DAX 30 Range Holds For Now, Breakout on the Horizon
Upside in the DAX had once again struggled at the 12900 vicinity with the index reversing recent gains. However, the index continues to trade within a relatively tight range as the 76.4% Fibonacci retracement at 12447 curbs losses. This week, much of the focus will be on the EU summit with talks over the recovery fund proposal taking centre stage. Although, with expectations of an agreement on the low end, eyes will be on potential progress with regard to getting the frugal four on board.
