FTSE 100 tests trendline from February
Despite some improvement over last week, the FTSE 100 has rapidly moved below the 7105 low from five sessions ago.
It is also testing the rising trendline that has held since the February lows. Below this, 7061 comes into view, and then to 6919. A recovery above 7250 (the highs of last week) is needed to put a more bullish view on the index.
