Today’s charts are FTSE 100, DAX, Dow, Bitcoin, Ethereum, Gold, Astrid, Ajax, Corero, 80 Mile, First Tin, IQE, Nativo, RentGuarantor, Reabold, Smarter Web, Westmount. Major indices are showing more convincing upside than many small caps and cryptos. Rising trend channels, repeated RSI rebounds above neutral 50 and holds above the 50‑day moving average are the common bullish signals. That said, keep an eye on obvious support lines for the inevitable pullbacks and the occasional rug pull designed to shake weak hands. As always, do your own research and treat these as chart-based observations rather than hard recommendations. ### Indices: FTSE 100, DAX and Dow #### FTSE 100 - Near the top of a rising trend channel at **10,180**. A close above that level could push the market toward **10,500** by the end of next month. - Immediate support sits around **10,000**. Beware a shallow rug pull down to around **9,950** that could stop out longs. #### DAX - Clean breakout from the 24,700 range. Minimum near‑term target is **25,800**, achievable by the end of this month. - We are trading above the old October resistance at **24,700**, which now acts as support. #### Dow Jones - At the top of a rising channel from February near **49,500**. - Expect a run toward **50,500** by month end. Best case scenario, assuming the higher channel holds, is up to **51,800** over the next month. - RSI has bounced above neutral 50 — a helpful sign for further upside legs. ### Cryptocurrencies #### Bitcoin - Trading above a rising 50‑day moving average at about **90,400**, which is a bullish leading indicator while it holds. - Selling pressure exists in the **92,000–93,000** zone. Short‑term top of the range near **95,000**; best case target around **106,000** by the end of next month. - Break of the 50‑day down to around **86,000** would risk revisiting October 2024 support. #### Ethereum - Holding well above a rising 50‑day line at roughly **3,042**. - Near‑term upside aims for the 200‑day line near **3,632**. RSI sits slightly above neutral at about **52**. - Risk: a test of the April support line close to **2,900**. Consider a limit order around that level if seeking a lower‑risk entry. ### Gold - Gold has gapped higher and remains in a rising trend channel. Near‑term target is around **4,800**, conditioned on staying above Friday’s intraday high of **4,479**. - If seeking a pullback entry, the 50‑day line near **4,227** is a reasonable place for a limit order. ### Selected UK small caps Focus here is on chart structure: breakout levels, 50‑day and 200‑day moving averages, RSI behaviour and unfilled gaps. Below are the practical levels to watch for each name. #### Astrid - Initial target of **0.12** reached. Next target **0.17** by month end; best case **0.21p** and a move to the 200‑day moving average by the end of next month. - Key condition: stay above **0.12**. #### Ajax - Rising trend channel. Conservative target about **8.5p**, practical target **9p** by month end. - Best case around **11p** into next month if the higher parallel holds. Support near **6p**. #### Corero Network - Good update pushed the shares up close to the top of the channel at roughly **12.75p**. An end‑of‑day close above that opens a fresh leg toward an upper parallel target near **18p** (possible by end of February). - 200‑day moving average sits near **12.1p**; staying above it is important. #### 80 Mile (Requested stock) - Rising channel with an unfilled gap off support — a bullish start. Target up to **1p** by the end of next month while holding above the 50‑day at about **0.57p**. #### First Tin - Already broken out and has met the first target. Next realistic target is around **15.50p** by month end. - Support and trend line sit near **11p**. Multiple RSI rebounds above 50 underline strength. #### IQE - Upgraded outlook after an RNS. Now targeting up to **14p**, possibly by the end of the month, trading above the 200‑day line near **8.2p**. - Pattern suggests a bear trap island reversal: gapped down in September and gapped up now. #### Nativo Resources - Gapped through the 200‑day average of about **0.48p**. A triangle breakout could take it toward **0.8p** by the end of next month. - Maintain above the top of the latest gap at roughly **0.45p**. #### Rentguarantor - Broken out of a falling channel and above the 200‑day at about **25.75p**. Golden cross in place and recent resistance cleared at **32p**. - Target the top of an August triangle nearer **45p**. Keep an eye on **32p** as the key support level. #### Reabold - Strong rebound: initial target **0.06**, next **0.095**, and a higher objective near **0.17** was nearly reached. - Condition: stay above the overnight gap near **0.1175** on an end‑of‑day close. Both the 5‑ and 200‑day lines are rising and the rally began with bullish divergence. #### Smarter Web - Multiple false starts in the past, but recent technicals look better: RSI 50 rebound and a break through the 50‑day line for the first time since July. - RSI and momentum suggest the shares can exceed **55p** while holding above the 50‑day, currently near **43p**. #### Westmount Energy - Targets progressed from **5.5p** to **8p**, and the next objective is around **11p** possibly by month end. - Important to remain on the right side of **7p** on an end‑of‑day close. Multiple RSI 50+ rebounds support the move. ### Practical rules to trade from here 1. **Watch the 50‑day and 200‑day moving averages.** Holds above the 50‑day often precede sustainable rallies; the 200‑day is a longer term structural guide. 2. **Use RSI 50 rebounds as confirmation.** Several of the stronger setups rely on repeated RSI rebounds above neutral 50. 3. **Respect unfilled gaps.** An unfilled gap off support is often bullish. Conversely, a filled gap or a rug pull can be a trap. 4. **Set clear stop levels.** Keep a stop under the most recent structural support to avoid being shaken out by routine volatility. ### Bottom line Big indices look constructive and may lead broader markets higher if trend channels and RSI behaviour hold. Cryptos are mixed but still above key 50‑day lines for now. Gold shows strength with a clear upside path. Among small caps, several names are in meaningful breakouts — but discipline around support, moving averages and gap behaviour remains essential. More updates tomorrow as charts evolve and new levels confirm or fail. **Disclaimer & Declaration of Interest:** The information, investment views, and recommendations in this Zaks Traders Cafe interview are provided for general information purposes only.
