MTU Aero Engines gains after Q4 2021 earnings release
European stock market indices are trading higher on signs of tensions de-escalating in the Eastern Europe. Russia announced yesterday that some of its troops will be withdrawn from the Ukrainian border. The announcement triggered a risk-on rally. However, NATO said today that there are no evidence of any withdrawal actually taking place and instead, the number of Russian troops near the border continues to increase.

Index jumped at the start of the European cash trading session today and attempted to break above the downward trendline. However, the attempt was a failed one and index started to move lower. DE30 has already erased all of the gains and trades flat on the day. Should the downward move deepen, the near-term support to watch can be found in the 15,330 pts area and is marked with the previous price reactions. Key support zone ranges near 15,000 pts and serves as the lower limit of the descending triangle pattern (aforementioned trendline serves as the upper one).
