TECHNICAL ANALYSIS

According to José María Rodríguez, technical analyst of Bolsamanía, over the resistance of 9,900 points, the Ibex will find the next one in the 9,988 points and over that the falling space of 10,211 points. “Even when the Ibex bounces back to 10,200, this would fit in a simple bounce that is proportionate to the important previous falls that forced the index to lose over 1,00 points in a week and a half”, points out Rodrígeuz. “If that bounce back is more than a bounce, only time will tell”, he highlights.

In his opinion, the Ibex has left the falls behind and it should respect the support of the two week lows at 9,580 points.
