A bottom picker. Although this is showing signs of bottoming now, but as always, confirmation is needed, so another small pull back now to a fib level, either the 61.8 or the 76.4 could be a good place to have a shot at a long.

Today's low of 9,747pts, was very close to the 23.6% Fib of Swing Low 8,700pts to Swing High of 10,070pts.

It was also the bottom of the trend channel that I have.

Let's see if it holds.

Looks a bit bearish though, MACD, and beneath 7sma currently on Daily.

Daily TF MACD suggests we go lower today, but not really sure, as upper trend channel still intact.

I'd be looking for these potential supports if we do venture down at XO:

9,872.70pts: 5M - 200 SMA
9,868.30pts: 1H - 20 SMA
9,831.50pts: 1H - 200 SMA
9,742.60pts: Daily - 20 SMA
9,740.90pts: Fib 61.8%
9,678.50pts: S1

Bullish start to pre-trade hour... could be a Frankfurt Fakie, but who knows, EURUSD weakening nicely.

Hi stylinex, how are the markets different on options expiry day?

Observing the market and so far, DAX has been trading in a range today.

No trades for me today. I want to wait for a good trade opportunity. Will enter when I see one. Watch this week and see what happens next week.

Well said, price should come to us and then we should be fussy whether we trade or not...

Usually the DAX runs 2-3x what it does on days like today where the DOW is up over 100 points but you can see that today and yesterday this was not the case.
