TECHNICAL ANALYSIS

"Third consecutive session in which our selective closes without pain or glory, without giving us any sign of anything," says José María Rodríguez, technical analyst at Bolsamanía. Actually, we are still inside the triangle (decreasing maximums and increasing minimums) and, also, in nobody's zone. Halfway between the base of the same (support) and the upper part of this (resistance). "And only when the price breaks in one direction or another will we have some clue as to what the next big trending movement may be like," he explains.

Thus, at the top we have the resistance of 9,890 points (bearish gap) and above and of greater draft the area of ​​9,970-10,000 points. With extension to 10,070 points, where the upper part of the triangle would pass. And below we have the area of ​​9,430-9,450 points.

"The bad thing about the current situation is that the rest of our neighbors continue to climb positions," says the expert. With hardly any noise, but they all quote in the monthly maximums. And while they approach the first important resistance we are unable to follow them. And when it is not because of the banks (which continue to be weak) it is because ofTelefónica. "And in the meantime, the time and the opportunity to move away from the danger levels, that is, the same as almost always," he concludes.
