GER30 trade ideas
2024-05-21 - a daily price action after hour update - daxGood Evening and I hope you are well.
overall market comment
Markets went mostly flat today. Nasdaq printed a new ath on another low volume day. Unless markets strongly break above the highs or lows, very uneventful price action. Play the range until it clearly is not working anymore. SP500 printed a tripple top now and selling it again is a reasonable trade.
dax
comment: Bears making lower highs and lower lows but they are too weak to push the market below meaningful lower lows. Bulls are not too eager to print yet another ath and so we chop inside they given range. My head & should pattern lives as long as market stays below 18835, which is 15 points from when I wrote this, so low probability. For now we continue to oscillate around the 1h 20ema but I think the daily 20ema is close enough now for more algos to buy it, for another ATH or another melt-up to my weekly targets.
current market cycle: trading range - bulls broke 19000 but no follow through.
key levels: 18700 - 19000 - below 18700 is 18400 next and above 18840 is 19000 or much much higher again
bull case: Bulls kept it above 18700 which is still uber bullish. Next they will probably break above the bear trend line from ath and above 18840 for retest of the highs. Invalid below 18800.
bear case: Still no gap close to 18850 and we are making lower highs and lower lows. Bears need to step in above 18800 to stay inside the drawn triangle. Bulls closed above the 15 and 1h 20ema, which is not good for the bears. They need strong momentum around EU open to break below again. Bears also have going for them, that US closed green today and retest the highs or made newer highs, while dax made lower highs and lower lows. Their next target below 18800 is 18700 and then the daily ema around 18650. Invalid above 18840.
short term: Neutral 18700 - 18840. Head & Shoulders has still a very low chance of breaking down to around 18400 but don’t bet on then unless you see many strong consecutive bear bars tomorrow.
medium-long term: My long term outlook stays bearish and I expect at least a -20% correction in 2024. Medium term is 17100 while I think we can touch the big bull trend line starting 2022-10 around 16700 in 2024. —unchanged
trade of the day: Long from the EU open was ok, since bears could not close the gap to Friday. Bullish enough for target 18900ish.

overall market comment
Markets moved mostly sideways today but commodities are on a tear, except for Oil. We can expect more volatility on the commodities side, since they are in play and everyone want’s some. Be humble to net get caught on the wrong side and have strong momentum on your side. For stock indexes I expect either another leg up which could start tomorrow or a bigger pull-back to the daily 20 ema.
dax
comment: Tight trading range 18800 - 18890. Absolutely neutral inside that range. Bulls only managed to get to around 50% pull-back from ath to 18700, which is weak but since bears could not even close the gap to Friday, that’s even more pathetic. Expecting more sideways until the triangle from the right shoulders breaks.
current market cycle: trading range - bulls broke 19000 but no follow through.
key levels: 18700 - 19000 - below 18700 is 18400 next.
bull case: Bulls keeping this at the highs and 300 points above the daily 20ema. As long as they keep this above 18700, they are in full control and higher highs are possible. For tomorrow I expect they will close the gap to 18850 and try higher again. The small bear trend line is their next resistance.
bear case: Bears kept it below the 50% pb most recent low to high. Market formed a head & shoulders pattern which fails more than it breaks down. It’s a continuation pattern and bears do not have the odds on their side here. They need to close the gap to 18792 and then retest 18700. For now I can’t see the market breaking that level without any catalyst.
short term: Bearish below 18880 and bullish above for test of 19000 or higher. Head & Shoulders break down confirmed with 15m close below 18700 for target 18400 or lower.
medium-long term: My long term outlook stays bearish and I expect at least a -20% correction in 2024. Medium term is 17100 while I think we can touch the big bull trend line starting 2022-10 around 16700 in 2024. —unchanged
trade of the day: Long from the EU open was ok, since bears could not close the gap to Friday. Bullish enough for target 18900ish.

