Inverse H&S FORMED ON FTSE - POSSIBLE STOP HUNT IN PLAYAn inverse head-and-shoulders pattern has formed on the FTSE, with a projection of around 200 points, which would pull it towards the 6900 handle. This leads me to believe that market makers are looking to clear out the stops that will be resting above the 'double top' before any further move down in the index.
6921 is the 70.5 OTE fib retracement from the 10th April high to the low that just formed in early July, and comes in at the low of the 4H bearish order block. Respect of this block would also give optimal entry for a possible correction in the market over the coming weeks.

Stophunters at the ready.. Will the bat take off?The markets appears to be trending within an 3 drive uptrend channel. However, when drawing some fibs from March 2013, I saw the 0.236 retracement level has not been touched yet.
So this got me thinking.. If i was a BIG investor/trader with lots of money, at which levels should I be looking at?
Well, drawing in some more fibs from 2014-09, 2014-11, 2015-01 i came up with a nice cluster of fib retracements around that same 0.236 retracement level:
a 0.236 retracement at 1.8694 (2013-03)
a 0.5 retracement at 1.8618 (2014-09)
a 0.618 retracement at 1.8685 (2014-11)
a 0.786 retracement at 1.8700 (2015-01)
a 0.886 retracement at 1.8532 (competion bull bat)
This gives me a zone of roughly 168 pips.
Also, if you look left, you can also see that this zone is lined up with previous structure zones.
So is it possible that this channel can be broken to the downside only to hit that zone, complete a bat and immediately reverse back north? Could it be that stophunters think this way? Can they push the market lower to that zone?
So if I was to go long now, I know i would definitely place my stops below that zone. From a risk:reward perspective I would wait for the bat to complete to go long.
