UK 100 Index Focus – 12 Aug

Major Support & Resistance (pivot points – explained):

Pivot: 6573; Support: 6541, 6494, 6459; Resistance: 6623, 6658, 6705

After breaking above 6560 late last week the index has cleared the falling highs from early in the month which we had been looking for to reduce the chances of the breakout being a bull-trap6610 has proved a hurdle since late on Friday although there looks to be some support around 6585. Is this small sideways channel another consolidatory shift before a continued uptrend to 6700?

After all the China data of last week, renewing bullishness on both growth and perceived stimulus wriggle room for Beijing, Japan has disappointed this morning on the GDP front although weakness is  being kept in check, potentially from lower summer volumes. Focus back to Europe this week with a raft of data to swing sentiment. Can we see more positive prints after the PMIs of late?
