Before we look at the DAX 30 technical analysis for today, let’s review the news. The U.S. Federal Reserve raised interest rates on Wednesday and left intact its plans to steadily tighten monetary policy, as it forecast that the U.S. economy would enjoy at least three more years of growth. Wednesday’s rate increase once again drew criticism from President Donald Trump, who has complained that the Fed’s actions are countering his efforts to boost the economy.
“I’d rather pay down debt or do other things, create more jobs. So I’m worried about the fact that they seem to like raising interest rates.”
From the newswires: Deutsche Bank has dismissed speculation that it might seek a merger as “fiction”, after media reports suggested Germany’s biggest lender might seek tie ups with Switzerland’s UBS or German peer Commerzbank. German institutes warn of recession if trade conflict escalates. Any escalation of trade friction involving the United States could cause a major recession in Germany and Europe. Germany and Saudi Arabia have agreed to end a prolonged diplomatic row that prompted the kingdom to pull its ambassador from Berlin and punish German firms operating in the country.

Interesting sell signal this morning, offered 4:1 and the trailing stop would be 280, so a good start to that move.
