Dow and Hang Seng struggle but DAX pushes higher
The Dow and Hang Seng have both seen volatile trading, while the DAX is making another attempt to move higher.
Wall Street hovers near Friday lows
The Wall Street index attempted to rally yesterday but was beaten back from the highs of the day. So far it continues to hold just above the lows of last week.
A close back above 43,700 might help to suggest a low has formed and might allow the price to push on towards 45,000. Further declines would head towards the rising 200-day simple moving average near 42,500.

Last week saw selling pressure run out of momentum at 22,100, so a close below this is needed to indicate a new leg lower has begun.
