The DAX, the German DAX 40 ETF, is knocking on its all-time high again: weekly technical analysis puts it 0.44% below the record, up 6.70% since entry, with the MACD histogram climbing for four weeks and ADX rising — the trend is gaining conviction. The daily opens a crack, though: buyers account for under a third of turnover and money flow has slipped below zero. Signal Strength stays at 8 out of 100, and the quality band advises against fresh entries.
