Thursday 7 May 2026
Data: Close 6 May 2026 | UKX: 10,438.66 (+2.15%) | Brent: ~$101 | Futures: mixed reads — see note below



MARKET OVERVIEW

The FTSE 100 staged a powerful relief rally on Wednesday 6 May, finishing up 219 points (+2.15%) at 10,438.66, bouncing hard off Tuesday's 10,222 close. The dominant catalyst was renewed optimism around a US-Iran framework deal that pulled Brent crude back from ~$110 toward the $101–$102 area. That single oil move re-priced sentiment across the index: miners, banks, insurers, travel/leisure and housebuilders all rallied while the oil majors absorbed the move.

Pan-European confirmed the risk-on tone: DAX +2.12%, CAC 40 +2.94%, Euro Stoxx 50 +2.68%.

Pre-market for today: Live futures data is showing inconsistent reads across providers (one feed showing 10,642, another 10,379), so I'm not committing to a number. Tone is constructive but the index has just done a +2% session and may need to digest. Treat 10,438 as the line in the sand — above and the rotation continues, below and we're back in chop.

Macro: UK CPI 3.3% in March (up from 3.0%), BoE on cautious hold. No Tier-1 UK data today. Move will be driven by oil/Iran headlines and US sympathy.



NOTABLE CHANGES — DAY OVER DAY

The biggest signal-shifts since Tuesday's close. These names demand attention:

BULLISH
- PRU — RSI surged +20.0 pts to 68.1, crossed ABOVE EMA20 + EMA50, MACD bullish cross, +6.5%, week +6.59%
- RR. — RSI +9.4 to 58.9, crossed ABOVE EMA50, MACD bullish cross, +8.5% session (biggest single name move), week +17.49%
- HSBA — RSI +12.5 to 55.4, crossed ABOVE EMA20 + EMA50, +5.4% rebound after Tuesday's earnings drop
- DGE — RSI surged +13.8 to 65.6, crossed ABOVE EMA50 and POC, +5.7%, 4-day up streak, week +8.13%
- ANTO — RSI +9.2 to 56.4, crossed ABOVE EMA20 + EMA50 + POC, +7.2%, week +11.2%
- AAL — RSI +10.3 to 64.0, MACD bullish cross, +7.0% to within 1.5% of 52w high
- LLOY / BARC / NWG / STAN — Banks all crossed above EMA20 (most above EMA50), RSI surges +9 to +11 pts, sessions +4.4% to +5.2% — sector-wide flip
- RIO — RSI +10 to 67.6, MACD bullish cross, +4.5%, closed 0.5% from 52w high

BEARISH
- SHEL — Crossed BELOW EMA50 AND BELOW POC, -3.1%, RSI dropped 7.6 — the biggest structural breakdown today
- LSEG — RSI dropped 9.6 pts to 50.1, crossed BELOW EMA20

What's happening: Tuesday's HSBC-led panic flipped overnight into textbook risk-on rotation. The crossings above EMA20/50 across banks and miners on the same session is a sector-wide thesis change, not noise. Energy is the funding source.



SECTOR HEATMAP

STRONG (sector avg %change)
- Industrials (RR.): +8.46%
- Banks (5 stocks): +5.00% — sector-wide flip up
- Mining (4 stocks): +4.98% — all four bull, RIO at hi52
- Travel/Leisure (CPG): +3.45% — Iran-deal beneficiary
- Insurance (4): +2.71% — PRU and ADM leading

NEUTRAL / MIXED
- Consumer Staples (5): +2.63% — DGE standout, RKT still bear
- Telecom (VOD): +1.81%
- Tobacco (2): +1.60% — BATS bull, IMB lag
- Defence (BAE): +0.95% — bear (below 20/50), losing leadership

WEAK
- Pharma (3): +0.90% but average RSI 33.0 — sector OS, contrarian basket forming
- Tech/Media (5): -0.44% — REL just broke below EMA20
- Energy (SHEL, BP): -2.90% — funding source for the rotation

The story: classic risk-on rotation. Banks + miners + insurers + travel + cyclicals up; energy + defensives (defence, pharma) down. Pharma at 33 average RSI is becoming an interesting OS contrarian basket, not a sell.

