1-hr UK100: My Personal Favorite is Bullish! The UK’s leading stock market index recently saw a 400-point decline but has since regained its bullish momentum. A Golden Cross, where the 20 MA moves above the 60 MA, confirmed a strong buy signal. The surge in buying volumes since late last week suggests increased interest from investors attracted by the index's lower valuation. While the broader uptrend remains intact, a short-term correction is anticipated before the rally resumes. A pullback below the 23% Fibonacci retracement level and closer to the 8200 area, aligning with the critical 38% Fib retracement, could provide a more attractive entry point for buyers. This zone offers an opportunity for those seeking to capitalize on the prevailing bullish momentum with an improved risk-to-reward ratio. The combination of technical signals and recent price action suggests the potential for continued upward movement following any temporary dip.

FTSE 100: A Trip Through the Timeframes The FTSE 100 finds itself at a key crossroads, trading at a major level of support that resonates across multiple timeframes. For traders and investors alike, this is one of those moments where the charts tell a story worth reading - let’s dive in and unpack the patterns shaping the FTSE’s current setup. Weekly Timeframe The weekly timeframe is an excellent starting point for any multi-timeframe analysis, offering a macro perspective on the FTSE 100. Here, the index remains in a long-term uptrend but is currently consolidating. Recent price action has brought the market back to a pivotal zone: the broken 2023 highs. These highs, which transitioned into support during the summer pullback, are now being tested once again. This area is a litmus test for the FTSE’s resilience. If support holds, it could pave the way for another leg higher in the long-term trend. However, a breakdown could signal a deeper retracement and a potential shift in sentiment. FTSE 100 Weekly Candle Chart Daily Timeframe Zooming into the daily chart, the nuances of the support zone come into sharper focus. The index’s response to the U.S. election was dramatic, creating a long-tailed bearish fakeout candle—a false breakout that reversed sharply on elevated volume. This move dragged the FTSE below its 200-day moving average for the first time since February, adding to bearish concerns. FTSE 100 Daily Candle Chart Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future results Four-Hour Timeframe On the four-hour chart, the first signs of optimism emerge. At the support zone, the market has carved out a small, inverted head and shoulders pattern—a classic reversal structure often signalling the end of a downtrend. This pattern indicates that buyers are starting to gain confidence, even if only tentatively. FTSE 100 Four-Hour Candle Chart Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future results Hourly Timeframe Finally, the hourly chart brings us to the granular details of the ongoing battle. As the new trading week kicks off, the FTSE is tightly compressed between a minor ascending trendline and a horizontal resistance level. This tug-of-war reflects the intensity of the market’s indecision near the key support zone visible across all timeframes. This compression phase typically precedes a breakout. If the FTSE manages to clear the resistance, it could act as the catalyst for a broader recovery, with ripple effects across higher timeframes. Conversely, a breakdown below the ascending trendline might reignite selling pressure, threatening the structural support zone. How this small hourly pattern resolves will likely set the tone for the week ahead and potentially influence the FTSE’s trajectory on higher timeframes.

1-hr FTSE100: Traders are Selling Off Their UK StocksThe FTSE100 index remains firmly in a downtrend, highlighted by several Death Cross patterns appearing since last week. This bearish signal, where the 20-period moving average dips below the 60-period moving average, indicates strong selling pressure and an overall negative market sentiment. However, the current price level is relatively low, which may tempt short-term buyers seeking potential bargains. If this buying interest materializes, it could trigger a pullback, lifting the index to 8,064 (23% Fibonacci retracement) or potentially even higher to 8,107 (38% Fibonacci level). These elevated resistance levels could then serve as optimal entry points for traders looking to rejoin the broader downtrend through new short positions.

UK100 Approaching Key Support Zone for Potential ReversalHello, CAPITALCOM:UK100 has encountered resistance at the 1M pivot point, leading to further downside movement. Currently, the price is approaching a strong support level at 7942.9445, which has historically held and may present a challenge. The zone between 7954.7045 and 7942.9445 is a potential reversal area, where the price could turn back upward. However, if it establishes itself below this range, further downside could ensue. Confidence is high that this could mark the definitive low before an upward trend resumes, though the opposite scenario cannot be ruled out. Time and confirmation will provide clarity. No Nonsense.

Drop Goes The FTSE - Short Side Case Coming In.The FTSE has shown so much sideways movement in and around highs historically, as investor wonder whether there is a bull or bear case. Initial growth stats looked reasonable, but the Labour Govt's budget has ripped into the hopes of business in the UK. Higher taxes will mean lower business revenues, and all sorts of Economic headwinds to follow. I am still holding shorts lower and accumulating swaps. Any re-push higher and I will re-add shorts.
