Daily Forecast - 12 January 2016

Eurostoxx March contract

Eurostoxx

EuroStoxx first resistance at 3031/35 is only minor but above here targets strong resistance at 3065/69. Not a surprise that this is the main challenge for bulls today but be ready to buy a break above to target 3090 then strong resistance at 3115/20 for an excellent selling opportunity.

first support at 3035/31 but below here look for 3017/15 then 2995 before a retest of test's low at the 2985/83 level. Further losses today target important September lows & important 200 week moving average at 2970/67 plus August mini crash & 2015 lows at 2951. This 20 point range is the most important area of the week. Obviously a break & close below here would therefore be a further disaster for bulls & a big sell signal. We could test 1 year lows at 2918 pretty quickly. If we continue lower look for 2896 then 2880 & 2863.


Ftse March contract

Ftse

FTSE first resistance at 5865/70 but above here look for a retest of the next target & resistance at 5890/95. Shorts need stops above 5915. Be ready to buy a break above here to target a selling opportunity at 5945/50. Shorts need stops above 5970. A break higher targets 5990/95 then 3 day highs at 6014.

Failure to beat 5890/95 targets first support at 5870/65. If we continue lower however look for minor support at 5838/35. Further losses retest yesterday's low at 5800/5789. A break lower today however targets August & 2015 lows at 5761. Obviously this is hugely important for this week. A break & daily close below here would be another sell signal to target 5725/20 then 5699/95.


Dax March contract

Dax

Dax first resistance at 9945/50 but above here re-targets yesterday's high at 9980 before minor resistance at 10020/025. If we continue higher look for strong resistance at 10075/085 & the main challenge for bulls today. Shorts need stops above 10130. Just be aware that a break higher targets 10170/180 then 10270/280.

Failure to beat resistance at 9945/50 targets 9835/25. If we continue lower look for 9810 then 9775 before a retest of yesterday's low at 9657. A break lower keeps the pressure on for the 9650/45 target then 9585/80 & 9540. If we continue lower look for 9485/80.
