#FTSE for FRIDAY #Brent #Nasdaq With a wry smile, a newspaper headline suggesting politicians plan to panic both the stock market and currency markets to instil fear, should their Brexit plans fail acceptance, came as no surprise. Didn’t the #Tesla guy use a similar gambit prior to losing his job? Probably a win-win scenario for those involved in Brexit.
To suggest the FTSE is confusing at present risks understating the situation. From an immediate perspective, there’s the threat of weakness below 6940 bringing traffic down to an initial 6895 points. If broken, secondary is at 6858 points. If triggered, stop needs reside at 7018 points.
The other side of the coin is a little more interesting!
Should the market (it closed at 6960 points) manage above 7018 points, further recovery to 7046 looks viable. While perhaps sounding useful, the market actually requires better 7081 currently to enter a cycle toward an initial 7195 points. If exceeded, longer term surprises await at a less likely 7382 points.
The reason for mentioning this is fairly straightforward. Should our incompetent politicians somehow manage to produce agreement which the markets look favourably on, only above BLUE shall we dare take is seriously.
For now, we suspect the absence of positive sentiment will provide a further bottom at 6858 points.
