German stock index DAX 30 is building a bearish pullback to the 23.6% Fibonacci level after completing 5 bullish waves (grey) in a wave 3 (pink).
-
Price action, however, is in between the 21 ema high and 21 ema low after bouncing at the 23.6% Fibonacci level. This is an indecision zone.
-
The next breakout is critical. A bullish breakout (green arrows) above the resistance (orange) could indicate an uptrend continuation.
Will there be a deeper wave 4 retracements to the 38.2% Fibonacci level or will price break above the 21 ema high? Let’s review.
