FTSE INTRADAY resistance retest Overall trend remains bullish, supported by rising price action. Recent Movement: Price is in a sideways consolidation phase after a strong uptrend. Key Levels Support: 8760 – Key level from prior consolidation. 8680, then 8640 – Next supports if 8680 breaks. Resistance: 8830 – First upside target. 8930, then 9000 – Further resistance levels on continued strength. Trading Scenarios Bullish Scenario: A pullback to 8760 followed by a bounce could lead to a move towards 8830, then higher to 8930 and 9000. Bearish Scenario: A confirmed break and daily close below 8760 would weaken the bullish case. In that case, expect a potential drop to 8680, then 8640. Conclusion The FTSE remains bullish, but a short-term pullback is possible. A bounce from 8760 would confirm trend strength. Watch 8680 closely — holding above favors bulls; a break below shifts sentiment to bearish.

FTSE 100 Surges Towards Record HighFTSE 100 Surges Towards Record High Today saw the release of new data on the UK labour market. According to official statistics, the number of payrolled employees in the UK fell by 55,000 (0.2%) between March and April 2025. Over the broader period from February to April 2025, the number declined by 78,000 (0.3%). In response to the drop in employment, the UK’s FTSE 100 index (UK 100 on FXOpen) jumped sharply, rising close to the 8,900 mark — near its all-time high reached in early March this year. Market participants likely interpreted the weakening labour market as an additional argument in favour of interest rate cuts by the Bank of England. Such a move would be seen as supportive of the economy and a bullish factor for equities. Technical Analysis of the FTSE 100 (UK 100 on FXOpen) From a technical perspective: → The FTSE 100 continues to trade within an ascending channel (shown in blue); → Today’s bullish momentum broke through the resistance line from below — a level that had previously capped the upward movement within the channel. If the bulls can maintain the price above the 8,860 level, the likelihood increases for a continued uptrend and a potential new all-time high for the FTSE 100 index.

FTSE INTRADAY bullish breakout continuation above 8590The FTSE 100 is showing bullish momentum, supported by an ongoing uptrend. Recent price action suggests a breakout above a period of sideways consolidation, indicating strong buying interest. Key Support: 8590 – This was the previous consolidation zone and now acts as a critical level. If the index pulls back to 8590 and holds, it may resume the uptrend with potential upside targets at: 8810 (near-term resistance) 8850, then 8920 (longer-term targets) Bearish Scenario: A daily close below 8590 would weaken the bullish case and could lead to a decline toward: 8480 (next support) Then 8420 if selling pressure increases Conclusion: The FTSE 100 remains bullish above 8590. Watch for a bounce from this level to confirm further upside. A break below would shift the outlook to bearish in the short term.

UK100G AnalysisLooking at the chart it's clear we are in a current uptrend, but we have quite a significant level just above our current position. If we manage to break this level then I would expect a continuation to the upside and be looking for longs, If we fail to break this level then I expect that we will come back to collect some of these areas of imbalance marked on the chart. These are 1D and 4H levels that have not been mitigated fully and could provide liquidity for the next leg up. We could still come back for some of this liquidity if we break that level but would give a much better indication of the price heading up, a failure to break could see us hit some of the recent lows again. Marked by the demand zone on the chart. I'll be waiting to see what happens as it stands and using my usual ORB strat in my daily trades while I wait for a swing either way.

UK100/FTSE100 - time to short slowlyTeam, let's kill the UK100/FTSE100 last night, we got target hit both in 15 minutes during LIVE trading. Today we are going to short the UK slowly according to the strategy set out Please note: Target 1 will be around 8778-8771 Once it hits, take 70% and bring a stop loss to BE Target 2 - will unload the remaining 30% volume. Please carefully look at the chart. There is a section where if the market goes against you, please double up at that section; that would allow us to make double the profit. However, when it pulls down to our original short, we can take those profits.

FTSE Coils Beneath Key ResistanceThe FTSE 100 finds itself at a crossroads. After an impressive V-shaped recovery from the April lows, the index has spent the past two weeks compressing beneath a well-established resistance zone. Tension is building and we’re left asking the critical question: will this be a great shorting opportunity or the start of a trend leg higher? Is a Breakout or Fakeout Coming? What makes this resistance area particularly significant is its origin. These are the same levels that capped the market back in February and March, just before a sharp sell-off triggered by sweeping tariff policies introduced by Donald Trump. That sell-off reset sentiment sharply, and now, with prices having clawed their way back, the FTSE is once again knocking on the door but hesitating. On the daily chart, the price action has formed a tight sideways range. The 50-day and 200-day moving averages are both marginally rising, but they’re essentially flat, a signal that the market is in pause mode rather than trending. Volume, too, has returned to average levels, offering no strong clues from participation. This isn’t momentum building, it’s pressure tightening. The spring is coiling. Zooming into the hourly chart reveals more detail… The FTSE is forming a wedge or price funnel, with swing highs gradually dropping while swing lows climb. This narrowing formation reflects indecision on both sides and underlines just how tightly wound this market has become. Breakouts from these types of patterns can be significant, but they can also be deceptive. With a major resistance zone in play, traders should be on guard for false moves that lure in breakout chasers only to reverse and trap them. Patience is key. The real tell will be in the confirmation: a decisive daily close beyond the range, accompanied by a surge in volume, could mark the moment when tension finally gives way to trend. Until then, the FTSE remains in limbo coiling, waiting, and keeping traders on edge.

FTSE 100 moving to 10,000 mark !Would this prediction comes true? Honestly, I dunno and why 10,000 and not higher ? This is a psychological number that I think it needs to cross first so that is why I choose it. Again, I have no profit target (this time, my revised strategy) but a SL in place. When the market moves in my favour, I would adjust my SL to breakeven but learning not to take partial profits or even close the position. So, yes, this would be a relatively longer swing trade which I dunno how long it would take to close, hopefully not unless I am stopped out. If you a short selling this index for whatever reasons, I like to hear your views although I will still go LONG. Best of luck to us both.

Elliott Wave Outlook: FTSE to Signal Market Direction SoonThe short-term Elliott Wave outlook for FTSE indicates that wave II concluded at 7560.5. This marked the start of an upward movement in wave III. Wave III is unfolding as a five-wave impulse structure, characterized by a series of higher highs and higher lows. From the wave II low, wave 1 advanced to 8021.77, followed by a pullback in wave 2 to 7599.56. The Index then resumed its upward trajectory in wave 3, with its internal subdivisions further defining the bullish momentum. Within wave 3, wave ((i)) peaked at 8166.53, followed by a corrective wave ((ii)) that found support at 7862.72. The subsequent rally in wave ((iii)) reached 8798.46, and a minor pullback in wave ((iv)) ended at 8604.8. The Index is now poised to continue its upward trend, likely completing the five-wave rally that began from the April 7 wave II low. Once this rally concludes, a larger corrective pullback is anticipated. The pullback is potentially unfolding in 3, 7, or 11 swings to correct the prior advance. Currently, the Index is approaching a critical level, nearing a break above the previous wave I peak of 8908.82, recorded on March 4, 2025. A decisive move above this level would confirm that wave II is firmly in place, ruling out the possibility of a double correction. Such a breakout would provide strong confirmation of the bullish market direction, signaling continued upward momentum in the near term.
