Summary

Well, another week comes to an close, and it was certainly one for the bears, but across the week, the main indexes only declined by around 1%.

With the Friday break <1691, there remains the threat of further downside to the 1680/75 zone.

Bigger weekly/monthly charts remain outright bullish though.
