UK 100
ridethepig | Positional Play in UK Equities 📌 UK Equities remain vulnerable with Brexit & Covid in play.
(Similar representation for those tracking the moves in S&P, NQ, DJIA and etc...)
(1) Firstly challenge the view that Rishi's stimulus produces an immediate effect and anything more than a spring mattress; the furlough scheme is incredibly expensive and weighing heavy despite being totally justified.
(2) Recognise the idea that we are in a dead-cat-bounce in Equities broadly and that the UK is particularly exposed to these corrections which is key in positional swings! With this said, I struggle to find positives in the UK and in doing so prevents exposure on the bid. In order to bring interest in UK Equities I would need to see the current lows swept and in the event of a no-deal Brexit then we can see as low as 3579.x.
(3) Keep to the strategy - avoid getting soft hands and closing out too early (out of fear of missing the rally) and try rather to operate with a sense of calm and tranquility.
(4) Aim for total destruction of UK assets in the coming year, sadly the individual mobility of almost every sector will be affected from the political suicide.
(5) Get used to observing the complacency and "sell on rallies"; do not let an emotional retail approach be decisive.
(6) Remember what is important for Positional swings ... we are not attacking, or even defending, but remaining nimble with the capital outflows, rather like meandering water.

FTSE trade planPrice formed a falling channel near the resistance zone. A break higher is a continuation signal to target 6500, previous highs. 2nd target is at 61.8% fib retracement of the March sell-off.
Sentiment is positive as markets prices in the reopening in UK and Europe.

FTSE consolidation endingA triangle price pattern and RSI near 50 shows that daily FTSE is entering the final stages of consolidation. this means we shall soon see the next big candle move from the market.
On the fundamental side things are looking bearish as virus cases spike again and IMF and Central Banks are being very negative regarding the economic recovery.
The contrarian point is that potential stimulus, even more of it, could boost the stocks to keep indices from falling.
In UK Boris Johnson said today that next week the Economy Phase 12 plan will be rolled out. He actually said the same thing in his May's speech, so I am not having much faith here.
Many cities across the globe, including the UK, are starting to close again because of the virus spikes, so markets are very cautious and more on the bearish side.

UK100 Long Term PredictionNot much on the UK100 but if looked at closely the trade is simple.
Bearish push down from 17 Jan 2020, then consolidation all the way to 08 july 2020.
09 July drop
12 july up to consolidate/test "trend line"
24 July drop again!
My prediction is that we may see another push down.
FTSE trade outlookAfter Monday's retracement indices have been ranging with no real momentum.
Resistance of the range is 61.8% and good support zone (green) with 50SMA and 200SMA.
Break of either and close opens new target levels.

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.

FTSE trend line retestFTSE is on the way to retest the broken trend line again.
Potential to looks for reversals on smaller time frame to trade the bounce.
Morning started on a bullish note for equities and US session starts in 30 mins, so volatility will go up.
