Index Focus – 13 Nov - 13 November 2015

Equity markets mixed this morning with Wall St. futures again outperforming European peers UK 100 and DAX following yesterday’s afternoon sell-off while US Fed speakers pushed the case for a December rate hike. The quiet morning comes as markets take a breather, though it remains to be seen whether this is consolidation ahead of further declines or the foundation of a relief rally grounded in the US central bank’s confidence.

The UK Index (support holding around 6150) and Dow (pausing around 17450) look to be in the midst of bearish flag patterns while the German DAX has rallied – presumably buoyed by a downwards headed EUR/USD.

Where next?
  1. Will the index rise towards 6450? or;
  2. Will the index fall beneath 6050?

UK 100  taking a break from yesterday’s sell-off and could be set for another leg down if this turns out to be consolidation phase of a bearish flag pattern, also note potential risk-off into the weekend.

US Dow Jones futures’ Nov downtrend  intensified overnight and, like the UK 100 , could be in consolidation phase of a bearish flag pattern. Also potentially vulnerable to risk-off selling into the weekend. Note however the RSI has returned from oversold this morning.
