Technical Analysis – GER 30 index recovers a little; negative risks remain

Posted on October 22, 2020 at 2:37 pm GMT

Germany 30 stock index (Cash) looks to be fading further despite recently finding footing at the 12,339 level. Painting a deteriorating picture are the negatively charged Ichimoku lines, one of which has capped additional progress from the price bounce.
