DAX looks north as the short term bullish momentum holds strong above the major daily moving averages and an attempt to yearly highs might be the possible scenario for now. Today’s consolidation move just reaffirms the recent bullish momentum which started from August 15th lows (11,275) as the index breached the 50-day moving average and the 100-day MA. On the upside where traders shifted their attention, the immediate resistance is at 12,782 today’s high, a convincing break above might drive prices up to 12,970 the high from June 18th. Bulls will gain momentum if Dax Index returns inside the ascending channel which started back in December 2018.
