FTSE 100 Technical Analysis: Big Inflection Point Created at Support

The FTSE 100 has recently fallen with a lot of momentum, but that came to a pause yesterday with a powerful reversal candle forming. The forming of the candle is one thing, but where it occurred at is another.

There is strong confluent support around 6870/6780, created by the rising trend-line off the March 2020 low and several intermediate-term turning points created since a peak created in January 2021. There were three instances of a low within a 10 handle range of one another.

These were carved out in May, July, and September last year. The multiple turning points on this horizontal line give it a lot of weight as a support level the market should respect. Couple it with a trend-line and proper price action, and you have a line-in-the-sand.

Not saying it will hold for a long time, as we have seen given the nature of this market cycle’s catalyst – a highly unpredictable situation – that exhaustion moves can become even more exhausted. But for now as long as Monday’s low at 6787 holds on a closing basis, then the outlook is neutral to bullish.

We may only see a bounce ensue before more selling occurs, hard to say at this juncture how much the market can rally. If we see a close develop below yesterday’s low, then we will need to respect the fact that a big level of support was broken and run with a bearish bias.

    • Memecoins particularly on Solana and Ton ecosystem have kept the market buzzing for a significant part of the year as traders continue to tilt towards gaining instant and massive gains from trading memecoins against the long term gains they could amass from sustainable projects with real life applications. Interestingly the opportunities this exciting market niche holds keep rolling in with exchanges doing their bit to make it worthwhile for the passionate meme traders. So if you trade top memes like DOGE, PEPE, NEIROCTO, TURBO, WIF, SHIB, and GOAT, Bitget memecoin carnival could be of interest to you. The event slated to run from Nov 4 – Nov 18 2024 promises USDT rewards for meme traders who join, check in daily, and complete simple tasks. Evidently exchanges generate insane trading volumes from the buzzing memecoin community, rewarding meme traders through this event is a win for everyone.
    • Could it be the bustling ecosystem of multi-chain games that makes Arcadia unique? Someone recently tweete “One of the most anticipated games on the $Eth network, Legend of Arcadia, is set to launch its token, $ARCA, on various CEX exchanges” so I wonder if this strategic game could increase gameFi adoption. Legend of Arcadia is not just another card game but a strategic battleground where players collect, raise, and battle with toy-like humanoid creatures, reminiscent of the heroes from classic fantasy RPGs. The game draws inspiration from titles like Hero Wars and AFK Arena, offering a real-time battle system where strategy plays a pivotal role. When we look at other leading games in the Web3 space, like Axie Infinity or Gods Unchained, Legend of Arcadia holds its own by offering a more accessible entry point with its free-to-play model while still maintaining depth through strategic gameplay and economic incentives. It's a game that doesn't just cater to hardcore blockchain gamers but invites casual players into the fold, potentially broadening the appeal of blockchain gaming but why the recent traction to the project? Is obvious to see hype, expectations and speculation toward a project as it approaches listing date. I wonder if this is responsible for the recent traction toward Legend of Arcadia but with poolx and candybomb on Bitget and some exchange that have announced listing, we should expect more exposure for this project
