We wonder if we&#8217;re in a &#8220;What happens within CoronaVirus stays within CoronaVirus&#8221; phase of market misbehaviour. Of course, if you believe such a trite saying shall prove to be the case in the long term, you will be wrong.<\/p>\n<p>Without exception, if a market makes an irrational, quickly corrected, movement, it becomes certain the move shall be factored in when future price calculations take effect. While we may pretend &#8216;The CoronaVirus Blip&#8217; was just one of these things, in the future when software is collating market swings in the computation of movement potentials, no-one is in the business of writing software and telling the computer to just ignore that anomaly.<\/p>\n<p>We can already see this nonsense with closing prices on the FTSE. If the FTSE now closes a session below 4,993 points, we are pretty certain it shall lose a further 1,000 points.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>However, for Friday, things do not look quite as grim.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Near term, it appears FTSE (the market, NOT after-hours futures) only requires trade above 5,850 to calculate the potential of further movement toward 5,920 points. If exceeded, our secondary target level works out at 5,963 points.<\/p>\n<p>A couple of things worth remembering. Firstly, if a rise triggers, there&#8217;s a weird chance of some hesitation at 5,887 points. This was virtually the last high back on April 14th, so perhaps this is why we&#8217;ve a warning popping up on our software. Secondly, we&#8217;ve proposed an overall rise of 113 points and we don&#8217;t expect a Friday to prove so forthcoming. Fridays are rarely generous.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>For fans of &#8220;headless chicken&#8221; days on the market, we shall now be concerned if the FTSE wanders below 5,780 as a reversal to 5,732 looks possible. If broken, secondary comes in at 5,670 points.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Have a good weekend and remember, avoid family. It freaks them out, when they stay in the same house as you.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: medium;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.trendsandtargets.com\/img\/ukx230420.jpg\" alt=\"Hey, chart goes here\" width=\"593\" height=\"383\" border=\"0\" \/><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>FUTURES<\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Time Issued<\/td>\n<td>Market<\/td>\n<td>Price At Issue<\/td>\n<td>Short Entry<\/td>\n<td>Fast Exit<\/td>\n<td>Slow Exit<\/td>\n<td>Stop<\/td>\n<td>Long Entry<\/td>\n<td>Fast Exit<\/td>\n<td>Slow Exit<\/td>\n<td>Stop<\/td>\n<td>Prior<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>9:37:53PM<\/td>\n<td>BRENT<\/td>\n<td>24.4<\/td>\n<td>23.5<\/td>\n<td>23.005<\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td>25.15<\/td>\n<td>26.2<\/td>\n<td>26.7075<\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td>24<\/td>\n<td>&#8216;cess<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>9:39:54PM<\/td>\n<td>GOLD<\/td>\n<td>1732.28<\/td>\n<td>1706<\/td>\n<td>1695.5<\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td>1720<\/td>\n<td>1739<\/td>\n<td>1746<\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td>1719<\/td>\n<td>&#8216;cess<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>9:41:42PM<\/td>\n<td>FTSE<\/td>\n<td>5763.73<\/td>\n<td>5730<\/td>\n<td>5712<\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td>5786<\/td>\n<td>5843<\/td>\n<td>5866<\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td>5779<\/td>\n<td>&#8216;cess<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>9:45:38PM<\/td>\n<td>FRANCE<\/td>\n<td>4397.7<\/td>\n<td>4391<\/td>\n<td>4364.5<\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td>4455<\/td>\n<td>4477<\/td>\n<td>4510.5<\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td>4423<\/td>\n<td>Success<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>9:49:40PM<\/td>\n<td>GERMANY<\/td>\n<td>10375<\/td>\n<td>10318<\/td>\n<td>10261<\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td>10498<\/td>\n<td>10612<\/td>\n<td>10660<\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td>10412<\/td>\n<td>Success<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>9:52:19PM<\/td>\n<td>US500<\/td>\n<td>2795.27<\/td>\n<td>2781<\/td>\n<td>2768.5<\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td>2815<\/td>\n<td>2847<\/td>\n<td>2865<\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td>2807<\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>10:15:10PM<\/td>\n<td>DOW<\/td>\n<td>23486<\/td>\n<td>23368<\/td>\n<td>23258.5<\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td>23671<\/td>\n<td>23890<\/td>\n<td>23929.5<\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td>23589<\/td>\n<td>Success<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>10:17:48PM<\/td>\n<td>NASDAQ<\/td>\n<td>8614<\/td>\n<td>8595<\/td>\n<td>8535.5<\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td>8688<\/td>\n<td>8799<\/td>\n<td>8816.5<\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td>8674<\/td>\n<td>&#8216;cess<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>10:20:23PM<\/td>\n<td>JAPAN<\/td>\n<td>19362<\/td>\n<td>19315<\/td>\n<td>19220<\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td>19427<\/td>\n<td>19646<\/td>\n<td>19704<\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td>19390<\/td>\n<td>Success<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h5>23\/04\/2020 FTSE Closed at 5826 points.
