The German DE40 index is losing ground today, although the instrument is still in the support zone of the 50-day exponential moving average (blue line on the chart). As long as the D40 stays above this zone, the overall uptrend remains stable (as indicated by the exponential moving averages). The 14-day RSI indicator is returning to the 45-point area.
