The German benchmark index rises by a further 0.5% on Thursday and seems to continue the recovery for a third day in a row.
D1 chart
The DE30 has already gained more than 4% since the weekly low reached on Monday morning. The next important resistance for the bulls is the 61.8% retracement of the correction that started four weeks ago (15,760 points), which has not been sustainably broken so far despite several attempts in December.

H1 chart
In the hourly chart, the short-term structure within the broader upward impulse is bullish again after the decline below the December 3 low turned out to be a false breakout (see bullish hammer candle). To confirm the trend, the index would have to overcome the high of December 7 (15,842 points), while below the local low (blue line at 15,405 points), selling pressure could increase again.
