Our free FTSE for FRIDAY (FTSE:UKX)

#FTSE #SP500

It’s easy to wonder if internet streaming services are feeling a little pain currently, due to the level of real world entertainment presently available. From the ongoing lurches into a banking crisis, stock markets being all over the place, or if in Scotland, the discovery their empress was actually a false construct, surviving only on the achievements on who went before her.

Obviously, living in Argyll, we’re closer to the unseemly Scottish shambles but it’s already causing popcorn shortages everywhere.

As for the markets, we shall not be surprised if Friday ends with some reversals, if only due to concern over potential bad news breaking over the weekend. While the Swiss Central Bank has “saved” Credit Suisse and First Republic Bank saved by a coalition of major banks, considerable effort is obviously going in to inhibit a domino effect in the banking sector. However, will we indeed see many traders opting to close positions on Friday rather than risk a wipe-out on Monday, due to a new cause for panic.

 

We’ve some doubts for Friday as it feels like the FTSE may again experience some recovery.

Closing Thursday at 7410 points, it need only lurch above 7460 to hopefully trigger recovery to 7522 points with secondary, if bettered, a more encouraging 7584 points. This secondary ambition is quite a big deal, giving the FTSE the impetus to potentially regain the Blue downtrend and point at happy days ahead. Perhaps Louis Hamilton shall even do well in the Saudi Formula 1 race on Sunday, cementing the feel good factor! The required stop loss is rather wide, calculating at 7377 points.

If everything intends go wrong, below 7330 points looks more catastrophic than putting Nicola Sturgeon in charge of anything, as this risks triggering reversal to 7267 points with secondary, if broken, at 7204 points and a limp bounce, maybe…

Have a good weekend.

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.
