While FTSE 100 remains range bound, DAX 40 and S&P 500 see days of losses
While FTSE 100 remains range bound, DAX 40 and S&P 500 see days of losses amid unchanged ECB rates and US earnings season.
FTSE 100 remains side-lined
The FTSE 100 continues to range trade but is seeing a series of lower highs along the 55-day simple moving average (SMA) at 8,263 which this week acted as resistance. On the flip side the May-to-July lows at 8,138 to 8,106 continue to act as solid support.
The July highs at 8,270 to 8,287 need to be overcome, for the late June peak at 8,314 to be reached. Similarly, a fall through and daily chart close below the 8,106 early July low may lead to the early- April-to-early-May lows at 8,095 to 8,017 being revisited.
DAX 40 sees four straight days of losses
The DAX 40's advance to last Friday’s 18,782 high, made close to the 18,786 early June peak, has been followed by four consecutive days of losses with perhaps a fifth being seen today with the 9 July low at 18,211 representing a possible downside target.
Minor resistance can be spotted along the 55-day SMA at 18,475.