INTRADAY SETUPS — THU 7 MAY

RIO — Camarilla breakout long
Trigger: Hold above Cam R1 (7729) on first hour · Entry: 7730-7735 · Stop: 7691 · T1: 7791 · T2: 7822
Why: Closed at hi52 area · RSI 67.6 has room · mining strong

PRU — Cam range fade-then-flip
Setup A — fade short at Cam R3 1190 with stop 1207, target pivot 1155
Setup B — long if Cam R4 1207 breaks, target classic R2 1217 / 52w hi 1238
Why: RSI 68.1 = fading early upside is sane; breakout would confirm regime change

Short trigger: Break Cam S3 (542) — stop 553, target 521 → 504
Why: Decision day for BP — different from SHEL (EMA50 still supportive)

LLOY — Banks pivot continuation long
Entry: 9890-9905 (Cam S1/pivot) · Stop: 9847 · T1: 9936 · T2: 10018 (POC magnet) · T3: 10082
Why: RSI 50.8 (+10.5) has momentum · bull all EMAs reclaimed · POC at 10017 is the natural pull

BEARISH WARNINGS

WEAK

- SHEL — Just broke down today. Crossed below EMA50 AND POC; MACD bear; RSI -7.6. Cam R1 3226 is the line. Highest-conviction short.
- BP — Below EMA20/9 (568); MACD bear; RSI -5.2. On pivot 553 — break of 542 opens path to 521 / EMA50 / EMA200.
- LSEG — Just broke down today. Crossed below EMA20; RSI -9.6 (biggest drop in universe); MACD bear; 21% off hi52. Light vol (rv 0.47) — wait for confirmation.
- REL — Crossed below EMA20 today; RSI -7.4; mixed structure. Tech/media sector lagging.
- BAE — Bear (below 20/50); defence losing leadership. Stay short-biased below EMA50 (2128).

NOT-FOR-SHORTING (OS / mean-reversion candidates)
- RKT — Bear below all, RSI 36.7, but MACD just turned bullish today; +6.6 RSI. Watch for OS bounce, don't chase short.
- GSK — RSI 29.8 (technically OS); bear below 20/50. Mean reversion candidate, not a short.
- AZN — Just crossed ABOVE EMA200 today (a hint). RSI 37.0. No-man's-land — wait for setup.
- HLN — Bear below all; RSI 32.2; -20% off hi52. No reason to be long, but not adding short here.



EVENTS CALENDAR

- HSBA reported Tue 5 May (Q1 fraud charge, missed forecasts) — recovered Wed.
- VOD/Hutchison VodafoneThree £4.3bn deal announced Tue.
- Today (Thu 7 May): No Tier-1 UK macro. US weekly jobless claims 13:30 BST. Fed speakers. ECB minutes 12:30 BST.
- Wed 14 May: UK GDP, industrial production.
- RR. next earnings 30 July.
- Energy / oil headlines are the dominant near-term catalyst (US-Iran framework progress).



TRADER'S NET-NET

The setup is: oil-down, risk-on, miners + banks + insurers leadership, energy as the funding short. The cleanest plays are continuation longs in names that just flipped (PRU, RR., DGE, CPG) plus the breakout watch on RIO, with SHEL as the highest-conviction short.

The risk to this thesis is a single Iran headline reversal — if a deal breaks down, oil rips back to $108+, SHEL/BP rally, and the whole rotation unwinds in hours. Position size accordingly: this is a sentiment-driven move, not a fundamental one (yet).

Wednesday 6 May 2026 - FTSE 100 Daily TA & Intraday Setups
Data: Close 5 May (Tue) · UKX: 10,219.11 (-1.4%, -144.82) · Prev: 10,363.93 (Fri 1 May - Mon 4 was bank holiday) · Futures: data unavailable - check live before open



MARKET OVERVIEW

UK reopened from the Early Spring Bank Holiday with a sharp risk-off session - down 144 points and clearly the biggest single-day drop since mid-April. The damage was concentrated in banks (HSBA -6.1% on a weak Q1, dragging LLOY/BARC/STAN/NWG with it) and healthcare (GSK and AZN both down again - GSK -8.93% on the week, RSI now 25.8). Geopolitics is doing real work: Iran/US tensions around the Strait of Hormuz kept Brent elevated near $110-114, but the cyclical weakness outweighed any energy lift to the index. Miners (RIO, AAL, GLEN) and defensive industrials (BNZL, RTO, LSEG) held up.

Futures direction note: no clean pre-market futures level - confirm via your platform before the cash open.

