Perhaps it&#8217;s related to the price of Brent Crude as the black stuff looks capable also of some near term price gains where above 44.6 dollars, the immediate target, should potentially signal a cycle commencing toward the 46.8 dollar mark.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>As for the FTSE, with the index managing to close Thursday around the 5980 level, the market closed at the highest level in 14 sessions, officially ticking the box for a &#8220;Higher High&#8221;, thanks to the all important market closure level being comfortably above any intra-day level since September 21st. From our perspective, this is quite a big deal and tends suggest the FTSE shall need some pretty negative news to derail a sense of hope in the days and week ahead.<\/p>\n<p>Near term, things promise to become interesting if the UK index wanders above 6012 points. This calculates as capable of triggering a movement toward an initial 6044 points with secondary, if exceeded, working out at 6095 points. In fact, while we do not expect movement in a single day, longer term 6175 appears to be exerting an attraction for the days ahead. If feeling insanely brave, the tightest stop in this scenario looks like a dreadfully wide 5929 points!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Our reasoning for such a ridiculous stop loss level comes from the optics of the last week as 5929 has made an appearance twice as a day low. Below 5929 suggests the possibility of reversal to an initial 5893 points with secondary, if broken, calculating at 5859 points.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>As the chart inset shows, Thursday was also the first time the FTSE has managed to close a session above the Blue downtrend which commenced, when everything started to go horribly wrong in February.
