#FTSE #Gold <\/span><\/b> \u00a0The concept of animals keeping pets is something which frankly never crossed my mind. But the other day, when doing the dog walk, a crow “cawed” at me with Penny, the Golden Retriever, immediately giving it a couple of barks. Looking at the bird, it had a white patch on one side, very similar to one of our back garden crows called Cheryl. Today, while working outside, a crow flew low overhead, made some crow noises, and Penny responded with a couple of barks. The crow, once again, was the one with a white patch and the question now is fairly simple. Does Penny have a pet crow or, does Cheryl have a pet dog? Or are they just friends, perhaps due to the time Cheryl flew into a telephone line and hurt her wing. Rather than attack, the dog ran to the house barking and I found myself on the phone to the vet for advice. I’d to keep an eye on the bird for a couple of hours and if it didn’t fly off, take it to the vet. During the entire time, the dog remained on the lawn and chose to ignore the crows mate (Russell) which was bouncing around on the lawn. Needless to say, at some point Cheryl flew off but since, the two birds have been regular visitors to the garden to deliberately annoy the dog by patrolling outside the patio doors until we let her out. At that point, they fly onto the wall, communing silently with the dog.<\/span><\/p>\n

Animals can be strange but the purpose of this story is to highlight our frustration with the FTSE and its lack of action. <\/span><\/p>\n

It’s getting to the stage where we feel if we ever decide to dodge watching the UK FTSE for a day, something might actually happen with the market rather than the series of pretend movements we’ve been seeing during September. What’s a bit of a surprise has been the level of financial traffic through London with Thursday producing the 2nd highest financial day of the month.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Our obvious frustration due to the UK index being poised to head upward, yet failing to do so, makes us feel we should routinely be wearing a tinfoil hat as it’s becoming nearly impossible to figure out any logic behind the UK markets intransigence. Perhaps it may be the case the market is waiting until the current UK Prime Minister resigns or maybe the US elects a proper president. Then again, it could just be a delay until we can finally say goodbye to September, traditionally a pretty foul month.<\/span><\/p>\n

If any miracle intends happening, near term above 8306 points should trigger movement to an initial 8345 points with our secondary, if bettered, calculating at 8390 points. If triggered, the tightest stop loss level looks like 8264 points.<\/span><\/p>\n

Our alternate scenario, if everything decides to go wrong, below 8250 looks capable of provoking trouble, giving an initial drop target at 8218 points with our secondary, if broken, working out at 8183 points.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Thankfully, we’re facing a weekend without a Grand Prix as the last one from Singapore made switching to watch yet another repeat of Tipping Point a viable ambition. Something seems to be going very wrong with Formula1, my wife already choosing to avoid watching it and personally I’m getting close. The rot set in, when they cheated Louis Hamilton out of the world championship, arguably for the 2nd time, as many people believe he should be a 9 times world champion, rather than tying with Mike Schumacher at 7 championships.<\/span><\/p>\n

Have a good weekend.<\/span><\/p>\n

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 <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

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.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

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.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
