Dax daily chart, September 21, 2017

The German index has gone sideways during the session on Wednesday, as we continue to hover above the €12,500 level. That’s a sign of stability after a very impulsive move to the upside, thereby giving me more confidence in the uptrend than ever. We have filled the gap from the open on Monday, and should continue to see buyers jump into this market and eventually break out. I know that the EUR/USD pair is going to be very important, but at the end of the day I think that a market that reflects a stronger European Union is what we are going to see here at the DAX. I think pullbacks offer nice buying opportunities, and that the €12,500 level should continue to offer support. However, if we were to break down below there I think there is more than enough support at the €12,300 level to keep the market afloat as well.

Short-term pullbacks offer buying opportunities

I believe that short-term pullbacks offer buying opportunities in a market that has been strong for some time. Ultimately, I believe that we are going to go looking for the €13,000 level, which is a large, round, psychologically significant number. With this in mind, I am a buyer of these dips, and I do think that eventually we break above the €13,000 level and continue to go much higher. The German economy has been showing signs of strength as the European Union has, and of course this is the bellwether of the European Union. Ultimately, it is not until we break down below the €12,250 level that I would consider selling this market, and I look at dips again, as a nice buying opportunity in a market that has been fairly reliable and extraordinarily stable over the last several sessions.
