DAX Rally Overstretched? Initiating a Strategic Short PositionSince February 25, the DAX has surged by 7.24% without a meaningful pullback, suggesting potential overextension. Coupled with emerging bearish technical indicators and unfavorable economic fundamentals, this presents an opportunity for a short position. Fundamental Analysis: Germany’s economic landscape is currently facing several challenges: • Economic Slowdown: The government has slashed its 2025 growth forecast to 0.3%, down from the previous 1.1%, citing trade tensions and domestic uncertainties. • Industrial Strife: Major companies are implementing job cuts and factory closures to manage rising costs and global competition, leading to increased labor disputes and uncertainty over Germany’s manufacturing sector. • Political Uncertainty: Upcoming European and local elections have intensified debates over economic policies and migration, contributing to market volatility and investor caution. Trade Details: • Entry: 22,611 • Stop-Loss: 23,000 • Target Zone: 21,800 - 21,600 • Partial Profits: To be taken at key support levels The confluence of technical signals and economic headwinds suggests a potential correction in the DAX. This short trade aims to capitalize on the anticipated pullback, with risk managed through a well-placed stop-loss and planned profit-taking at identified support zones. Next week will be critical for the Eurozone, with key economic data releases shaping market sentiment. Investors should particularly watch the PMI data on Friday, which could significantly impact expectations for the region’s economic trajectory. Stay informed and trade responsibly. Note: Please remember to adjust this trade idea according to your individual trading conditions, including position size, broker-specific price variations, and any relevant external factors. Every trader’s situation is unique, so it’s crucial to tailor your approach to your own risk tolerance and market environment.

DAX (DE40) INTRADAY consolidation supported at 22220The DAX (DE40) intraday price action sentiment appears bullish, supported by the longer-term prevailing uptrend. However, since the spike to intraday all time high at 22620 on 13th January 2025, the DAX price action is consolidating sideways, potentially indicating the overbought condition. The key trading level is at the 22220 level, which is the 61.8% Fib retracement from 12 Feb ’25 swing low. A corrective pullback from the current levels and a bullish bounce back from the 22220 level could target the upside resistance at 22480 followed by the 22620 and 22700 levels over the longer timeframe. Alternatively, a confirmed loss of the 22220 support and a daily close below that level would negate the bullish outlook opening the way for a further retracement and a retest of 22154 support level followed by 22000 and 21800.

DAX 40 Crosses the 22,000 Mark for the First TimeThe German index increased just over 3% in the past five sessions, driven by the strong performance of companies such as SAP, Siemens, and Deutsche Bank , which have posted gains exceeding 3% during this period. Notably, these companies represent more than 20% of the weight in DAX 40, making their positive performance a key factor in sustaining the bullish pressure that has now pushed the index to new all-time highs. Strong Uptrend The DAX 40 is currently in a strong uptrend, which has accelerated since November 2024. The price has now reached the 22,000-point zone , a potentially significant resistance level. However, for the buying momentum to remain intact in the short term, it will be crucial for bullish positions to hold above this level. Potential Correction At the moment, the RSI line continues to oscillate above the 70 level , signaling overbought conditions. Additionally, while the DAX price has been making higher highs, the RSI has been making lower highs, forming a bearish divergence. These two signals suggest that the recent buying activity may have created an imbalance in the market, which could open the door to short-term downward corrections. Key Levels to Watch: 22,000 points – A new critical resistance zone, aligning with the latest all-time high reached by the DAX 40. If buying activity remains strong above this level, it could help sustain the bullish bias and pave the way for further upward movement in the coming sessions. 21,300 points – A nearby support level, corresponding to a neutral zone from previous sessions, and also aligning with the 23.6% Fibonacci retracement level. This area could serve as a potential correction zone, and if price action falls below this barrier, it may lead to a sideways phase in the medium term. 20,300 points – A distant support level, aligning with the 50- and 100-period moving averages. If the price approaches this level, it could revive bearish sentiment and put the current uptrend at risk. By Julian Pineda, CFA – Market Analyst

Dax Short 4HGood Day, Trading View friends! I'm excited to share my latest trading insights with you. This setup is all about those trusty Fibonacci and psychological levels. Right now, the DAX is testing a 4-hour midline, and we’re typically seeing a pullback at this point. If the DAX can hold 21,500 and 21,550 as a demand area, based on our earlier 4-hour wave, we're aiming for the next level at 21,965 to 22,000. I’m on the lookout for a rejection near 22,000, followed by an M pattern with a lower high on the second peak for that perfect entry confirmation. Also, be cautious today as we have the FOMC meeting. Make sure to factor that into your strategies! Feel free to check out my previous setups to get a feel for how I approach things. I can’t wait to hear what you think and keep the conversation going!

