Indices see mixed trading after PMI numbers
While indices have held on to most of their gains, European markets have come under some pressure.
FTSE 100
The FTSE 100 consolidated its gains from Monday, holding firm above 7050, and now looks in a position to resume its move higher back towards 7200. Sellers will need to put the price back below 7050 to provide a new rationale for a short-term bearish view.
DAX
Here the index fought off a dip below 15,600 on Tuesday and has held its ground, and similarly a move back towards 15,800 looks likely unless we can see a reversal that returns the price to 15,500 and lower.
S&P 500
The S&P 500 is back at a record high, and momentum seems likely to carry it higher from its current level. Sellers have been unable to gain any control over the index since the beginning of the week, leaving buyers firmly in charge. New record highs seem likely from here.
