TECHNICAL ANALYSIS
Bolsamanía technical analyst José María Rodríguez affirmed that “we still can’t force our way upward, but Thursday’s session was very interesting and leaves us with a good feeling. The reason is none other than the fact that the upward trend has been filled in from the 24 April. We can’t sing victory until we see a similar movement from the rest of Europe.”
“At midday, just when it looked like they would go in search of that gap (12,100 in the Dax futures and 3377 in CAC 40 futures), money entered the market in the support zone at the lows of last week. Once again they remained at the doors of the upward trend.”
