Index Focus – 3 June - 3 June 2015

Equity markets treading water this morning with UK 100 and DAX30 consolidating  mid-downtrend on some good services PMI prints from France, Germany and the Eurozone and in the hope that Greece will be thrown a life line by creditors today. The same drivers conducting Wall St. with the US services PMI and mortgage applications due later today. Gold off this morning after the dollar basket found support with a bullish double bottom formation  likely to weigh further on the yellow metal, which is also suffering from a surprising lack of safe-haven demand given the current European situation. 

Where next?
  1. Will the index rise towards highs of 7070? or;
  2. Will the index fall beneath lows of 6880?

UK 100   trending down since hitting end-May highs 7072 with potential bearish double top formation making a return to 14 May lows 6880 and below a key target for those with short positions. A favourable outcome in Greek bailout negotiations today could turn things around for the bulls.

Where next?
  1. Will the index rise towards highs of 18360? or;
  2. Will the index fall towards lows of 17700?

US Dow Jones is struggling to carry the weight of falling resistance since 19 May as it continues to trend downwards while support at 18000 appears to be offering some respite. Nonetheless, if falling highs continue then we are in bearish descending triangle pattern territory.
