Sustained recovery proves difficult.
D1 chart
The DE30 slips on Thursday, testing the psychological 12,000 mark for the third time this week. Yesterday, the downward price swing was seen as a short-term buying opportunity, but it has not changed the long-term trend direction - which is downward.

H4 chart
The DE30 rose above the local high yesterday, raising hopes of a stronger upward move. However, the environment remains bearish as the index is trading below the moving averages and resistance at 12,434 holds for now. A break above these hurdles could change the trend direction (in H4).