TOP SWING TRADE SETUPS

1. BNZL - Continuation Long (NEW momentum leader)
Setup: Above all EMAs, ADX 33.6 (strong trend), RSI 68.6, MACD bull cross 52.28 vs 49.7 signal, +1.19% yesterday and rising vs sea of red. Price trades well above POC 2243 - all-volume support.
Entry: 2455-2470 (pullback to Cam R1 / Pivot zone) · Stop: 2400 (below EMA9/Cam S4) · T1: 2540 (R3) · T2: 2609 (52w high) · R:R: 1:1.6 to 1:2.2
Why: One of the only stocks in the universe with bullish day-over-day RSI delta (+3.1) and a rising MACD. ATR 48 supports stop placement.

2. LSEG - Pullback Long (continuation, low risk)
Setup: Above all EMAs, ADX 36 (strongest trend reading in our universe), RSI 59.7, MACD strongly positive (254 vs 284 signal). Price 9600 sitting on pivot 9602, EMA9 just above. POC at 8624 means deep volume support far below.
Entry: 9560-9620 (current zone, pivot/EMA9 confluence) · Stop: 9410 (below EMA20 + Cam S3) · T1: 9740 (R1) · T2: 9880 (R2) · R:R: 1:1 to 1:1.5
Why: CONTINUING setup - has been the cleanest uptrend since mid-April. Down only -0.27% on a -1.4% market day = relative strength.

3. WPP - Recovery Breakout (new this week)
Setup: +2.65% on a -1.4% market day. Above EMA20 AND EMA50 (only just) but still 55% off 52w high. Week +6.01%. RSI rose 5.1 pts day-over-day. POC 255 below price = volume now flipping bullish.
Entry: 268-272 (pullback to Cam S1/pivot) · Stop: 258 (below EMA20) · T1: 280 (R1) · T2: 293 (R3) · R:R: 1:1 to 1:1.4
Why: NEW setup. Beaten-down recovery trade. Still well below 200d so this is short-term tactical, not a multi-month thesis.

4. RIO - Trend Continuation (high-quality, low ADX)
Setup: Above all EMAs, RSI 57.6, just -0.32% yesterday. ADX 14.5 = early trend. POC 6958 well below. Only 2.6% off 52w high.
Entry: 7330-7370 (pivot/EMA9 area) · Stop: 7200 (below EMA20) · T1: 7440 (R1) · T2: 7575 (52w high - psychological) · R:R: 1:1 to 1:1.7
Why: CONTINUING setup. Mining sector held while banks/pharma collapsed = clear relative strength. Iron ore narrative intact.

5. STAN - Buy-the-Dip (oversold within uptrend)
Setup: Despite -3.65% drop, STILL above all three EMAs. RSI 57.9 (cooled from 68.1). MACD still bullish (44.45 vs 37.3). ADX 22.2.
Entry: 1810-1820 (Cam S1 / EMA9) · Stop: 1765 (below EMA20) · T1: 1855 (R1/Cam R4) · T2: 1924 (52w high) · R:R: 1:0.8 to 1:1.9
Why: Banking selloff overshot here - STAN's structure is still constructive unlike LLOY/HSBA which have BROKEN their 20/50d. The cleanest bank long.



INTRADAY SETUPS

A. BNZL - Pivot Bounce Long
Entry: 2444 (Pivot) or 2453 (S1 ABOVE pivot - tight) · Stop: 2424 (below S1) · Target: 2484 (R1) -> 2504 (R2) · Direction: LONG
Why: Stock printed +1.19% on a red day. Pivot bounce in confluence with EMA9 just below. ADX 33.6 = trend strength.

B. LSEG - Camarilla Range Long
Entry: 9575 (Cam S1) · Stop: 9520 (below Cam S3) · Target: 9625 (Cam R1) -> 9676 (Cam R3) · Direction: LONG
Why: Cam range tight (S1-R1 = 50pts vs ATR 239) so Cam fade works. Trend confirms (ADX 36). Price near pivot.

C. GSK - Camarilla Breakdown Short
Entry: Sell break of 1837 (Cam S3) for trend day · Stop: 1857 (above Cam R1) · Target: 1813 (S2) -> 1782 (S3) · Direction: SHORT
Why: RSI 25.8 + ADX 29.4 + week -8.93%. A break of S3 confirms continuation. Heavy ATR 54 means decent move available. Caveat: deeply oversold so size carefully.

