TODAY’S FACTORS AND EVENTS

Allowing for a little latitude on how you define the neckline of the 2017/2018 head-and-shoulders pattern, the DAX is currently trading around it. If the pattern is to play out to its full potential, then the market should begin turning down very soon. The March low from last year is also in rough confluence. This period right now may turn out to be crucial when we look back at it sometime later on.

The DAX is currently above the 2011 trend-line it broke in December, but given the larger topping pattern remains intact, it’s not viewed a strongly bullish recapture of broken trend support. A material push above the neckline of the H&S formation, though, will, and at that juncture the market may want to rise a significant way higher.
