FTSE 100 Index
FTSE outlookPrice failed to break 50% fib level on Friday. Now formed a potential double top there. Break of the neckline opens targets lower.
Break higher opens way to 61.8%.
Bank of England now put negative rates on the table and escalating US-China relations create potential for a bearish week. A short would be better for risk.

#UKX ANALYSIS.. FOLLOW THE PATTERN!.. I think that there will be a long-term correction wave in the global markets on a macro scale, in this context, I think we will observe a pattern in #UKX as I mentioned in the chart.. Markets will become very interesting after 3,4 months, we will wait and see..
What I wrote is about strong possibilities that most investors do not express or expect.. Please do your own due diligence when it comes to trading.. Invest at your own risk..
I wish you all the best..

FTSE 100 - Short Seller's GiftA few days ago I posted on the FTSE 100. I mentioned at that time the (now clear) Bear Flag formation in blue.
We've broken out of that Flag for a few days now and have been in a sideways horizontal channel so far.
I can only see this as gift for anyone who hadn't already been short.
There's a potential 15% downside retracement that I've penciled in: by calculating the vertical height at the start of the Flag formation - and using that distance from the breakout point.
Any contrary views I'm happy to hear.

The FTSE 100 Holding At SupportThe FTSE 100 has been held up by a strong level of support over the past couple of months.
February 2016 created a low at 5499 which was retested in March and April 2020 and going into
May, we want to see momentum to the upside.
Identifying major levels of support in advance is very useful because it will give you an objective
view of the markets, it also prepares you in advance for potential opportunities.
In this case, we will be getting ready for shorting opportunities if price decides to trade below 5499.
If price remains above support and begins to rise then we can prepare for long opportunities.
Price is still below the daily 200 simple moving average (not shown) and we want to see price move
above it, but ultimately we want to see price break above the current all-time high at 7903 before
looking for long opportunities.
For now, we will continue to stand aside from entering positions in stocks while we preserve our capital.
See below for more information on our trading techniques.
As always, keep it simple, keep it Sublime.