D. HSBA - Pivot Rejection Short
Entry: 1276-1280 (Pivot/Cam R1 rejection) · Stop: 1300 (above R1 + EMA50 reclaim) · Target: 1255 (S1) -> 1234 (S2) · Direction: SHORT
Why: Just broke EMA20 AND EMA50 in one session, RSI flipped Bull-Bear. Reaction rallies into pivot are short opportunities until 1290+ reclaimed. Heavy volume rv=1.16 confirms genuine selling.

E. WPP - Pivot/EMA9 Continuation Long
Entry: 272 (pivot/Cam S1) on bid · Stop: 266 (below S1/EMA9) · Target: 274.5 (Cam R3) -> 280 (R1) · Direction: LONG
Why: +2.65% yesterday on red market = strong relative strength. RSI rising day-over-day. Tight Cam = high probability fade-to-range trade.

BEARISH WARNINGS

Just broke down (yesterday):
HSBA - broke EMA20 AND EMA50 in one move. RSI flipped Bull-Bear. ADX 25.4 already trending.
LGEN - just crossed BELOW EMA200. Now below all three EMAs. Watch 252.32 EMA200 as immediate resistance.
ULVR - broke EMA20. Already below 50/200. ADX 37.7 - strong bearish trend.
TSCO - broke EMA50 AND POC. Below all short-term levels.
NG - broke EMA20 + EMA50 (still above 200d).
BP - broke EMA20 (still above 50/200).
BATS - broke EMA50 (mixed structure).
AZN - broke EMA200. RSI 32 oversold but ADX 23.8 means trend has space to extend.

Already weak, watch for continuation:
GSK - RSI 25.8, week -8.93%, ADX 29.4. Below all EMAs ex 200d (which sits AT price 1850.6 = the line in the sand).
RKT - RSI 30.1, ADX 40.2 (strongest bearish ADX), 29% off 52w high. Below all EMAs.
HLN - RSI 32.1, ADX 33.4, 20% off 52w high.
III - far below all EMAs, 43% off 52w high. Structurally damaged.
ABF - ADX 39, below all EMAs, 24% off 52w high.

Momentum loss (no break yet):
VOD - +0.87% but MACD bearish crossover, RSI dropped 8.1 pts. First warning shot.
ADM - RSI dropped 9.4 pts, -2.01%. Still above all EMAs but momentum cooling fast.



EVENTS CALENDAR (this week)

- Wed 6 May (today): BoE rate decision watch (decision date varies but markets pricing in a HOLD according to recent reports). UK Construction PMI typically released this morning - check for sub-50 reading.
- Thu 7 May: BoE Monetary Policy Report and Press Conference is the typical first-Thursday slot. Expect sterling and rates volatility.
- Fri 8 May: Quiet UK calendar. Watch for US NFP (typically first Friday).
- Macro context: Iran/US Strait of Hormuz tensions are still the dominant non-earnings catalyst. Brent above $110. Local elections were the political backdrop yesterday.
- Earnings (recent / ongoing): HSBC reported Tue (missed), GSK and AZN have been under pressure post-results. Watch for Q1 trading updates from miners and consumer staples.

Tuesday 5 May 2026
Data: Close 1 May · UKX: ~10,380 · Futures: ~10,638 (gap +2.5% post Bank Holiday)



MARKET OVERVIEW

UK reopens after Bank Holiday Monday with futures pointing ~+250 pts higher than Friday's close. Three days of overseas drift on Middle East ceasefire optimism + softer oil being priced in at the bell. BoE held 3.75% on 30 April; CPI 3.3% (Mar). Light UK macro this week.

CRITICAL — Friday's pivot/Camarilla levels become reference only on a gap this size. Mark the opening 30-min range and trade off that, not Friday's S/R.



NOTABLE CHANGES (DAY-OVER-DAY)

BEARISH MOVES
- AZN — Close -2.91%, RSI dropped 6.3 to 33.8, weekly -3.34%. Pharma weakness leader.
- GSK — Weekly -5.66%, RSI 29.2 (oversold), MACD bearish accelerating.
- REL — MACD BEARISH crossover at top of range.
- CPG — Crossed ABOVE EMA50 BUT MACD bearish crossover. Mixed signal, do not chase.
- BP — Close -1.87%, RSI -4.3 to 52.8. Oil-led pullback, trend intact.