202421 - a weekly price action market recap and outlook - daxdax cfd
Quote from last week:
bull case: Bears gave up since Monday and we melted 800 points higher. I got 2 measured move targets above, 19280 and 19650. Technically we should see a pull-back first and depending on how deep it is, we can calculate new targets. I think next week everything will be determined by the PPI and CPI prints. If they come in low, I think it’s very likely that we will see the 20000.
comment: Got that pull-back on Monday but weak and shallow. Bears tried again on Tuesday but bulls bought the ppi spike and rallied to a new ath 19006. Thursday was an surprisingly strong bear day and we sold off for 230 points and bulls could not get it much higher than 18800 on Friday. Both of my wave theses are still valid and Monday or Tuesday will determine the outcome. I won’t be a perma bear here and early again. Completely open to bulls melting up for my measured move targets or even 20000.
current market cycle: Bull trend or trading range. If bulls keep going past 19000, obviously a bull trend but if they fail to print much higher than 19100, this was just a higher high in a trading range 17600 - 19000.
key levels: 18400 / 20000
bull case: Bulls got a new ath and market sold off for 200 points to close the week below 18900 which was the second weekly rejection of that price level. Bulls need to keep this pull-back shallow, inside the small bull channel and above the daily 20ema for continuation. The bull channel and the daily ema are close enough for me to think we either go sideways to touch them or dip and bounce. That would be a perfect two legged correction and odds would favor the bulls for a third leg up. Invalidation price would be somewhere between 18500 - 18600 and then the big bull trend line has to hold if we get there or the trend is done and we are in a trading range.
bear case: Last time we got here to a new ath, we pulled-back for 1300 points, very shortly after. Bears printed one good looking bearish engulfing candle on Thursday but for more bulls to begin taking profits, they need consecutive bear bars closing near the lows. If they can’t do that and market goes sideways, bulls will take it as a buy signal because after such a strong rally, odds favor another leg up. Right now market printed an expanding triangle and a two legged pullback near the bull trend line and ema. All of those patterns are buy signals. All of them can fail and we sell-off but from an odds perspective, bears are not favored until they do more. Invalidation for bears is above 18900ish.
outlook last week: “Pull-back should happen but longs are favored until bears make lower lows and break the 1h 20ema. I updated my daily chart but it’s only a very rough guess. Inflation prints will dominate the markets this week and I will give daily updates.”
→ Last Sunday we traded 18894 and now we are at 18805. Two-legged pull-back happened as laid out.
short term: Can’t be anything but neutral with if-statements. If we strongly break below 18600 and bears keep the selling pressure high, this higher high double top could have been it and we get 18300-18400 next. If bulls (they are slightly favored) manage to break above 18900 again, we will most probably retest the ath or go directly into the third leg up or W5.
medium-long term: Time runs thin on my -20 to -30% correction target so I need to adjust the timeline. I’m confident we will print 17000 over the next 2-3 Months but 16600 could be tough so that could happen early 2025 as well. Will update this along the way. —unchanged
current swing trade: Shorted 18971 on 2024-05-16 and took profits on 2024-05-17. Will update this in the daily after hour updates from next week on.
Chart update: Updated wave thesis slightly and removed the first two-legged correction because it does not add value from here on.

Chart update: Updated wave thesis slightly and removed the first two-legged correction because it does not add value from here on.
DAX may threaten breakout pointIntraday Update: After hitting the 127% extension this week, the German DAX may be at risk of testing the breakout point at 18568 which traders will be watching for a close above/below for the week.
Strong Support: DAX Ready to Climb AgainWith the remarkable surge of the past few weeks, the DAX nearly reached the 19,000-point mark. However, just before reaching it, the momentum faded, leading to a period of weakness. Now, a strong hammer candlestick is visible in an important support area. Therefore, it can be assumed that the correction is now coming to an end and the DAX will once again approach recent highs.
DAX Another perfect sell opportunity emerges like the last one.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 rejection of May 19 2023, which pulled back to the 1D MA50 (blue trend-line).
The 1D MACD is also inside a similar Falling Wedge pattern and will confirm the sell signal once it makes a Bearish Cross. Our Target now is 18350.

overall market comment
Bulls rallied to another ath where many of them took profits and bears began shorting after a lower high. The selling on bigger volume into the close is a sell signal going into tomorrow. Bulls have to break out of the formed bear channels to make bears doubt the highs might be in. Since tomorrow is Opex, everyone is max bullish and VIX is at the lows, we could be in for a surprise tomorrow.
dax
comment: Bear trend from before the open, after Globex made a new ath 19006. Since it’s the end of the week, the open, low and high prices of the week are important to watch. I always mark them on my charts when they occur.
current market cycle: trading range - bulls broke 19000 but no follow through, if we close this week below 18900, we got a higher high but inside a trading range and odds favor that we trade down to 18000 again.
key levels: 18738 - 19006
bull case: Bulls began to take profits and today’s selling was without any stop which makes me believe that big institutions are off-loading their positions while they can. Low of the week was 18738 and that should be bulls last hope for tomorrow. If they can not hold that level, we probably trade down to 18600 and below that is 18400.
bear case: Bears created a sell signal on the daily chart going into tomorrow. The weekly and monthly charts now show big tails above and if we can close below 18900, that would be a second rejection of that level on the weekly chart. Last time we made a new ath we sold off for 1280 points so that is my base assumption for the next weeks.
short term: Bearish - But can see a retest of the highs if bulls break strongly above the 1h 20ema tomorrow. 18738 must hold or we could crash down.
medium-long term: My long term outlook stays bearish and I expect at least a -20% correction in 2024. Medium term is 17100 while I think we can touch the big bull trend line starting 2022-10 around 16700 in 2024. —unchanged
trade of the day: EU open could not get a close above the 15m 20ema and had many tails above bars. Could have sold anywhere with stop new ath.
