TECHNICAL ANALYSIS
"Now we can say that the bullish gap on Wednesday from a week ago has been filled almost entirely," explains José María Rodríguez, technical analyst of 'Bolsamanía'. The expert adds, however, that "if it does not close, the truth is that the trading bias, despite the side of the last few days, is still more bullish than bearish". Another thing would be, according to the analyst, if it closes, and for this the Ibex should close below 8,989 points. Above, the bearish guideline passes through the 9,400 points, "control zone that will not be easy to overcome", according to Rodríguez.
"In the shortest term it is observed that the Ibex is reacting somewhat better than its European neighbors," adds the expert. From the lows of October, the Ibex accumulates a 5% increase compared to 3% from the Dax 30 and the Euro Stoxx 50.