BULLISH MOVES
- ULVR — Close +2.69%, RSI surge +8.9 to 53.1, crossed ABOVE EMA20, week +4.25%. Textbook recovery.
- RR. — Crossed ABOVE EMA20, week +6.34%. Aerospace momentum building.
- BATS — Crossed ABOVE EMA50. Tobacco joining the bid.
- DGE — Crossed ABOVE EMA20, RSI +3.5. Spirits recovering.

Theme: defensives (ULVR, DGE, BATS) recovering while pharma (AZN, GSK, RKT) keeps cracking.

INTRADAY SETUPS

Gap-day caveat — Friday's pivots distorted by 250-pt gap. Wait first hour, mark opening range, trade the break.

CamR4 Breakout candidates (trend day):
- HSBA — CamR4 1,370.76 likely breached on gap. Hold above + consolidation = long T 1,400. Stop below CamR3 1,364.68.
- LSEG — CamR4 9,721.70 next resistance. Breakout-retest entry. T1 9,900 / Stop CamR3 9,673.
- ADM — CamR4 3,466.15. Above this opens 52wH 3,686.

Range / Pivot fade (if no follow-through):
- GLEN — Tight range CamS3 561.86 to CamR3 565.54. Fade extremes, very tight stops.
- NG — Below pivot 1,309 and EMA20 1,295. Short bias on pivot rejection, T CamS3 1,299.
- AZN — Near CamS3 13,467. Oversold bounce ONLY if reclaims pivot 13,630 on volume — otherwise leave alone.

Camarilla range fade:
- BAE — CamS3 2,028.51 to CamR3 2,041.49 narrow. Sell rallies (bear EMA stack).
- REL — Range CamS3 2,692 to CamR3 2,711. Fade upper toward S1 2,681 (MACD just turned bear).

BEARISH WARNINGS

WORST: AZN — -2.91% Friday, RSI 33.8 falling fast (-6.3 d/d), MACD diverging deep, 5.5% below EMA20, far below POC 14,690. ATR 336 = wide moves. Avoid longs unless 13,720 reclaimed on volume.

WEAK: GSK — RSI 29.2 oversold, week -5.66%, MACD accelerating bearish. Pharma sector wreckage continues.

EVENTS CALENDAR

UK earnings season winding down. Recently: BP beat Q1, NatWest beat with Iran warning, Pearson +3% on Q1 sales. No FOMC this week (next mid-June). Light macro = price-action driven week post-gap.

Monday 4 May 2026
Data: Close Friday 1 May · UKX: ~10,363.93 (-0.14%) · Status: UK markets CLOSED today (Early May Bank Holiday). Setups apply for Tuesday 5 May open.



MARKET OVERVIEW

UKX closed Friday at 10,363.93 (-0.14%). Tape dragged by NatWest-led bank weakness and pharma (AZN -2.91%, GSK -1.53%). Oil softer with BP -1.87%. Underneath the headline, leadership has rotated into HSBA, ULVR, IMB, STAN, RR. — defensive consumer + selective banks.

UK futures pricing for today is not meaningful (markets closed). Asia overnight mixed: Nikkei near record highs (~59,900), Kospi firm, S&P futures little changed. No outsized gap drivers.

This week: UK Construction PMI (Tue), Services PMI (Wed), US ISM Services (Mon), FOMC speakers throughout the week.



NOTABLE CHANGES — DAY-OVER-DAY

The sharpest one-day shifts in our 40-stock universe:

- AZN — Big move -2.91%, RSI dropped 6.3 pts to 33.8, MACD deeper negative. Stretched got more stretched.
- ULVR — RSI surged 8.9 pts to 53.1, crossed ABOVE EMA20, week +4.25% / RSI delta +16.6. Best one-week reversal candidate.
- NWGCrossed BELOW EMA200, -3.1% with RV 0.79. Material trend break.
- LLOY — Lost EMA20 AND EMA50 in one session. Bank dispersion building.
- STAN — 5-day up streak, week +7.4%, RSI delta +12.5. Strongest momentum in the index.
- RR. — Crossed ABOVE EMA20, +2.0% / week +6.3%. Momentum returning.
- IMB — MACD BULLISH crossover, 4-day up streak.
- CPG — Crossed ABOVE EMA50 BUT printed MACD bearish crossover. Conflicting; needs confirmation.
- PRU / VOD / LGEN — Reclaim signals across mid-tier names.



SECTOR HEATMAP

STRONG
- Insurance: avg +1.4% — ADM BULL all EMAs, RSI 64.2, ADX 30.7. LGEN reclaimed EMA200.

