FTSE 100 stumbles at 7550
Last week saw the FTSE 100 repeatedly try to break above the 7550 zone of resistance (blue box), and then fail. It looks like further downside is in store for now, with the 7483 lows of last Thursday being the first area to look for support.
Below this, 7450 comes into play. A rally and close above 7560 would open the way to the peak at 7600.
