GER40 (DAX) — Gap Still OpenGermany 40CAPITALCOM:GER40COLOMBINI-TRADINGThe market has spent the last several sessions doing exactly what strong trends often do after a breakout: consolidating above support instead of correcting through price. While many traders remain focused on the recent highs near 25,400, the more interesting area sits below the market. A significant gap remains open in the 24,820–24,900 zone, a level that has not been revisited since the impulsive move higher. Historically, unfilled gaps tend to act as magnets, especially when momentum begins to fade and market participants become overly comfortable with the prevailing trend. At the same time, the DAX continues to hold above its rising medium-term moving averages, suggesting that buyers are still defending structure. This creates a classic tension between: 📈 Bullish trend structure vs. 📉 Unfinished business below For now, price remains trapped in a range beneath resistance around 25,170–25,200, while support continues to build above the open gap. My base case remains that the market will eventually revisit the highlighted zone before attempting a more sustainable move toward new highs. Whether that happens through a sharp liquidation event or a gradual drift lower remains the key question. Key Levels 🔹 Resistance: 25,170 – 25,200 🔹 Major Resistance: 25,410 🔹 Gap Zone: 24,820 – 24,900 🔹 Structural Support: 24,950 – 25,000 As long as the gap remains open, I view it as an important downside magnet that should not be ignored. Markets often remember unfinished business longer than traders do.
