The count is calling for more downside below the recent lows...

Dax is back on the 1x1.5 line (image 1), which is the average line of velocity that I think the market will meander along for the next year (until the next great crash).

Image 2 shows that the market tracks the 1x1.5 line for at least 1.5 years before a break to the 1x2 line and the market corrects.

I favour long positions at this level. It may go lower, but I think it will eventually track along the 1x1.5 line.

i'm having a bullish bias, especially if the price can keep above the .618 Fibo (Oct 2014 lows - April 2015 highs) @9,900...though VW is getting hit hard @ 10% due to that emission scandal...
best,

what i am noticing is a parallel relation between DAX and Oil, correct me if i am wrong but it is obvious to me that they move up and down together .
can someone explain what makes DAX ( or maybe stocks in general ) be connected with Oil prices?

This may help, an excerpt of what Delta1 sent to me:
"K+S is the only real basic resources company in the Dax30. EON and RWE have oil services, but core business is energy production (coal, gas, nuclear power, clean energy). BASF has oil and gas service too - but oil and gas is also an input factor for their large chemical production unit.

Dax30 is largely importing commodities for its manufacturing and services industry, so lower input factor costs are better for the economy. "

The correlation matrix (page 15 attached), has the Dax30 and Oil having a very low positive relationship, which makes sense fundamentally.

Hope this helps.

I'm having some issues with this broker's charts and had to use anotherone to get a DJIA chart open.

For information, here's what I've been doing. All except the retrace buy were worth ~50 ticks and were simple KISS entries as I've posted before. BFN

A heads-up for today: Volkswagen is trading -16% to -18%, so this heavily skews the movement of Dax compared to other European indices. The potential multibillion fine from the American EPA will keep the stock (and the Dax) down for the day.

EDIT: The other car manufacturers Daimler and BMW are also trading -3 to -4% so not a happy day for the Dax.

Just realised this... This is not good for the Dax and VW.

"As many as 482,000 diesel-powered cars are said to be affected. With fines theoretically costing as much as $30,000 per vehicle, VW could face a bill totaling more than $18 billion (16 billion euros).

EPA also ordered VW to fix the cars at its own expense, which would likely add further costs. "

Considering H1 2015 profit for VW was EU7.6Bn, then this potential fine and recall work will wipe out its profit for the year.
