Today’s charts are FTSE 100, DAX, Dow, Bitcoin, Ethereum, Gold, Bezant, Cadence, Genedrive, Nuformix, PCI-PAL, Sabien, Zenith.\n\nMarkets have taken a firm turn to the downside over the past week, leaving a number of key indices and individual stocks sitting on important moving averages and trendlines. The immediate question is whether recent bounces are enough to stabilise the picture or whether the next support zones will be tested. Below is a concise, level-focused rundown covering major indices, crypto, gold and a selection of small-cap setups worth watching.\n\nAs always, do your own research and treat these as chart-based observations rather than hard recommendations.\n\n### Market overview\n\nSeveral indices have retraced sharply and are now probing 50-day and 200-day moving averages. A close back above those averages would improve the outlook, but while price remains below crucial November supports, further downside to the nearby channel floors is a live risk. Use the levels below as a guide for risk management rather than precise targets to chase.\n\n**FTSE **\n\nThe index dove toward the 50-day moving average — roughly around **9,502** — and has managed a bounce back above that line. If it holds above the 50-day, the prospects brighten. If not, the likely minimum downside is to the channel floor near **9,415** or the broader **9,400** area. The rising wedge broke its floor near **9,760**, and while the market remains below the initial November support at **9,574**, downside remains the higher-probability path.\n\n**DAX**\n\nThe DAX has shown a rather weaker structure recently. A two-day island reversal in mid-month was followed by a gap down through both the 50-day and 200-day moving averages. Initial support sits at the floor of April’s gap near **22,600**, which could be reached within days. A decisive end-of-day close back above the 200-day near **23,400** would be needed to shift the bias back to the upside. For context, a prior April dip overshot the 200-day by about 1,000 points; currently the index is only about 300 points below that moving average, which suggests a possible turnaround zone around **22,600**.\n\n**Dow**\n\nThe Dow has already lost its 50-day line after a gap down beneath **46,600**. That opens the risk of a retest of October support at **45,300**. Should that level fail, the next major support to watch is the 200-day moving average near **43,800**, which has acted as support in the recent past.\n\n### Cryptocurrencies\n\n**Bitcoin**\n\nBitcoin looks fragile while below the old April/May support around **93,000**. If it cannot recover above that level in the coming days, lower targets include **86,000** (floor of the rising trend channel) and a wider channel low around **76,000**. The path depends on reclaiming that **93,000** zone as resistance becomes support.\n\n**Ethereum**\n\nEthereum has shown relative resilience, finding support around the **3,000** area and an uptrend line from April near **2,950**. A recovery target is the 200-day moving average at approximately **3,482** if buyers remain in control above current support.\n\n### Gold\n\nGold has behaved broadly as expected in a risk-off environment — strengthening while equities fall. The market has bounced above a rising 50-day moving average (around **3,956**) and generated an RSI 50 rebound, a combination that often signals a new leg higher. The upside projection remains as far as **4,600** while the price stays above the 50-day line.\n\n### Selected stocks to watch\n\nWith broader markets weaker, a few smaller-cap names stand out for clear technical setups. Levels below are short-term targets assuming the supporting moving averages and channel floors hold.\n\n- **Bezant** — Bounced off the floor of a rising channel at about **0.07** and closed above the 50-day line. A move back toward **0.10** is plausible while the recovery holds.\n\n- **Cadence** — A bullish exception in current markets. With both the 50- and 200-day moving averages trending higher and an RSI 50-plus rebound, expect momentum to carry the shares toward around **6.75p** while price stays above the recent broken October resistance at **4.3p**.\n\n- **Genedrive** — The market has reacted strongly to expectations of cash inflows, but today’s action suggests “better to travel than arrive” — caution is warranted. Above the channel floor at about **0.9p**, a retest of **1.6p** is possible.\n\n- **Nuformix** — Risen sharply without fresh news, having bounced off a rising 50-day line near **0.25p**. A retest of earlier highs around **0.5p** could come sooner rather than later.\n\n- **PCI-PAL** — Cleared the 200-day moving average and, if momentum continues, has room to reach the top of a rising channel from March, as high as **62p** by the end of next month.\n\n- **Sabien Technology** — The proposed strategic agreement with COF has helped shares break above the 200-day near **8p**. A move toward **13–14p** is feasible after a solid end-of-day close above that 200-day line.\n\n- **Zenith** — Showing signs of a meaningful turn. The shares are back above the 50-day line at **3.44p** and initial resistance sits around **4.1p**, with a best-case upside target near **7.12p** if recent support around **2.75p** holds.\n\n### How to use these levels\n\nFocus on structure and confirmation rather than exact prices. The moving averages (50-day and 200-day) and channel floors mark the levels where market behaviour will most likely change:\n\n- Use the 50-day as an early barometer of short-term momentum.\n\n- Watch for clean end-of-day closes above the 200-day to confirm a return to bullishness.\n\n- If price breaks the channel floors or monthly supports, expect the next zone of support to be tested rather than an immediate reversal.\n\n> “If we remain above the 50-day line actually one would be quite positive about the prospects for the market.”\n\nThat captures the simple trade-off traders face right now: hold above the key moving averages and risk is reduced; fail to hold them and lower channel floors become the primary targets.\n\n**Summary**\n\nOverall, the bias is cautious. Several major indices are testing important technical lines, and a number of smaller stocks are offering clear, tradable setups if their support levels hold. Keep stops tight around the moving averages and channel floors mentioned above. A confirmed close back above the 200-day would change the narrative for the indices, but until then expect pockets of weakness and selective opportunities among smaller caps.\n\nMore updates as price action unfolds and fresh closes give clearer directional signals.\n\n**Disclaimer & Declaration of Interest:**\n\nThe information, investment views, and recommendations in this Zaks Traders Cafe interview are provided for general information purposes only.
