DE30 retreats after setting a new high

On Tuesday, German Index DAX opened higher after a long weekend due to the Labor Day on Monday. Today's stock market session in Europe brought a continuation of the uptrend. The German DAX (DE30) started strongly after the opening bell and set new highs for this year. However, the momentum did not last long, and a few minutes after the session started, profit-taking occurred, resulting in the DE30 being traded in negative territory.

From the technical analysis point of view, on the chart a false breakout above the consolidation level occurred. After DE30 dropped below the zone around 16,060 points, the decline accelerated and the price touched the EMA100 moving average, where the bulls came into play. If the moving average is defended and a hammer formation appears on the H1 chart, there is a possibility of a retest of resistance levels around 16,060 points. On the other hand, if the formation is invalidated and the price drops below the moving average, a further decline towards last week's lows around 15,830 points cannot be ruled out.
