Our famed FTSE for Friday

#FTSE_Futures FTSE:UKX January has certainly proved interesting, the UK market experiencing an unheard of 350 point range. Unheard of, unless you take the time to examine 2021 when this was matched 6 times! Numerically, it wasn’t such a big deal but despite media behaving like a circle of feral school kids yelling “fight, fight” over the Russia thing, the FTSE felt quite vibrant.

We believe this a positive attitude relates to the UK index finally exceeding Blue on the chart, along with finally bettering the high pre-Covid, as both signals tended boost other markets worldwide, when they exceeded these levels in 2020 and 2021. It’s already the case the Russia reversal of just a week ago has corrected, the market feeling like “oops, we over-reacted”, giving an interesting suggestion we should anticipate 8121 points as the level at which we should next anticipate real FTSE volatility.

 

From a near term perspective, it appears above 7598 points should next make an attempt at 7638 next with secondary, if bettered, at 7700 points. If triggered, the tightest stop is apparently quite wide at 7540 points.

Our alternate reversal scenario requires the UK to stumble below 7492 points. Such a triggering event risks reversals to 7452 with secondary, if broken, at 7402 points. At present, the FTSE needs break below Blue (7370 points) to justify hysterics as some quite nasty reversals could be anticipated thereafter. Visually, it appears unlikely.

 

Have a good weekend. 52 days until the next Grand Prix…

Our commentary is in two sections. Immediately below are today’s updated comments. If our commentary remains valid, the share can be found in the bottom section which has a RED heading. Hopefully, this will mean you no longer need to flip back through previous reports. HYPERLINKS DISABLED IN THIS VERSION

Please remember, all prices are mid-price (halfway between the Buy and Sell). When we refer to a price CLOSING above a specific level, we are viewing the point where we can regard a trend as changing. Otherwise, we are simply speculating on near term trading targets. Our website is www.trendsandtargets.com.

UPDATE. We often give an initial and a secondary price. If the initial is exceeded, we still expect it to fall back but the next time the initial is bettered, the price should continue to the secondary. The converse it true with price drops.
