1-hr FTSE100: Traders are Selling Off Their UK StocksThe FTSE100 index remains firmly in a downtrend, highlighted by several Death Cross patterns appearing since last week. This bearish signal, where the 20-period moving average dips below the 60-period moving average, indicates strong selling pressure and an overall negative market sentiment. However, the current price level is relatively low, which may tempt short-term buyers seeking potential bargains. If this buying interest materializes, it could trigger a pullback, lifting the index to 8,064 (23% Fibonacci retracement) or potentially even higher to 8,107 (38% Fibonacci level). These elevated resistance levels could then serve as optimal entry points for traders looking to rejoin the broader downtrend through new short positions.

UK100 Approaching Key Support Zone for Potential ReversalHello, CAPITALCOM:UK100 has encountered resistance at the 1M pivot point, leading to further downside movement. Currently, the price is approaching a strong support level at 7942.9445, which has historically held and may present a challenge. The zone between 7954.7045 and 7942.9445 is a potential reversal area, where the price could turn back upward. However, if it establishes itself below this range, further downside could ensue. Confidence is high that this could mark the definitive low before an upward trend resumes, though the opposite scenario cannot be ruled out. Time and confirmation will provide clarity. No Nonsense.

Drop Goes The FTSE - Short Side Case Coming In.The FTSE has shown so much sideways movement in and around highs historically, as investor wonder whether there is a bull or bear case. Initial growth stats looked reasonable, but the Labour Govt's budget has ripped into the hopes of business in the UK. Higher taxes will mean lower business revenues, and all sorts of Economic headwinds to follow. I am still holding shorts lower and accumulating swaps. Any re-push higher and I will re-add shorts.

Recognizing and Overcoming the Belief in Controllable OutcomesIn trading, the illusion of control bias is a cognitive trap where traders believe they can influence outcomes that are, in reality, beyond their control. This misconception can lead to risky behaviors, overconfidence, and trading errors that ultimately hurt performance. Recognizing and managing this bias is essential for any trader who wants to make sound, objective decisions in a largely unpredictable environment. Below, I’ll cover some approaches to understanding and overcoming the illusion of control in trading to help you stay grounded and focused. 1️⃣ Understanding the Illusion of Control Bias: Origins and Impact on Trading The illusion of control bias stems from a psychological tendency where people believe their actions directly influence outcomes, even when they don’t. In trading, this can manifest as a belief that one can control market movements by timing trades or reading charts “correctly.” This bias often leads traders to make overconfident decisions based on a false sense of power. For example, traders might continue doubling down on a losing position because they “feel” they can predict a turnaround. Recognizing that trading outcomes are ultimately probabilistic helps counter this bias. 2️⃣ Identifying Common Triggers of Control Bias in Market Contexts Market conditions often bring out the illusion of control. Volatile markets, economic events, and price trends can encourage traders to believe they have some insight or edge in controlling outcomes. For instance, a trader might think that by analyzing a chart pattern, they can influence the outcome of a trade. But no matter the experience level, all market variables cannot be controlled. Reflecting on such instances and identifying specific triggers, like earnings announcements or economic reports, helps traders develop awareness and avoid illusion-driven decisions. 3️⃣ Differentiating Between Influence and Control in Trading Decisions One effective way to mitigate control bias is by distinguishing between having influence over decisions and controlling outcomes. Traders can influence which assets they choose, their entry and exit points, and risk management strategies, but they can’t control how the market will react. Practicing this mindset requires a shift in focus: rather than concentrating on whether an outcome aligns with expectations, traders can measure success based on disciplined adherence to their strategy, regardless of short-term market swings.This is usually one of the toughest concepts for me to drive home for inexperienced students. 4️⃣ Analyzing Historical Examples of Control Bias in Trading Failures History offers countless examples of how control bias has affected trading outcomes. For instance, during the tech boom in the early 2000s, many traders believed they could predict stock prices due to a sustained period of upward movement. When the bubble burst, the illusion of control was shattered for many who hadn’t properly hedged against risk. Similarly, learning from past mistakes—both personal and from case studies—can prevent a similar mentality. Reviewing such events serves as a practical exercise to remain grounded. 5️⃣ Building a Routine of Objective Decision-Making A structured, rules-based approach to trading can help keep control bias at bay. For example, a well-designed trading plan that includes entry and exit strategies, risk levels, and routine performance reviews can remind traders that long term, sustainable and consistent success isn’t based on market control but on disciplined execution. Daily reflection exercises, where one reviews both winning and losing trades objectively, help isolate controllable factors (like trade size) from uncontrollable ones (like price fluctuations), grounding decisions in a factual, less emotion-driven framework. 6️⃣ Implementing Techniques for Emotional Detachment Another approach to overcoming the illusion of control is to foster emotional detachment from each trade outcome. Techniques like mindfulness and meditation are effective for staying present, reducing emotional responses, and distancing oneself from personal attachment to outcomes. For example, practicing meditation before trading hours can help keep emotions in check and remind traders to focus on their plan rather than on “winning” a trade. Developing these techniques trains the mind to treat each trade as an execution of strategy rather than a conquest. 7️⃣ Leveraging Performance Metrics to Replace Bias with Data By tracking performance metrics, you can maintain objectivity and let data, not emotion, guide decisions. For instance, recording key metrics such as win/loss/DC ratio, drawdown, size to equity ratios helps you see the reality of your approach. If a strategy shows success based on predefined metrics, then it can reinforce the right habits and decisions. This data-driven approach serves as a constant reminder that the trader’s performance isn’t a matter of market control but of disciplined adherence to a well-defined strategy. Understanding and overcoming the illusion of control bias is critical for every trader. By recognizing that markets cannot be controlled, focusing on influence over outcomes, maintaining discipline, and relying on objective data, you can build resilience against this pervasive bias. By making consistent efforts to remain objective, you position yourself to make more rational decisions, improving your performance over time.

FTSE 100 (UK100) Potential Bearish Reversal from Order BlockAnalysis Summary Higher High (HH) and Strong High: The HH near 8,420, along with the strong high marked on the chart, indicates a recent resistance level that has established an area of potential selling pressure. The current structure suggests that the market is struggling to maintain upward momentum from these highs. Change of Character (CHoCH): Multiple CHoCH levels indicate shifts in market sentiment. A key CHoCH to the left suggests a transition from bullish to bearish bias, while recent bullish retracement has encountered resistance within the current structure. Order Block: The blue-shaded order block around 8,300 represents a potential resistance area where sellers may step in if the price reaches this level again. This zone is likely to act as a key supply area, potentially triggering a reversal if tested. Weak Low: The weak low around 8,080 marks a vulnerable support level. If the bearish momentum continues, this low could be tested and possibly broken, confirming further downside potential. Potential Scenarios: Bearish Continuation: If the price retraces to the order block around 8,300 and encounters resistance, it could resume its downtrend, targeting the weak low at 8,080 and possibly lower levels if bearish pressure intensifies. Short-Term Bullish Retracement: A retracement into the order block would provide an opportunity for sellers to re-enter the market. However, if the price breaks above this order block, it may invalidate the bearish scenario and indicate a potential trend reversal. Conclusion The FTSE 100 chart suggests a bearish outlook with a potential retracement to the 8,300 order block. Traders may look for signs of rejection in this zone as a shorting opportunity, aiming for targets around the weak low at 8,080. Reactions within the order block will be crucial in determining the next move.
