The German DE40 benchmark is trading close to 0.57% lower during Tuesday's session and is currently testing a key support level set by the 50-day EMA (blue line on the chart). Dynamic breakthrough of these zones could theoretically open the way for further declines towards the 100-day EMA and 200-day EMA (purple and gold curves on the chart, respectively). The key resistance point, however, remains the local peak in the 19,000 point zone. Source: xStation