- Banks (top half): HSBA, STAN, BARC firm — but watch the split below.

WEAK
- Pharma: avg -2.2% — Both AZN and GSK BEAR (<20/50). GSK -5.7% wk = worst single-stock weekly move.
- Banks (bottom half): NWG broke EMA200, LLOY broke EMA20+50.
- Oil/Energy: avg -1.4% — BP still BULL all EMAs but pulled back hard.

NEUTRAL / MIXED

- Tech/Data: LSEG strongest trend (ADX 36.2), EXPN BEAR all.
- Industrials: RR. up, BAE down. Two-speed.

Drivers: STAN record Q1 profit, LLOY Q1 EPS +33%, miners firm on China data, oil bid on Iran-related supply disruption supporting energy heavyweights.

Macro today: US Non-Farm Payrolls 13:30 BST is the binary risk into the close (March print +178k vs +60k expected). Mon 4 May is UK Bank Holiday - LSE closed - so today is the last full European session before a long weekend. Expect early afternoon position-squaring after NFP.

Thursday 30 April 2026 — FTSE 100 Daily Setup
Data: Close 29 April · UKX: ~10,261 (Apr 29 close, -0.7%) · Futures: ~10,642 (intraday Apr 30, IG) · BoE Day: Rate decision today (Bank Rate held at 3.75% expected)



MARKET OVERVIEW

UK heading into BoE day under pressure. The cash market closed near 10,261 on Tuesday after the seventh decline in eight sessions, dragged by pharma earnings disappointment (GSK -6.5% despite beat, AZN dragging) and a broad-based de-risking ahead of the rate decision. Futures indicate a flat-to-firmer open. Reuters poll has all 62 economists expecting BoE to hold at 3.75% today; market will trade the tone of the minutes and Bailey press conference rather than the headline.

The internal picture in our 40-stock scanner is weak: only 3 names closed up more than +0.5% (WPP, BARC, GLEN, BP), against 10+ down more than -1%. Breadth is poor, RSIs rolling over across pharma, insurance and miners. BP's 4-day up streak is the only clean momentum thread on the long side.



NOTABLE CHANGES — WHAT MOVED YESTERDAY

These are the stocks that demand attention today.

GSK — RSI dropped 12.6pts to 29.2 (oversold), -6.5% on rv=1.6, week -8.69%, RSI week -18pts. Capitulation flush post Q1 results despite EPS beat (46.5p vs 43.3p est) — guidance unchanged disappointed.

AAL — Crossed BELOW EMA20, MACD bearish crossover, 4-day down streak, week -7.34%. Iron ore complex breaking trend.

AV — Triple break: BELOW EMA20, BELOW EMA200, BELOW POC. MACD bearish cross. RSI -8.1pts. Insurance complex weak.

PRU — Crossed BELOW EMA20 AND EMA50 same day, MACD bearish, BELOW POC. Sustained breakdown.

NG — Crossed BELOW EMA20 AND EMA50 on heavy volume (rv=2.5). Highest conviction sell signal in scanner — utilities under heavy distribution.

WPP — RSI surged +8.1pts, crossed ABOVE EMA50, +4.2% (only meaningful gainer). Fresh long candidate.

BARC — Crossed ABOVE EMA20 AND EMA50 same day. Banks complex rotating up.

NWG / RR. / LGEN — All crossed BELOW EMA200. Major trend break for these three.



SECTOR HEATMAP

WEAK — Pharma: GSK -6.49% (RSI 29 OS), HLN -3.16% (RSI 33), AZN -1.77% (RSI 32). Whole sector flushed on earnings reactions.

WEAK — Insurance: AV -2.26%, LGEN -1.78%, PRU -1.39%. Three names crossed below EMA200/POC same day. Sector-wide rotation out.

WEAK — Utilities: SSE -2.33% (4-day down streak), NG -0.99% (heavy volume break). Defensive bid not showing up.

WEAK — Industrials: RR. -2.74% (broke EMA200), BAE -1.81%, BNZL -1.40%, RTO -0.62%. Defence stocks unwinding.

MIXED — Mining: GLEN +0.63% (only winner, broke ABOVE EMA20), but AAL/RIO/ANTO all in down streaks. Bifurcated.

MIXED — Banks: BARC +0.78%, STAN +0.49%, HSBA -0.09%, but LLOY -1.24%, NWG -1.69% (broke EMA200). UK domestics weaker than internationals.

