FTSE Forecast Update April 2021

FTSE update Month End April 2021 1

The FTSE failed to hit our short entry points in April. On a positive note this means no loss making positions were established!

Going into May and June we are not as positive over the FTSE reaching a significant high in late June/ early July and which is reinforced by the lack of upwards movement on April 30th – despite the significant fall in GBPUSD.

Lack of upwards movement in FTSE 100 on April 30 gives cause for concern

As a result there is potential that a top is now in place – we don’t know this – it’s just a potential which we must be mindful of if going long on this index.

Potential top developed in April on the FTSE 100

We are now watching the FTSE 100 closely over the next few weeks to see if/ and where it hits our next long entry zone as this will have a significant bearing for setting up short positions which should yield strong gains in July and August.

We have identified 4 potential resistance lines (5 if you count the long term trend) throughout June which will be useful in setting up short positions. At this stage we have no idea how things will play out but we are expecting GBPUSD strength into the same period which would certainly limit any upside.
