FTSE support retest at 9190The FTSE remains in a bullish trend, with recent price action showing signs of a corrective pullback within the broader uptrend.
Support Zone: 9190 – a key level from previous consolidation. Price is currently testing or approaching this level.
A bullish rebound from 9190 would confirm ongoing upside momentum, with potential targets at:
9290 – initial resistance
9340 – psychological and structural level
9420 – extended resistance on the longer-term chart
Bearish Scenario:
A confirmed break and daily close below 9190 would weaken the bullish outlook and suggest deeper downside risk toward:
9150 – minor support
9110 – stronger support and potential demand zone
Outlook:
Bullish bias remains intact while the FTSE holds above 9190. A sustained break below this level could shift momentum to the downside in the short term.

FTSE 100 uptrend remains intactThe FTSE 100 continues to trade above its multi-month rising trendline. The price has extended its recovery from the 9100 September low, rising above to a peak of 9340 last week, just shy of the 9360 record high.
Buyers will need to extend gains above 9360 to head towards fresh record highs. 9500 is a logical next target
Support is seen at 9150, the 50 SMA, and 9100, the August low. A break below 8880 negates the longer-term uptrend.

Can Britain's Stock Market Survive Its Own Streets?The FTSE 100's recent 10.9% year-to-date outperformance against the S&P 500's 8.8% return masks deeper structural vulnerabilities that threaten the UK market's long-term viability. While this temporary surge appears to be driven by investor rotation away from overvalued US tech stocks toward traditional UK sectors, it obscures decades of underperformance: the FTSE 100 has delivered just 5.0% annualized returns over the past decade, compared to the S&P 500's 13.2%. The index's heavy weighting toward finance, energy, and mining, combined with minimal exposure to high-growth technology firms, has left it fundamentally misaligned with the modern economy's drivers of growth.
The UK's economic landscape presents mounting challenges that extend beyond market composition. Inflation rose to 3.8% in July, surpassing forecasts and increasing the likelihood of sustained high interest rates that could dampen economic activity. Government deficits reached £20.7 billion in June, raising concerns about fiscal sustainability, while policy uncertainty under the new Labour government creates additional investor hesitation. Geopolitical instability has shifted risk appetite for 61% of UK institutional investors, with half adopting more defensive strategies in response to global tensions.
Most significantly, civil unrest has emerged as a quantifiable economic threat that directly impacts business operations and market stability. Far-right mobilisation and anti-immigration demonstrations have resulted in violent clashes across UK cities, with over a quarter of UK businesses affected by civil unrest in 2024. The riots following the Southport stabbing incident alone generated an estimated £250 million in insured losses, with nearly half of the affected businesses forced to close premises and 44% reporting property damage. Business leaders now view civil unrest as a greater risk than terrorism, requiring increased security measures and insurance coverage that erode profitability.
The FTSE 100's future hinges on its ability to evolve beyond its traditional sectoral composition while navigating an increasingly volatile domestic environment where political violence has become a material business risk. The index's apparent resilience masks fundamental weaknesses that, combined with the rising costs of social and political instability, threaten to undermine long-term investor confidence and economic growth. Without significant structural adaptation and effective management of civil disorder risks, the UK's benchmark index faces an uncertain trajectory in an era where street-level violence translates directly into boardroom concerns.
Rise and dip as bear Tuesday kicks in later30-Minute Chart Observations
Price is currently moving sideways around 9,274–9,278 (pivot level).
Very tight consolidation overnight with small candles (low volatility).
EMA cluster (10, 25, 200) is flat and converging — this often signals a larger directional move is coming.
Pivot points:
R1 = 9,297
R2 = 9,316
R3 = 9,334
S1 = 9,260
S2 = 9,242
S3 = 9,223
Daily Plan Adjustments with 30-Min View
Bullish Breakout (Intraday Long)
If FTSE clears 9,280–9,285 with volume (breakout of consolidation), target 9,297 (R1) first, then 9,316 (R2).
Intraday stop: below 9,265 (S1 / EMA cluster support).
This aligns with the daily bullish channel continuation.
Range Play (Mean Reversion)
As long as FTSE trades between 9,260 and 9,285, it’s just chop.
Scalpers can fade moves: buy near 9,260 support, sell near 9,285 resistance.
But this range is tight — better to wait for breakout.
Bearish Breakdown (Intraday Short)
If FTSE loses 9,260 with momentum, expect 9,242 (S2) test.
Stronger bearish momentum could target 9,223 (S3).
Stop for shorts: above 9,280 (back into range).
Summary
Bias unchanged: Daily still favors bullish above 9,260, bearish if we lose that.
Intraday twist: Market is compressing on the 30-min — watch for breakout from 9,260–9,285 box.
Best setup: Wait for a break of this narrow range → then align trades with daily pivot levels.
FTSE 100 coiling ahead of potential breakoutThe FTSE remains in consolidation mode for now, but the underlying trend is still arguably bullish. The index was holding inside a consolidation pattern, coiling before a potentially large breakout. 9270 is the level to watch on the upside - a break above this could pave the way for fresh gains towards the all-time high of 9360. Support remains at 9190/1 area, lost that then the focus shifts to 9127.
By Fawad Razaqzada, market analyst with FOREX.com
Pivot at 9225 is key today - 9290 above 9160 below🔎 Chart Observations
Price Action
FTSE 100 is trading around 9212.
The recent move was a sharp drop yesterday, followed by sideways consolidation.
Candles are small and clustering just under the pivot line → market indecision.
Moving Averages
EMA(10) and EMA(25) are below the EMA(200) → bearish bias still intact.
Short-term EMAs are trying to flatten out, hinting at a possible pause or rebound.
Pivot Levels
Pivot (P): 9228 (currently slightly below it).
R1: 9249
R2: 9293
S1: 9179
S2: 9153
S3: 9109
These levels will likely guide intraday reversals.
RSI Divergence
Shows a small bullish divergence earlier → supports the idea of at least a rebound attempt.
📊 Trading Scenarios for Today
Bullish Case (Rebound Attempt)
If FTSE 100 breaks and holds above Pivot (9228):
First target: R1 (9249)
If momentum builds, next: R2 (9293)
Stop-loss idea: below S1 (9179)
Bearish Case (Continuation of Downtrend)
If price fails at pivot and drops under S1 (9179):
Next target: S2 (9153)
Extended bearish target: S3 (9109)
Stop-loss idea: above Pivot (9228)
Neutral/Range-Bound
If FTSE stays between 9228 (pivot) and 9179 (S1), expect choppy trading → best avoided unless scalping.
⚠️ Things to Watch
Today’s early London session open will confirm whether bulls can reclaim pivot or bears push lower.
Keep an eye on U.S. futures and macro data releases, as they will drive FTSE sentiment.
✅ Summary Trading Idea:
Watch 9228 pivot closely — above it, look for a rebound toward 9249/9293.
If it rejects pivot and falls under 9179, momentum likely resumes downward toward 9153–9109.

