“Most believe Brussels could go for another so-called ‘flextension’. The latest reports suggest this could set a new Brexit date in January or February 2020, but crucially allow that deadline to be brought forward if a deal is ratified by the UK Parliament”, ING’s analyst said.

Technically, the price has broken above the mini-trend line resistance at 7228.0, as well as above the 200 MA on an hourly chart. The next important resistance is the 200 DMA, currently at 7269.1, while the descending trend line, which connects lower highs, is located around the 7315.0 mark.

On the downside, the mini-trend line is expected to provide the support for today. The ultimate support for the bulls remains 7020.
