Its in the same article on IG

"Although late out of the blocks as it waited for the Hang Seng to close, HSBC has reported its third-quarter figures and made rapid progress up the FTSE 100 leader board. "

Of course it might be a typo.

I'm seeing more weakness in this pattern than I would normally. Anything over 6770 and I start breathing again.

No - I have a chart pattern I've seen over and over again. It just goes up from here. I will work out an exit level later. Unlikely to be today unless the Dow tanks.
