Dow breaks trendline resistance
The price continued to gain on Monday, moving above trendline resistance from the August highs. This now clears the way for a possible test of the September lower high around 35,000, and then beyond this on towards the August highs at 35,660.
After consolidating over the past week around 34,000, the buyers appear to be in charge once again. It would need a reversal back below trendline resistance and below the 200-day simple moving average (SMA) to suggest a new leg lower could begin.

CAC40 back above 50-day moving average
The recovery goes on here, with the index once more moving above the 50-day SMA. The index is now moving through the lows of the summer around 7100, and the next target becomes the 7170 zone which acted as resistance in late September and early October.
A failure to close above 7100 and then a drop back below 7000 might signal that a lower high is in place.
