FTSE 100 still consolidates below last week’s ten-month high
The FTSE 100’s rally to its 7,786 ten-month high, made last week, has been followed by a minor consolidation to Tuesday’s 7,694 low before energy stock gains on the back of the oil price rising to its October highs boosted the index ahead of Thursday’s Bank of England’s (BoE) monetary policy meeting.
Strong resistance remains to be seen between the 7,747 to 7,769 September to December highs ahead of last week’s 7,786 peak.
Support above 7,694 can be spotted at last week’s 7,713 low as well as the 7,710 to 7,702 October and early February highs.
