- The MACD line is significantly above the MACD signal line
- Bollinger analysis indicates upper Band® is at 16,200
While the DAX is on a 13 day bullish trend, Today's session might suggest a slow down — the DAX trades at 16,054, after ending Friday at 16,051.
The index has been trending positively for about 2 months. The DAX hit a significant low of 15.42 around 8 months ago, but has since recovered 104,000%.
The MACD is significantly above its signal line, which suggests the market is running out of bullish momentum and could revert to a negative outlook as bears regain control. The DAX's upper Bollinger Band® is at 16,200, suggesting that a downward move may follow.
Although price action remains in a stalemate, technical analysis suggests the DAX could be primed for a break to the downside.
