Today’s charts are FTSE 100, DAX, Dow, Bitcoin, Ethereum, Gold, Active Energy, Aura, Celsius, 80 Mile, ECR, eEnergy, Ferrexpo, Iomart, Landore, Mycelx, Neo Energy, Pebble, Strategic Minerals, Tungsten West. Here is a chart-first read across major indices, crypto, gold and a selection of small caps. The emphasis is on trend channels, moving averages, RSI behaviour and the practical support and resistance levels to watch over the coming weeks. As always, do your own research and treat these as chart-based observations rather than hard recommendations. ### Major indices #### FTSE 100 The FTSE has been in a rising trend channel since October and recently respected the psychological **10,000** level as support. A breakout above the February channel top around **10,220** closed the week on a constructive note. Near-term target while the market stays above **10,000** is roughly **10,500–10,600** by the end of next month. Use closes back below the channel floor for caution and reassessment. #### DAX After a bear-trap style reversal and a couple of gap moves, the DAX found support around yesterday’s lows near **24,700**, which was former October resistance. The key guardrail to avoid a deeper pullback is the 50-day line near **24,200**. As long as price holds above the recent low, a reasonable upside target by the end of next month is around **25,700**. A drop and close below the 50-day line is the zone to consider limit orders for a long re-entry. #### Dow Jones The Dow is sitting in a steeper, more tentative rising channel and is testing the February resistance area at **50,000**. A firm close above that would leave the market looking toward the channel top near **52,000**. Conversely, a break below the 50-day line at about **48,000** would be the primary downside risk zone and a place to consider protective limit orders. ### Crypto #### Bitcoin Bitcoin is struggling to clear the falling 50-day moving average and the RSI has slipped below neutral 50. Several failed attempts to reclaim the 50-day line raise the probability of a test of the rising channel floor near **86,000**. If that support fails, the next material level is November support just above **80,000**. Keep the 50-day line and RSI 50 zone as the health checks for bulls. #### Ethereum Ethereum has also closed back below the 50-day line and under the April uptrend line at around **2,980**. Unless there is an end of day close back above that region, a run toward November support near **2,622** is plausible by the end of next month. Only a decisive reclaim of the 50-day line, near **3,077**, would open the path back to around **3,300**. ### Gold Gold put in a powerful upside move, briefly clearing the top of the old November channel at about **4,860**. A best-case scenario target sits near the July resistance line at **5,370**. Key support to hold is the mid-January breakout area around **4,670**. That spike extended price, so there is some rugpull risk; staying above the old resistance turned support keeps the bullish case intact. ### Small – Caps Small caps are where the action and idiosyncratic moves live. Below are chart highlights and practical levels for a number of names showing momentum, breakouts or useful risk points. **Active Energy:**  Positive RSI behaviour with a 50-zone rebound and a rising 50-day, top of the triangle at **0.115p**. Watch for a triangle breakout near the short-term resistance area. Maintain the 50-day as your near-term stop level. **Aura Energy:** Gapped higher into a rising trend channel. The top of the channel around **15p** is the near-term upside objective while the market holds above roughly **10p**. **Celsius Resources:** Strong start to the year with initial targets reached. The next meaningful upside is the old spring 2023 peak near **1.4p**. Holding above the recent gap and broken resistance zone near **0.9p** is important. **80 Mile: **Shares have pushed past earlier channel targets and exceeded an upper parallel. The next objective is around **1.5p**, provided the stock remains above recent broken resistance near **0.7p**. **ECR Minerals: **The chart continues to flash multiple bullish signals, including a rising RSI and supportive moving-average crossovers, suggesting momentum remains firmly positive. Having successfully hit the initial target at 0.32p, the next key upside objective sits at 0.46p. **eEnergy Group: **In a run up to a potential golden cross between the 50 and 200-day lines. Breaking and holding above recent resistance near **5p** opens a retest of May resistance around **6.5–7p**. **Ferrexpo: **A tidy breakout above initial January resistance near **79p**. An end of day close above the recent channel top would project further upside toward around **110p** by the end of next month, assuming positive fundamentals persist. **Iomart Group: **Consolidated at the 50-day moving average and has lifted above it. The falling trend channel top from last autumn sits near **26p** and is a reasonable target for the near term. **Landore Resources: **Recovered from an oversold dive and executed a clean bear-trap move. Staying above the key support near **2.33p** opens a path to fill the recent gap toward roughly **3.66p**. **Mycelx Di: **Has blasted through the top of its rising channel and looks technically strong. Near-term aim is around **50p**, which also corresponds to a gap-fill target. **Neo Energy: **Has met expectations and moved back above critical short-term levels. An end of day close above **1.05p** would see a clear path to about **1.37p**, with **0.9p** as the key short-term support to preserve the bullish case. **Pebble Group: **Looking toward a golden cross over the next week after breaking resistance at **48p**. A logical next target is around **67p**. **Strategic Minerals: **Post-placing reaction has been resilient, with a rising trend channel in place. Above recent resistance near **1.2p**, the chart projects toward approximately **2.5p** over the next month. **Tungsten West: **Enjoying a neat rising trend. While above the short-term support near **15p**, a move toward **20p** looks achievable, perhaps sooner than originally expected. ### Practical checklist for traders - **Use the 50-day moving average and the RSI 50 level** as primary health checks for the major indices and crypto. - **Respect key support areas** (FTSE **10,000**, DAX **24,200–24,700**, Dow **48,000**) as limit order zones for potential long entries. - **For small caps**, keep position sizing sensible and place stop levels under the nearest structural support or recent gap low. - **Watch for moving average crossovers** and filled gaps as confirmation for stronger trend continuation. Charts continue to tell the story. Trends remain the easiest path to trade, but momentum shifts happen quickly, so keep stops and plan entries around the levels above.
