A small pullback could be observed overnight and the index made a retest of the aforementioned zone as a support. Decline was halted at a 50-hour moving average (green line) so far. There are a few levels to watch depending on how the day unfolds. Should we see a drop below the 50-hour moving average, two near-term levels to watch are the lower limit of the Overbalance structure at 13,165 pts (yellow box) and a local low at 13,115 pts (breaking below would break uptrend structure of higher lows). Breaking below those levels could hint a short-term bearish trend reversal. On the other hand, in case bulls regain ground, the first near-term resistance can be found in the 13,350 pts area (recent local high). Final resistance is marked by the potential range of a break from the ascending triangle pattern in the 13,640 pts area.

Such a move would not only make it more flexible for employees but would also allow for significant cost savings for the Bank. However, Deutsche Bank waits with final decision until new work-from-home laws are finalized in countries where it operates.
