TECHNICAL ANALYSIS
"The penultimate session of the week leaves us with the same taste as any of the previous ones, it is true that it closes away from the day's highs, but in reality it has no chartist implications of any kind," says José María Rodríguez, analyst technical staff of Bolsamania. The expert adds that the selective remains embedded within the triangle and, in addition, in anyone's area. Far from the control areas, above and below. This is 10,070 and 9,470 points respectively.
Banks, beyond punctual bounces like those we saw on Wednesday, "are still weak." And Telefónica does not help either. If the operator bounced 9% during the first sessions of July, it now accumulates a drop close to 6% from the highs of the rebound. Or what is the same, run the danger of losing what you earned during the first week of the month. "And let's cross our fingers because we do not perforate the support that is present in the annual minimums (7,16) .To do so will be a clear and more than worrisome sign of weakness because it would be drilling downwards which seems to be a mid-term bullish guideline. ", explains Rodríguez.
In addition, the fact that our European neighbors are close to important resistances leaves the door open for them to decide to take a well-deserved rest. "And do not doubt that if they decide to correct us, that we are much weaker, we will do it too, and maybe with greater violence, although unfortunately we are more than accustomed to the greater weakness of our Ibex", concludes José María Rodríguez.