DAX 40 Remains in Strong Overbought ZoneThe German index has recorded eight consecutive sessions of gains, appreciating more than 5% in the short term. The price level of 21,400 points now stands as the all-time high barrier for the current long-term bullish trend. Strong Trend: The bullish momentum that emerged after the significant drop in August 2024 has been key to the continuation of the long-term uptrend. However, the accelerated pace of buying in the short term could lead to bearish corrections in the coming sessions. RSI: The RSI indicator shows an impressively bullish slope, currently displaying readings of 83 —well above the overbought level of 70. The current event in the DAX price indicates that recent movements have created an imbalance in bullish and bearish forces, which could trigger early bearish corrections as the price continues to advance. Key Levels: 21,400 points: Positioned as the new resistance zone at the latest all-time high. Consistent buying pressure is necessary to maintain the bullish bias currently observed in the index. 20,300 points: The nearest support level on the chart and a potential area for bearish corrections in the short term. If the price drops below this level, sustained bearish pressure on the DAX could return. By Julian Pineda, CFA - Market Analyst

DAX Daily Short Setup: Targeting 19,700The DAX approached its previous high but failed to break through, signaling potential exhaustion at these levels. In response, I have initiated a short position, targeting a retracement to the 19,700 price zone. Fundamental Insights: 1. Economic Uncertainty: Disappointing inflation data from China has sparked concerns about demand for German goods, which weighed heavily on DAX futures during the Asian session. 2. Sector Weakness: The auto sector, including Porsche, BMW, and Volkswagen, saw significant declines due to lingering tariff threats and softening demand. 3. US Jobs Report Impact: Friday’s US Jobs Report could further dictate market sentiment. A weaker report may boost expectations for rate cuts, providing temporary support to the DAX. Conversely, stronger data may reinforce bearish momentum. 4. German Economic Indicators: While November’s industrial production showed a 1.5% rise, weak factory orders suggest limited optimism. Imports fell 3.3%, signaling declining demand, further justifying a cautious short bias. Technical Outlook: • The DAX remains above its 50-day and 200-day EMAs, indicating bullish momentum. However, failure to sustain above 20,523 strengthens the likelihood of a retracement. • The RSI near 59 suggests room for further downside before approaching oversold conditions. As always, maintain disciplined risk management. Let’s see how this setup unfolds! Note: Please remember to adjust this trade idea according to your individual trading conditions, including position size, broker-specific price variations, and any relevant external factors. Every trader’s situation is unique, so it’s crucial to tailor your approach to your own risk tolerance and market environment.

DAX: Watch 20100-20200 Resistance For A Sell-offThe German DAX is trading slowly for the last few days, here beneath the 20,000 level, which clearly acts as a strong resistance zone. However, I wouldn’t be surprised if more liquidations occur slightly higher, around the 20,100 mark. Because what I’m observing is a minor triangle within current recovery, and these patterns are typically in the middle of smaller trends. This suggests that we might still be missing one final leg in wave B to complete the recovery from December 20th low. After that, a strong bearish reversal could still show up on the DAX, possibly sometime this week. Be prepared and aware of the potential for a deeper correction ahead. GH

GER 40 Trade Log GER40 1H Long Setup: Entering at 0.5 FVG Level I'm eyeing a long position on the GER40 (DAX) based on the 1-hour timeframe. Here's the breakdown of my trade setup: 🔹 Entry Point: - Entering at the 0.5 level of the hourly Fair Value Gap (FVG). 🔹 Risk Management: - Risk: 1% of the trading account. - Risk-Reward Ratio (RRR): 1:2. - Stop Loss (SL): Placed below the 1H Kijun-sen line to account for potential volatility. 🔹 Trade Idea: - Expecting a retracement to the FVG before resuming the upward trend. - Aware that price action might slice through our SL, but willing to see how it unfolds. 📊 Technical Analysis: - Ichimoku Cloud: The price is above the cloud, indicating a bullish trend.
