On May 16, as the second half of the month starts, there exist an opportunity to earn money along with the German DAX, the French CAC 40 and the Japanese Nikkei 225 Indexes, which demonstrated high efficiency during the above-mentioned period of time.
Today, the preference will be given to the German Stock Index as an indicator of the stock market not only in Germany, but also in the European Union. In addition, the research on the half-month effect, that showed a significant average return per transaction, proves the foregoing fact.
From the beginning of January to the beginning of March of this year, the DAX Index decreased by 20%, but today has returned half of this decline.
At the moment, on the daily index chart, the potential completion of the corrective movement after the March growth is observed. The price steadily reached the Fibonacci retracement levels of 14.6%, 23.6%, 38.2%, 50%, 61.8%, and now it is strengthening its position, moving up to Fibo 23.6%.
In a situation of continuing geopolitical instability, uncertainty and growing sanctions’ pressure, the Index is likely to enter sideways movement with boundaries in the form of 0% - 50% Fibonacci retracement levels, which correspond to price levels of 14930 and 13690.
