While the economic calendar is very thin for the start of the week, the picture for the DAX30 CFD nevertheless stays very interesting, and has the potential to see strong moves in either direction.
While we consider the DAX30 CFD to be technically neutral between 9,150/200 and 10,150 points on an hourly time-frame, we still favour a break out of the range on the downside, considering the recent correction into the end of March towards a bear market rally.
In fact, the main driver for the upwards run in Equities (especially US Equities) for the end of the first quarter could be a necessary rebalancing of portfolios by money managers, who need to step up their Equity exposure and selling of bonds in order to maintain their allocation targets.
The resulting “problem” is obvious: after this “rebalancing” demand diminishes, and with the latest bad numbers from the labour market showing that the number of Americans filing for unemployment benefits jumped to 6.6 million in the week of March 28, the failure to recapture the mark of 10,000 points last week clearly points to bears being still in control of the price action and the advantage remaining clearly on the short side.
Free Reports:
In the short-term, the main focus stays on the region around 9,150/200 points. If we get to see a sustainable drop below that level, a re-test of the region around 8,000 points, probably a drop even lower stays a serious option in the days to come.
On the other hand: above 9,150/200 points a push back towards and even above 10,000 points respectively 10,150 points stays on the table:
