DAX. Over the past few weeks, DAX has been sliding slowly lower towards the support at around 18,191 but kept itself above the 55 daily moving average. A daily close below 18,191 could fuel a sell-off down to around 17,875, potentially down to 17,620 strong support.

A daily close above 18,785 is required for DAX to establish a new uptrend with upside potential to 19,250–19,300.

RSI is still showing positive sentiment but has also been warning about bullish trend exhaustion for quite some time.

GER40 CFD: Key support at 18,235. A break below could lead to a sell-off down to 17,868, possibly to strong support at around 17,612. A close above 18,780 will establish an uptrend with potential to 19,250–19,300.

EuroStoxx50 is trading in a tighter and tighter range. Breakout is needed.

A close above 5,082 is likely to send the index to new all-time highs towards 5,200.

A break (close likely not needed) below 4,942 is likely to push the index to test the key strong support at around 4,888. A daily close below 4,888 could fuel a sell-off down to around 4,800.

RSI is still showing positive sentiment, indicating breakout of the range is likely going to be to the upside. A close above the 60 threshold will confirm the bullish scenario with new all-time highs

EU50 CFD: support at 4,938. Break below could lead to a sell-off down to 4,849–4,810. A daily close above 5,082 will establish an uptrend with upside potential to 5,200, possibly higher
