DAX hit yesterday Resistance 1 (the September 03 High) but got rejected and failed to close the candle above it. Naturally, the market is reacting with weakness today and so far a red 1D candle. As you realize, the key here is to close that candle above Resistance 1, which is what happened in the middle of the previous Bullish Leg of the 1-year Channel Up. After...
Last time we looked at DAX (FDAX1!) it gave us another successful sell signal (May 17) at the top (Higher Highs trend-line) of the 9-month Channel Up: This time it is issuing a medium-term buy signal as after reaching the bottom (Higher Lows trend-line) of the 6-month Channel Up, while hitting and holding the 1D MA100 (green trend-line) as Support, it is...
DAX (FDAX1!) gave as an excellent sell opportunity last month (April 11, see chart below) that hit the 17700 Target and shortly after rebounded: The index yet again flashes a sell signal as the price got rejected yesterday exactly at the top (Higher Highs trend-line) of the 1.5 year Channel Up. In symmetrical terms, this is similar to the Higher High...
DAX has a rejection on April 01 exactly at the top (Higher Highs trend-line) of the 18-month Channel Up (since October 03 2022). The 1D MACD made a Bearish Cross, being Lower High than the previous one on December 18 2023, which is exactly what happened on the January 27 2023 Bearish Cross. That sequence was the first Bullish Leg that topped to form the Channel's...
DAX (DE40) is extending a very strong Bullish Leg, which started after the previous short-term correction ended on January 17 2024 with a contact on the 1D MA50 (blue trend-line). This is part of an overall Bullish Wave that emerged on the latest Higher Low (October 27 2023) of the 1.5 year Channel Up. However as the 1D MACD is about to form a Bearish Cross...
Exactly 3 months ago (December 06 2023, see chart below), we set a 17800 Target on DAX (DE40) and the index hit that level yesterday: At the time DAX was the first major stock index to hit new All Time Highs (ATH) and as we mentioned it "sent a message to indices globally". And followed they did, as all markets followed this lead and rose aggressively. This...
DAX (DE40) is on a short-term Channel Up, supported by the 1D MA50 (blue trend-line), which has held twice in the past month (January 17 and February 13). As long as it holds, we will most likely see a break of the long-term Channel Up, which in time could complete a +20.90% rise as the July 31 2023 High. In that case, we will target 17400 on the short-term. If...
DAX (DE40) has transitioned into a Channel Down pattern following the December 14 top rejection on the Higher Highs trend-line. The 1D MA50 (blue trend-line) is fast approaching as the first level of Support but we expect it downtrend to bottom lower as resembles the declines of August 2023, March 2023 and December 2022 both on price and 1D RSI terms. All those...
DAX (DE40) gave us an excellent sell signal last time we looked into it (December 14 2023, see chart below), as the 1D MACD Bearish Cross, was our sell signal: Our 16500 short-term target has already been hit, and we now shift our focus on the medium-term as it appears that this pull-back will most likely be extended to the 1D MA50 (blue trend-line) at...
DAX (DE40) is trading within a 16-month Channel Up and is currently on the second most aggressive bullish leg, about to form the 2nd 1D Golden Cross within that time span. The 1D RSI is above 85.00 touching historically overbought levels while the price is approaching the 1.382 Fibonacci extension from the previous Higher High of the Channel, which is below where...
DAX hit a new All Time High level, leading world stock indices on this rally and sending a clear message to markets globally: This rally has only just started. As you see on this 1M (monthly) time-frame, with the obvious exception of the COVID crash anomaly (Black Swan event), the index has been trading within a very stable Channel Up pattern since the start of...
DAX eventually broke to the upside following our previous trade idea (see chart below) and hit both our 15635 and 15995 targets: The index is now approaching Resistance 1 (16535), which is the All Time High (ATH) but the 1D CCI shows a Bearish Divergence and potential short-term pull-back. That would serve as an excellent accumulation opportunity for an...
DAX extended its almost 1 month rise and is about to hit Resistance (1) at 16065. We've had two rejections there in August. Over this Resistance lies the 0.786 Fibonacci retracement level, a key technical Resistance during recovery rallies. Besides those obvious bearish bias, the current rally can be compared to the pattern from March 7th to May 19th, which ended...
DAX turned overbought on the 1D timeframe (RSI = 71.962, MACD = 124.900, ADX = 41.751) as it closed its 9th straight green 1D candle and is approaching the R1 level (16,050). This has been the Resistance since the start of August. The index is in need of a technical pullback otherwise this rally won't be sustainable. We will short next week's opening near the R1...
It's been a bit long since we last took a trade on DAX (DE40) but it didn't disappoint as it hit both our buy and sell targets (see chart below) within the 3-month Channel Down: The rebound took place within the 6-month Support Zone and slightly under the 1W MA100 (green trend-line), similar to the March 20 rebound. The fractals are identical as they both...
DAX hit (even breached) the bottom of the Channel Down on the 1D timeframe and reacted with a rebound. It is not a strong one yet as the 1D technical outlook is still bearish (RSI = 34.478, MACD = -177.100, ADX = 34.069) but the remarkable symmetry with the two bearish legs prior, calls for a currently undervalued price for the short term. Technically the two...
DAX hit last week the bottom (Lower Highs trend-line) of the Channel Down that started after the July 31 High. Technically that is a short-term buy signal, aimed at the 1D MA50 (blue trend-line) and the top of the Channel Down. Our current target is 15500 (also on a +3.70% symmetry with the previous bullish leg of the Channel). A 1D candle close above the Channel...
DAX touched the bottom of the Channel Down today and immediately reacted positively. The 1D timeframe is bearish technically (RSI = 33.050, MACD = -53.850, ADX = 44.059) but the RSI double bottomed inside a Zone same way it did on the August 18th LL. We are long, aiming at a +3.73% rise (same as August) as so far the bearish legs at least have been symmetrical. We...
