FTSE100 Q4 23 and Q1 24 Support and resistance levelsA support and resistance diagram for the FTSE 100 provides a visual representation of key price levels where the index tends to find buying or selling pressure. This tool is widely used by traders and analysts to make informed decisions about their trading strategies. Here's an overview of what such a diagram may look like: 1. **Horizontal Lines**: A support and resistance diagram for the FTSE 100 typically includes horizontal lines at various price levels. These lines represent historical points where the index's price has either stalled (resistance) or rebounded (support). 2. **Support Levels**: Support levels are price points where the FTSE 100 tends to find buying interest. When the index approaches a support level, it often experiences a bounce or a slowdown in its downtrend. Traders often view these levels as potential buying opportunities. 3. **Resistance Levels**: Resistance levels are price points where the FTSE 100 tends to encounter selling pressure. When the index approaches a resistance level, it often struggles to move beyond that point. Traders consider these levels as potential selling opportunities. 4. **Trendlines**: In addition to horizontal lines, trendlines may also be included in the diagram. Trendlines connect the peaks (resistance) and troughs (support) in the FTSE 100's price movement, helping to visualize the prevailing trend. 5. **Historical Data**: The diagram may be plotted based on historical price data, which can be adjusted to reflect different timeframes (e.g., daily, weekly, monthly). The longer the timeframe, the more significant the support and resistance levels tend to be. 6. **Annotations**: Traders often add annotations to the diagram to provide context or highlight specific events or news that may have influenced the FTSE 100's price movements at certain levels. 7. **Volume Indicators**: Some traders incorporate volume indicators into their support and resistance diagrams. Volume can provide additional insights into the strength or weakness of support and resistance levels. 8. **Dynamic Levels**: In dynamic support and resistance diagrams, the lines may shift over time as new price data becomes available. This reflects the evolving nature of financial markets and allows traders to adapt their strategies accordingly. 9. **Psychological Levels**: Certain price levels, such as round numbers or key milestones (e.g., 10,000 points), can have psychological significance and may be included in the diagram as potential support or resistance levels. 10. **Trading Strategies**: Traders use these support and resistance levels to develop trading strategies. For example, a common strategy is to buy near support levels with a stop-loss just below the support, and sell near resistance levels with a stop-loss just above the resistance. Overall, a support and resistance diagram for the FTSE 100 serves as a valuable tool for technical analysis and helps traders make informed decisions based on historical price behavior. However, it's important to note that these levels are not foolproof, and market conditions can change rapidly, so traders should use them in conjunction with other analysis methods and risk management strategies.

UK100 to find buyers at market?UK100 - 24h expiry Price action has continued to trend strongly lower and has stalled at the previous support near 7425. We expect a reversal in this move. Risk/Reward would be poor to call a buy from current levels. A move through 7500 will confirm the bullish momentum. The measured move target is 7600. We look to Buy at 7420 (stop at 7360) Our profit targets will be 7570 and 7600 Resistance: 7500 / 7550 / 7600 Support: 7450 / 7425 / 7400 Risk Disclaimer The trade ideas beyond this page are for informational purposes only and do not constitute investment advice or a solicitation to trade.

UK100: Continuation watchToday's focus: UK100 Index Pattern – Continuation Pattern Support – 7629 - 7588 Resistance – 7720, 7916 Thanks for checking out today's update. Today, we have run over UK100, breaking down the overall price picture, levels, and patterns and incorporating moving average and RSI into the analysis. The primary focus of today's look at the UK100 is the current uptrend, forming a new higher low in today's session. This continues to push the case for a new leg high from buyers. Resistance at 7720 is the first big test, and if we can see a new move up, this level needs to be cleared to break the current range. If today's fightback from 7629 support fails, we could see a move that may try to retest the range base. We will be watching Price and mainly Buyers over the next several sessions to see if we get a breakout. Good trading.
