TECHNICAL ANALYSIS
José María Rodríguez, technical analyst of Bolsamanía, indicates that "the candle we left this Wednesday, closing the bullish gap on this Tuesday (9,726) is without a doubt a sign of weakness". In his opinion, "everything points to that we test the support of the 9,640 points, the minimums of last week, and if this does not hold, we do not rule out, at all, a return to the base of the triangle, now at 9,475 points. "
"Technically, I want to highlight the fact that Santander has turned to the downside after caressing the resistance zone that presented at 4.77 euros (clavicular line of a potential formation back up.) At the moment it can't attack it , or what is the same has been turned downward in resistances and this is not exactly a sign of strength ", adds the expert.
"We will also see what this Thursday holds for Telefonica when it confesses (before the opening) its results before the market." It is vitally important that the support that is presented in the 7,16 is respected (especially in weekly candles). This is where the operator recently bounced confirming what appears to be a long-term bullish direction, which suggests that drilling it would undoubtedly be a new and more than worrying sign of weakness. " Thus, the expert emphasizes thatthis Thursday we will be also attentive, among other things, to the reactions of Repsol, Bankia and Bankinter before the publishing of their results.
