Dax Technical Analysis 27/02/2015

Good morning traders!

Record highs reached on the Dax! Oh, wait, that’s not news anymore is it?!

So we are at the top of the rising trend channel on the daily chart, we are at the top of the rising trend channel on the 30 minute chart, we have seen a volume spike at 11350 on the 5 minute chart, we also have a potential fundamental catalyst today to ignite a pullback, with decisions on the Greece reforms. So there could be a bearish argument for today, especially also as it’s Friday and the end of the month so perhaps some profit taking in the futures market.

However the Greece reforms are expected to pass through easily enough, with only a small minority of German back-benchers opposing, so markets could continue the current rally.

I think 11500 is a ceiling for upside movement today and would surprised if we exceeded that, and to the downside if we pass 11230 then I would be very surprised if we closed below 11k.

Dax Volume Profile Analysis

A break under the naked vpoc allows us to test the lows of yesterday and if they break we could head fairly quickly down to the value area low

We are at the top of the rising channel, in between the weekly R1 and R2. We have so far eaten up resistance and driven forward, but today could support a pullback.
