UK 100 Index Focus – 7 May - 7 May 2014

Major Support & Resistance (pivot points – explained):

Pivot Point: 6802; Support 1, 2 & 3: 6770, 6751, 6719; Resistance 1, 2 & 3: 6821, 6853, 6873

Equities have fallen back from their highs as we had feared with OECD cutting global growth estimates, increasing chance of civil war in Ukraine, corporate disappointments from the likes of Twitter, an abundance of disappointing data overnight – all coinciding with a general loss of momentum after a  5.2% rally. Note Alibaba’s filing of what could be the biggest IPO in history. Good or bad timing with tech jitters creeping back in?

Support looks to have kicked in at 6770 (May horizontal, April rising) which could help with a bounce, but we still wonder whether 6720/6740 is a more realistic destination for investors to take stock of market happenings and direction. Daily momentum still in decline and 3-month hourly RSI not reached oversold yet.
