Thoughts on the DAX pushing up against 18,700
Been watching the DAX the past few sessions and it feels like it's really struggling to break cleanly above this 18,700 area. We've seen a couple of probes higher, but nothing sustained. It's almost like it's forming a bit of a minor double top on the hourly, or at least a significant resistance level. I'm wondering if we see some consolidation or even a pull-back if it can't find clear buying momentum above that point. The scenario where I'd reconsider this is a decisive close well above 18,750 on decent volume; otherwise, it just feels heavy here. Curious what others are seeing.
I'm seeing similar action. That 18,700 level has been a clear sticking point. It'll be interesting to see if institutional buying steps in to push it through, or if we consolidate further before the next leg.
