The German leading index is trying to stabilize on Thursday.
D1 chart
The DE30 slipped below the 9-day moving average during yesterday's reversal, forming a bearish engulfing. Today, a first counter-reaction can already be observed. Despite the profit-taking, further price gains could be possible. Only a break below the support at 13,447 points would indicate an end of the short-term upward trend.

H4 chart
The smaller time unit shows that three important supports have been broken by the recent price decline - many buyers were stopped out as a result. The sell-off was stopped yesterday near the 61.8% retracement. However, a crossover of the moving averages could raise doubts that a new upward impulse will be started soon.
