DAX eyes breakout to 25KFollowing last week's powerful rally, the DAX’s overall uptrend remains intact, with this week's consolidation serving as a healthy pause for momentum to reset. As long as short term support around 23,750 holds, any pullbacks could be supported by the bullish traders looking to chase momentum, rather than signs of weakness. Even if the index dips a bit lower, this wouldn't necessarily invalidate the bullish breakout, but ideally the 23800-24000 area will need to hold.
Traders will be watching for indications of renewed upward momentum as the week unfolds. A breakout above the trend resistance of the mini consolidation pattern could pave the way for July high near 24,650, which appears increasingly likely. And above that level, we could see the onset of a rally towards 25,000 and potentially higher.

October historically volatile for European indices

📌 CONCLUSION & BIAS
Overall Bias: CAUTIOUSLY BULLISH 🟢 (60% probability)
Bullish Case (60%):
The primary trend remains intact with price above all major moving averages and strong cloud support. The consolidation near highs is healthy, and a resolution to the upside targeting 23,750-24,000 is the path of least resistance. Elliott Wave structure suggests one more push higher to complete Wave 5.
Bearish Case (20%):
Declining volume, RSI divergence, and approach of major resistance (Gann, harmonic PRZ) suggest caution. A failed breakout above 23,500 could trigger a correction to 23,000-22,800. Wyckoff distribution signs require monitoring.
Neutral/Range Case (20%):
Continued consolidation between 23,200-23,500 for 1-2 weeks is possible as the market digests recent gains and awaits economic catalysts.
Best Trading Approach:
Intraday: Range trade 23,280-23,450 until breakout
Swing: Wait for pullback to 23,200-23,280 for optimal risk:reward longs
Position: Maintain core long exposure with stops below 22,800
Key Success Factors:
Patience: Wait for high-probability setups at defined levels
Discipline: Honor stop losses without exception
Flexibility: Adapt to price action; market is always right
Confirmation: Require volume and indicator alignment before major trades
🎓 FINAL RECOMMENDATIONS
For Aggressive Traders:
Trade both sides of the range
Quick profits (50-100 points)
Tight stops (50-80 points)
High frequency (5-10 trades/week)
For Conservative Traders:
Wait for 23,200-23,280 pullback
Larger position size with better risk:reward
Wider stops (150-200 points)
Target 23,750+ for 1:3+ reward
Low frequency (1-2 trades/month)
For Long-Term Investors:
Accumulate on any dip toward 23,000
Hold through minor volatility
Target 24,500+ over 3-6 months
Stop only on weekly close <22,600

GER40 Loading the Break – Big Move Coming!Hey guys,
I’ve analyzed the GER40 index for you. Right now, it’s too early to drop a clear target—the price is stuck in a consolidation zone. It’s either gonna break down or break out. Once that move happens, I’ll share the exact target right away.
For now, just waiting on the breakout.
Also, every single like from you guys is what keeps me motivated to keep sharing these analyses. Big thanks to everyone supporting me with those likes.
DAX, FTSE Update: Bears Regain ControlMomentum has finally come my way, which has seen bears reclaim control of the DAX and FTSE 100. And I suspect they'll retain control for a while longer. Today I update my levels and outlook for both markets.

DEX 30 - Forecast🕰 Weekly
Sitting right on top of that weekly demand (22,700–23,200). Buyers are trying to defend, but if this floor gives way, we’re diving deeper. BOS is still intact from the upside, but momentum looks tired.
📉 Daily
Heavy drop straight into demand. Now the real question → do we bounce back into 23,700–24,000 supply for a cheeky rejection… or do we crack lower straight away? 👀
⏱ 8H
Clean ChoCH to the downside. Market tapped demand, so a little relief rally is on the cards. But watch that supply zone — sellers waiting up there with bags packed.
🎯 Outlook
Short-term → bounce into supply ✅
Mid-term → bearish pressure still in control 🔻
Lose 22,700 and we could easily hunt liquidity towards 22,000–22,300.
Bias : Short-term pullback → Mid-term bearish
DAX potential breakout immanent While most other major indices have been busy breaking records, the DAX has not been doing much, instead continuing to consolidate its big gains from the past when it was outshining other markets. But with sentiment remaining positive towards European and global markets, the risks remain skewed to the upside, especially given that the long-term support area of around 23,500 is holding firming. The index needs to clear short-term resistance in the 100-point band between 23,800 to 23,900 to potentially trigger follow-up technical buying above that zone. That's the bullish signal I am certainly waiting for now.

DAX Triangle giving a strong Buy Signal.2.5 months ago (see chart below), we issued a buy signal on DAX (DE40), which hit our 24600 Target within 2 weeks:
This time the price finds itself at the bottom (Higher Lows trend-line) of a 3-month Triangle. Every Bullish Leg of this pattern was confirmed after the price closed a candle above its 4H MA50 (blue trend-line), something the index did 2 days ago.
As a result, we turn bullish again here on DAX, targeting the top (Lower Highs trend-line) of the pattern at 24400.

DAX gearing up for a breakout?The lengthy consolidation on the DAX means the German index is no longer technically overbought on the weekly and lower time frames. The monthly is still above 70.0 but with other global indices looking strong, the DAX could be about to break higher again.
For confirmation i would like to see a break above the bearish trend line and ideally a move above the next band of resistance between 23,900 to 24,100. If and when the DAX clears this area, any rounded retest of this zone from above could potentially offer a decent bounce trade, targeting new record highs.
Meanwhile key support continues to remain near the old highs of around 24,480 or so (shaded in blue).

