The short-term recovery is faltering.
W1 chart
The DAX / DE30 is retreating from the weekly high (14,227 points) and slipping into negative territory for today's trading session. On Tuesday, the index had turned before the EMA21 and started a recovery - however, this seems to be losing momentum.

H4 chart
The DAX / DE30 is falling and testing an important support - the local low at 14,116 points. A break below this could indicate further losses. However, the bears also need to get past the EMA21 - the moving average would be the last hope.
