DAX gained ~4% in September and the month ended close to the yearly resistance level of 12450. A clear trend in the market can not be identified and technically the picture reminds more of range trading than trend trading.

DAX gained ~4% in September and the month ended close to the yearly resistance level of 12450. A clear trend in the market can not be identified and technically the picture reminds more of range trading than trend trading.

The long and mid term trend is still positive, measured with the moving averages EMA6 and EMA12. However, the technical and investor sentiment is not that bullish at the moment, which favours the scenario that range trading will continue. Historically October has been a bullish month for the DAX.

DAX’ longer term trend is still bullish measured with the moving averages EMA6 and EMA12, where the shorter average EMA6 is above EMA12. There is a tough resistance level located at 12500. The closest and most important support level is located at 12260 and it is a good idea to be careful on the long side if we start to trade below this level.
