FTSE to open at 6,607 (-10 pts)

European equities are set for a mildly bearish open.

Asian indices continued to retreat from highs, but it should be noted that they have erased much of their losses as we head towards the London open.

For those of you trading gold, the metal hit long-term support $1764 overnight, printing a seven month low.

Regency Risk Barometer Snapshot

The FTSE erased its gains for the week yesterday and that is far from a bullish sign.

However, the market is now back at a confluent area of support which is represented by a retest of top of the broken mini-range and the ascending trendline.

This area needs to hold for the early-Feb recovery story to continue.
