Dax daily: 16 Jun 2020Yesterday's session showed us very clearly that buyers don't give out their gains of the past month. Dax was ascending since the open, without any pullback or correction. The price sliced through the 11 734 S/R zone without any sign of slowing down and closed the day up at 12 084 near its daily high. Important zones Resistance: 12 494 Support: 12 151 Statistics for today Detailed statistics in the Statistical Application Macroeconomic releases 11:00 CEST - German ZEW Economic Sentiment Today's session hypothesis Against all odds, we haven't witnessed the low volatility as expected. The gap today suggests the volatility is likely to stay in the markets today as well. Dax opened the day with an ascending gap, priced at 12 288. The price is now above the S/R zone of 12 151, which is now being eyed as the most important level for bullish traders. We anticipate a pullback towards this area where buyers are likely to show their strength. If there is no will to get to 12 151, the resistance of our interest lays at 12 494 which is a very nice target to be retested.

Dax daily: 12 Jun 2020We mentioned it in our analysis yesterday that previous days signalled a bearish correction and could further support sellers. This turned out valid and Dax headed south. The price even broke the support at 12 151 and almost reached the next support at 11 734. Important zones Resistance: 12 151 Support: 11 734 Statistics for today Detailed statistics in the Statistical Application Macroeconomic releases NIL Today's session hypothesis Dax opened the day with 166 points gap, correcting portion of yesterday's fall. We don't plan to trade the gap situation. The price is midway through yesterday's session and it doesn't provide good hints now. We are not fully clear about the direction, S/R zones are defined so we'll be eying either of those, depending on the initial momentum. Global Indices, including Dax, feared a second wave of pandemic yesterday and chances are that this market mood could further play a role in the upcoming days.

Dax daily: 11 Jun 2020Yesterday's session started with another sell-off and market participants closed the gap and retested the support at 12 494. The price then bounced back up but buyers were not strong enough to take Dax higher. The session closed at its daily low, right at the support zone of 12 494. Important zones Resistance: 12 494 Support: 12 151 Statistics for today Detailed statistics in the Statistical Application The gap is sized 217 points with low closing probability Macroeconomic releases NIL Today's session hypothesis Dax opens the session with 217 points sized descending gap. It is apparent that yesterday's bearish day sparked the downside momentum, propelled by the FOMC. After two weeks of growth, it is now clear the bullish trend ended. Dax is now priced 12 300 and the support of 12 151 is in the near vicinity and this is the first interesting S/R zone to take into account. As the resistance, we can mark the 12494 zone which is yesterday's support and the closing price of the session. The statistical probability of retesting this area today is low, yet this scenario can actually happen.

Dax daily: 10 Jun 2020A couple of times already, we mentioned that a correction is inevitable. That's exactly what we saw yesterday and our uptrend continuation bias along with the statistical probability of breaking previous day's High hadn't happened. Dax reacted with the sell-off right after the open and in correlation with the risk-off sentiment across the board. The downfall was held by the support level at 12 494 and the price was just slowly correcting its fall for the rest of the day. Important zones Resistance: 12 882 Support: 12 592, 12 494 Statistics for today Detailed statistics in the Statistical Application Macroeconomic releases 20:00 CEST - Fed Rate + FOMC Statement 20:30 CEST - FOMC Press Conference Today's session hypothesis Yesterday's drop was caused by the risk-off sentiment and profit-taking after long runs of global Indices. It was commodity currencies and Indices that were weakening, while the safe-haven currencies gained considerably. Overnight, Dax slightly corrected its drop as the ascending gap gives us a signal to retest previous days' VPOC. The price is in the middle of the range between the support of 12 494 and the resistance of 12 882 and we now need to monitor the price action impulses to further establish directional bias. However, we incline to buyer's favour in the short-term horizon.

Dax daily: 09 Jun 2020Yesterday's price action has, again, brought great profiting opportunities and Dax added another day to its bullish uptrend, even though the daily range was relatively standard. Right with the open of the European session, the price retested VPOC from Friday and continued consistently towards our resistance of 12 882 where it exemplarily bounced back lower and we were presented with another long entry opportunity on the pullback, below Friday's fair value. Dax eventually broke the resistance and closed at it's high at 12 934. Important zones Resistance: 13 119 Support: 12 592, 12 882 Statistics for today Detailed statistics in the Statistical Application The statistical probability of yesterday's High breakout is 90% Macroeconomic releases NIL Today's session hypothesis Dax has opened the day in the near vicinity of the 12 882 S/R zone. We see good chances right at the beginning of the session, especially for closing the gap towards yesterday's close and also retesting this value with the probable scenario of bullish continuation. The Statistical application also favours this thesis as the indication is for a 90% probability of yesterday's High breakout. We don't have any fundamental releases scheduled for the day hence we stick with our hypothesis uptrend continuation, best on pullbacks until we see some clear signs of a correction.

Dax daily: 08 Jun 2020Welcome to the new trading week. Our analysis on Friday turned out very successful, again. According to our statistical application, we saw the closure outside of the previous day range as this hypothesis had a high statistical probability. Dax continued in its bullish traction all the way towards the resistance level at 12 882 and the NFP print helped considerably in this. We haven't yet seen the correction. Important zones Resistance: 12 882, 13 119 Support: 12 592 Statistics for today Detailed statistics in the Statistical Application Macroeconomic releases NIL Today's session hypothesis A strong uptrend is underway and nothing suggests it should change. For some time already, we anticipate the correction, but Friday's NFP release hasn't really supported this vision, quite the contrary. There is a wave of optimism in the US markets but this is considered unsubstantiated if not false by many analysts. We'll only see the real economic impact of the coronavirus crisis with a delay. The US Indexes reacted to the labour data with obvious positivism and Nasdaq has printed another new record high, wiping out the entire crisis sell-off as if nothing happened. Dax is enjoying this correlated wave of markets optimism. The volume of orders has shifted higher to 12 800 and this week opened at this level, without a significant gap. Until we get some signs of a correction, we prefer to follow the trend with entries at pullbacks.
