation identified yesterday. There is double support around 7015/25 = lateral and upward sloping. A break below here targets 6980 and 6940. 6900 would see the bottom of the megaphone formation and the next large support region shaded in red. My bias would like to see it lower - but ideally would need to wait for confirmation. Also need to bare in mind that its not unusual to see selling into month end followed by a rally at the beginning of the new month
UKX Hourly - Consolidating before next leg higher Decent bounce o/n / this morning following yesterday's sell off. I still favour a further move to the upside to test the initial break down. Can potentially see a bit of consolidation here in the red zone before targeting 6980. RSI has also broken out.
UKX Hourly - Approaching lateral supportThe 7025/6080 support area failed as expected following 4 previous bounces and a subsequent bear flag. We are now approaching new lateral support as the RSI heads into oversold territory. I will look to start averaging back into my ISA and SIPP accounts hoping for a bounce. When zoomed out the longer term picture is looking slightly more worrying - we may be approaching a sell a rally vs. buy the dip. Will monitor closely
