Futures Outlook For Tuesday: FTSE, DAX, Eurostoxx

FTSE June Contract
Ftse plunged lower yesterday (Monday) finding support at 3698. Now the close back above 3722 is quite positive for today, with your first 25% retracement target of 3753 looking to entice. At these higher levels you may see a bit of selling pressure, but after the declines of yesterday this market does need some correction today to ease the short term oversold conditions of the hourly charts.
If the market breaks through this 3756 region fresh buyers will be waiting to push the market higher with 3771/77 looking to attract prices. Once more profit taking is expected.
Now this level is just under the 50% short term retrace target of 3782 so
would expect sellers to be waiting at these higher levels to push this lower once more.
Only above 3785 keeps the market stronger.
As stated support is at 3722. A loss of this support would see sellers take control and push this lower for 3684. This support should hold initial attempt. However any break below here keeps the pressure to the downside and sees 3665 where once more you would expect profit taking. Sellers will only re-enter below 3642.

Dax June Contract
Sharp declines took this lower yesterday with 3976 the low. Now this has started a small bounce on the close and this morning you are looking at further strength with the first fib level of 4059 tying in with resistance at 4052/63 as your first objective. Profit taking would be expected to here, and sellers looking to pounce just below. So there will be a bit of bulls v bears at these levels.
Above 4065 the buyers take control and should run with this to 4080/4097.
Within this band look for profit taking once more and also fresh sellers. Only above 4115 would sellers be looking to reverse position, with 4129 then targeted.
If there is no buying interest on the open and the market fails to make any headway past 4038 look for comebacks to 3995/92. Only below here sellers should emerge and losses would then occur with 3976 your immediate attraction. Sellers would be covering positions here. They should re-sell below here for good support at 3964. If this support yields look for further weakness leading to 3908.

Eurostoxx June Contract
Eurostxx achieved yesterday 61.8% retracement of the bullish move higher with 1920 the level. This market hit 1921 and has held and bounced slightly.
Buyers will take advantage of this key level and look to push this higher today.
Initial resistance located at 1952. If this can break you should find fresh buyers coming in to lead the market higher with 1967/1970 your immediate attraction.
Expect profit taking at these higher levels. Sellers would also be coming
to the fore and looking for this to come lower once more. However, if this can trade and hold above 1970 sellers will have to rethink and buyers will be waiting to run with it through to 1992/97. As would expect profit taking should cap this time and losses should follow.
Now if after talking this market higher it holds at 1952 you would once more be looking at 1920. Sellers will be profit taking at these lows. Only below 1915 would fresh selling reappear leading this lower to 1912/10. If this support is lost look for 1893.
