The market in the usual tradition fell on Tuesday and Wednesday of the week, if the tradition continues it will rise on Thursday and Friday only to be resold again next week. Inevitably the market cannot continue to fall inexorably, but the news of a mild winter fewer supply worries are something which inevitably will cause the market not to rise dramatically. Winter tends to see prices rise, and at some point the rise upwards will come back with players looking to sustain a certain level.

Many buyers will look to secure good prices at £35 and £45 for Summer 07 and Winter 07 respectively, these are levels which we have not seen before and rather than being technical levels they are pschological barriers which if breached will call many buyers to pick up the phone to their traders.
