FTSE 100, DAX 40 and Nasdaq 100 trade close to late November highs
FTSE 100, DAX 40 and Nasdaq 100 trade close to late November highs as traders return to work following US Thanksgiving holiday.
FTSE 100 continues to sideways trades
The FTSE 100 continues to range trade below its 8319 November high but above the 55-day simple moving average (SMA) at 8231.
Resistance above the 8319 November peak can be spotted between the 8326 - 8372 mid-September, early and late October highs. This area is expected to once again cap, though, if reached at all this year.
Good potential support below the 55-day SMA at 8231 sits between the September to early October lows at 8196 - 8153.
