Dow Jones Europe Index ($E1DOW) recovered above 230 and is expected to consolidate between 230 and 250. The bear market remains strong, with 13-week Twiggs Money Flow below zero indicating selling pressure. Reversal below 230 would test the 2010 low of 205, though the calculated target is lower*.

Dow Jones Industrial Average rallied, suggesting a second higher low above primary support at 10600/10800. Expect a test of 11900/12000, but this does not mean the bear market is about to reverse. We are still in the early “denial stage” of the bear market, identified by sporadic bargain-hunting, high volatility and a general lack of direction. Declining volume indicates a lack of enthusiasm from buyers and sellers. Failure of primary support would change that, leading to a sharp fall to 10000*.
* Target calculation: 11000 – ( 12000 – 11000 ) = 10000
Dow Jones Germany Index broke support at 210/205 Monday, warning of another sharp fall as the ECB ramps up bond purchases and German participation in the bailout program is challenged in their High Court. Plunging 13-week Twiggs Money Flow indicates strong selling pressure. Target for the fall is the 2009 low of 150*.
* Target calculation: 200 – ( 250 – 200 ) = 150
