Sometimes weird numbers get posted after auctions etc, have noticed it before, I bet the last sessions % change wasn't relative to the ftse

[greenhorn54] 03/1/2017 19:28

FTSE 100 up 0.5% today, but SUK2 down 1.7%. Anyone know why?

The pound is still recovering its loses also :-)



The above link to the FT shows the volume SUK2 as been attracting this past month or so. The clever money already as a possition.

Squeeky bum time in the run up to the US elections.

Just nudged above the AHT today into overbought territory, then dropped 100pts. Cable dropping too. Not short, but reducing longs as I'm not overly confident in the markets.

Around 8K on the UKX would not surprise me, If, and it is a big if,
we get a final unbridled optimism phase in the current bull market.


What strikes me having seen a few cycles roll over is sentiment appears mixed.
There is a plethora of we are on the precipice type articles,
Bull markets usually end in euphoria, may be this one will be different.

A correction before a final strong upwards move is another possibility.

[bamboo2] 25/9/2016 09:23

Cable has formed a small H&S or Falling Wedge. We should see a breakout one way or the other in the next week. Target depends on b/o level and direction.

[bamboo2] 25/9/2016 08:39

Chill, yes cld be INVH&S. Pattern will become clear when we get there!
This chart shows the inverse relationship between the UKX and GBPUSD quite effectively.

[chillwill] 24/9/2016 21:40

Interesting charts bamboo - not sure about the cup and handle, looks more like an inverse H&S to me, but the rest looks reasonable.

[bamboo2] 24/9/2016 20:17

The multi-year Falling Wedge from the end of 2014 has a min target at the ath of the index around 7123. This surely marks a more meaningful potential double top than that of the last few months?

The apex of this falling wedge around w/c Nov 7th. An apex often indicates a turn in the share price

Fundamentally, yield is still being sought, and any further weakness in GBP will push the index higher.

If the index were to reach the target I mention, that opens the door to potential Cup and Handle or Bowl targets approaching 8000

[shavian] 24/9/2016 18:20

We have a possible double top at 6900 in recent weeks, and it just feels a bit toppy with the risks of the US election and interest rises ahead. Usually September is the trick month, but my water tells me that October may be the problem this year. I'm doubling up on SUK2 on Monday, maybe topping up again if the index continues to rise. 7000 just seems unlikely, and I think we need a fibonacci-sized correction

[chillwill] 23/9/2016 11:07

Possibly Mida, Autumn doesn't tend to be strong time for the markets, surprised they're at 6900 tbh; if it got up to 7100-7300 I'd definitely be looking at hedging options like this, short spread bets etc.

[mida5] 23/9/2016 08:15

At 6900, is it time to start looking at these again?

[mad foetus] 30/6/2016 13:18

well dean, in one way you are right, but the FTSE is much more a basket of global companies many of which have no real connection in the UK other than the market listing. RIO or RDSB are classic examples: what happens to China or the strength of the dollar matter far more than the state of the UK economy.

I think a rebalancing of the FTSE to reflect sterling weakness makes sense. My feeling is that it has gone too far, too fast.

[deanroberthunt] 30/6/2016 13:14

market is saying Brexit is irrelevant, business as usual, UK growth and businesses will be as before.....is that right or wrong, that's all you have to answer....right stay LONG or go LONG, wrong stay SHORT or go SHORT.

[aishah] 30/6/2016 13:02

If you take the view that £ will weaken further, it'll fuel the FTSE imo. A rising Oil and Gold price also helps.

[mad foetus] 30/6/2016 12:43

It takes 2 to make a market. I accept all the dollar earnings arguments, but I think the bounce has been too far and too fast. There is a lot of uncertainty out there and a lot of profits that have been made quickly. People will bank them as soon as there is any sign the market is consolidating.

[aishah] 30/6/2016 12:34

FTSE has some big stocks like RDSB and those that earn in $. Looks bullish. Might even go past 6500. dyor

[deanroberthunt] 30/6/2016 12:05

FTSE looks set to fall off a cliff.......false market

[mad foetus] 30/6/2016 11:54

this has to make sense right now

[deanroberthunt] 30/6/2016 11:45

I like 5UKS.

[dt1010] 24/6/2016 04:05

this is definitely going to get interesting

BREEEEXXXXIT!!!!