Short the rallies... buy the rumour sell the news on FOMC day!1. Short-Term (Intraday, 30-min chart)
Trend: Still bearish — price is trading below the 200 EMA (orange) and 25 EMA (blue). Multiple EMAs are aligned downward, showing short-term weakness.
Support:
Immediate: 9,165 (S1)
Next: 9,130 (S2)
Stronger: 9,070 (S3)
Resistance:
Pivot: 9,226
Stronger: 9,261 (R1)
Idea:
If price fails to reclaim the pivot (9,226) and gets rejected near EMA clusters, it favours a short back toward S1/S2.
A breakout above 9,226–9,261 zone with strong volume could shift bias to a quick long scalp targeting 9,300.
2. Medium-Term (Daily chart)
Trend: Mixed but leaning bearish — yesterday produced a strong red candle back under the 10 & 25 EMA. RSI (10) has rolled over at ~46, showing fading momentum.
Support:
Daily S1: 9,165
Trendline support: around 9,150–9,130
Resistance:
Pivot: 9,226
R1: 9,261
Idea:
If the index holds above 9,165 and rebounds, bulls may attempt another push into the 9,226–9,261 zone.
A close below 9,165 would confirm further downside toward 9,070–9,100.
FTSE 100 Wave Analysis – 16 September 2025- FTSE 100 reversed from resistance zone
- Likely to fall to support level 9090.00
FTSE 100 index recently reversed down from the resistance zone between the key resistance level 9330,00 (which stopped the previous wave (3) in the middle of August, as can be seen below) and the upper daily Bollinger Band.
The downward reversal from this resistance zone started the active short-term correction 2.
FTSE 100 index can be expected to fall to the next support level 9090.00, the target for the completion of the wave 2 (low of the previous correction (4)).