DAX consolidation suported at 23950The DAX remains in a bullish trend, with recent price action indicating a potential oversold rally within the broader uptrend.
Support Zone: 23400 – a key level from previous consolidation. Price is currently testing or approaching this level.
A bullish rebound from 23400 would confirm ongoing upside momentum, with potential targets at:
23950 – initial resistance
24116 – psychological and structural level
24250 – extended resistance on the longer-term chart
Bearish Scenario:
A confirmed break and daily close below 23400 would weaken the bullish outlook and suggest deeper downside risk toward:
23250 – minor support
23094 – stronger support and potential demand zone
Outlook:
Bullish bias remains intact while the Dax40 holds above 23950. A sustained break below this level could shift momentum to the downside in the short term.

DAX 1H — Clean break of the descending trendline from 22–29 Aug.Context
• Price has been capped by a well-defined descending trendline (orange-tagged lower highs) since last week.
• Into month-end, the selloff lost momentum and compressed into a falling wedge/descending triangle against a 23,93x–23,94x demand (marked by EQL/“weak low”).
• We’ve now impulsed through the local trendline and into the prior 1H supply band, flipping it to potential support.
Structure & confluence on the break
• Multiple BOS/CHoCH prints inside the wedge signaled absorption/basing before the break.
• The breakout occurs around the 0.618 pullback area of the last minor leg, with a neat cluster of equal lows below (liquidity left behind), and room to the upside until the next heavy area: the higher, older trendline / “Strong High” zone.
• Measured from the wedge height, the projection aligns with ~24,387 (shown on chart).
Plan (not financial advice)
• Bias: Long on breakout and/or retest of the broken trendline / prior supply.
• Entry zone: 23,970–23,986 (retest/acceptance above the break).
• Invalidation: 1H close back below 23,930–23,937 (back inside the wedge and under the micro base).
• Protective stop: 23,902 (beneath the “weak low” and wedge base).
• Targets:
• TP1: 24,060 (first 1H supply & dashed mid-range).
• TP2: 24,180–24,220 (prior EQH/dashed line).
• TP3: 24,300 (round number & prior reaction).
• Final: 24,387 (confluence with the higher trendline; your blue arrow).
• R:R guide: From ~23,980 entry to 23,902 stop is ~78 pts risk; to 24,387 is ~+407 pts → ~5.2R if full target prints.
• Management: Once price accepts above ~23,986, consider moving to BE; trail under each new 1H swing low as we stair-step up. Failure to hold 23,970 on the retest = stand aside and reassess.
Alt (bearish) scenario
• A sharp rejection from 24,06x–24,18x and a close back under 23,930 would turn the break into a fake-out, exposing 23,880 → 23,840 and, if that fails, the deeper demand around 23,80x.
Heads-up (event risk this week)
• Eurozone/Germany PMIs (Mon–Tue), Euro area flash HICP (Tue), Germany Factory Orders (Fri), and US NFP (Fri) can all inject volatility—size appropriately and be wary around release times. CFI:GER30

Macroeconomic & Policy Considerations
European Central Bank Policy Impact
The ECB's monetary policy stance remains crucial for DAX performance. Recent ECB decisions show the Governing Council decided to lower the three key ECB interest rates by 25 basis points in March 2025, with domestic price pressures continuing to ease, with wages growing more slowly. This dovish stance supports equity valuations and German corporate profitability.
German Economic Outlook
The German economic environment presents mixed signals. While economic activity is expected to broadly stagnate in 2025 and trade tensions are set to significantly weigh on exports, there are positive factors including Germany's fiscal stimulus supporting better growth prospects.
Eurozone Growth Projections
The broader eurozone context shows Real GDP projected to grow by 0.9% in 2025, 1.1% in 2026 and 1.3% in 2027, with EA GDP growth to average 0.9% in 2025 and accelerate to 1.3% in 2026.
Key Risk Factors
1. Trade Policy Uncertainty: Trade policy uncertainty over recent months is expected to reduce global growth
2. Global Trade Tensions: Ongoing US-China trade dynamics affecting European exports
3. ECB Policy Divergence: Potential policy normalization pressures
4. Geopolitical Risks: Eastern European tensions and energy security concerns

comment: Neutral. I do think this could become a giant bull trap but confirmation is only below 24200. For now it’s best to be neutral since we are in the middle of the triangle. Not much more to read into this so don’t try looking at this for hours and make stuff up. I’d be surprised if we go above 24600.
current market cycle: trading range
key levels for next week: 24000 - 24750
bull case: Bulls need a higher high to open the possibility of re-testing 24700+. Bulls can argue it’s a two-legged pullback (ABC correction) on the daily chart but that’s a tough argument since the market has basically gone nowhere since early June.
Invalidation is below 24200ish
bear case: Bears need something below 24200, until then it’s above two trend lines, daily ema and bears have not made lower lows since start of August.
Invalidation is above 24600
short term: As neutral as can be. Only interested in shorts really but not after Friday. Need to see this becoming a bull trap and bigger selling pressure again.
medium-long term from 2025-08-24: 23000 is my target for the next weeks but for that the market has to stay below 23600.
DAX is forming an interesting short-term patternLooking at the technical picture of DAX, we can see that the German index seems to be preparing for a breakout. Maybe Powell's speech could be that catalyst? Let's find out.