RELATIVELY STRONG — Energy: BP +0.51% (4-day up streak, BULL all EMAs), SHEL -0.43%. Cleanest long sector.

MIXED — Media/Info: WPP +4.17% breakout, LSEG -1.54% (still BULL all), REL -0.81%, INF -0.95%.

TOP SWING TRADE SETUPS

1. WPP — Fresh Bullish Reversal (NEW today)
RSI surge of +8.1 to 60.1, crossed ABOVE EMA50, +4.2% close on improving structure. POC at 256.04 just below price provides volume support. Still well below EMA200 (341.55) so this is bottom-fishing not trend-following — risk-defined.
Entry: 264-266 (pivot 264.92 / Cam S3 264.80) · Stop: 256 (below POC and ATR) · T1: 273 (R1) · T2: 278 (R2) · R:R: 1:1.4

2. BP — Continuation Long (NEW signal: 4-day up streak)
Only stock in scanner with a 4-day up streak. BULL all EMAs, RSI 54.9 with room, POC 527 well below — clean uptrend. Energy sector relative strength backed by recent oil tailwind.
Entry: 572-574 (Cam S3 573.76 / Cam S4 571.61 zone) · Stop: 565 (below ATR-based stop) · T1: 580 (Cam R3) · T2: 591 (next swing) · R:R: 1:1.5

3. ADM — Continuation, RSI Strong (CONTINUING setup)
RSI 69.1 just below OB, but ADX 31.8 confirms trend strength. BULL all EMAs with POC 3076 well below. Pulls back into Cam S3 are buys.
Entry: 3404-3416 (Cam S4-S3 zone) · Stop: 3370 (below S2) · T1: 3454 (Cam R4) · T2: 3500 · R:R: 1:1.4

4. BARC — Fresh Bullish Pivot (NEW)
Crossed ABOVE EMA20 AND EMA50 same day. Now BULL all. Banks rotating up. RSI 52.1 has plenty of room.
Entry: 427-428 (pivot/Cam S3 zone) · Stop: 420 (below ATR low) · T1: 433 (R1) · T2: 442 (next swing) · R:R: 1:1.5

5. STAN — Trend Continuation
BULL all EMAs, RSI 59.1 Bull MACD cross, POC 1674 well below. International bank exposure — less BoE-sensitive than Lloyds/NWG.
Entry: 1772-1780 (Cam S4-S3 zone) · Stop: 1755 (below S2) · T1: 1804 (R1) · T2: 1820 (R2) · R:R: 1:1.7



INTRADAY SETUPS — BoE DAY ACTION

BoE decision at 12:00 BST will spike volatility. Expect tight ranges pre-announcement, expansion after. Camarilla S3/R3 fades work pre-decision; S4/R4 breakouts work post-decision in trending names.

A. WPP — Cam S3 Bounce Long
Entry: 264.80 (Cam S3) · Stop: 261.10 (Cam S4) · Target: 272.20 (Cam R3) · Direction: LONG · Why: Fresh bullish breakout, RSI surge, momentum. Pullback to S3 with rising structure is a buyable test.

B. NG — Cam R3 Fade Short (HIGH CONVICTION)
Entry: 1292 (Cam R3) · Stop: 1300.25 (Cam R4) · Target: 1276 (Cam S3) · Direction: SHORT · Why: Heavy volume break (rv=2.5) below EMA20+50. Any rally to Cam R3 should fade. Distribution is loud.

C. AV — Cam R3 Fade Short
Entry: 623.36 (Cam R3) · Stop: 627.55 (Cam R4) · Target: 614.98 (Cam S3) · Direction: SHORT · Why: Triple break below EMA20/200/POC + bearish MACD cross. Insurance sector weak. Bounces should fail.

D. BP — Cam S3 Pivot Long
Entry: 573.76 (Cam S3) · Stop: 571.61 (Cam S4) · Target: 578.05 (Cam R3) · Direction: LONG · Why: 4-day up streak, energy strength. Tight range pre-BoE; S3 is structural buy.

E. GSK — Oversold Bounce Speculation
Entry: 1845 (Cam S3 / round number) · Stop: 1790 (Cam S4) · Target: 1956 (Cam R3) · Direction: LONG (counter-trend) · Why: RSI 29 OS after 6.5% capitulation flush. EPS beat. Dead-cat bounce trade only — not a sustained long.
