However, slight declines prevail at the moment. The German DAX is currently losing 0.32%, while the French CAC40 is losing 0.1% and the British FTSE 100 is down 0.2%. The DE40 contract is losing, although it is still hovering close to its all-time high (ATH), maintaining a dynamic upward trend.

The German DE40 index is retesting its all-time high (ATH) and maintaining a dynamic upward trend set by exponential moving averages. The most important support point in the near term remains the 50-day EMA (blue line on the chart). As long as it is not broken, it seems that the upward trend is unwavering. It is worth noting, however, that the 14-day RSI indicator is hovering around 70 points, which from a technical perspective could be considered a textbook overbought. Source: xStation
