Oha,  könnte  es sein, dass  Marktteilnehmer vorab Infos bekommen haben?  

im Bereich € 149,2  

aber  die Maschinen wollten EMA 50 testen und Stoploss rausholen unter € 150 . Jo sagte ich doch .  

Das wäre aber ne kräftige Dividende :-)

Mich würde aber auch Interessieren was hier heute abgeht. Die Zahlen waren doch gut, oder?  

warscheinlich  Sell on Good News

Seitwärtsbewegung  der letzten 5 Std müßte eigentlci nach oben hin aufgelöst werden  . Mal schauen Richtung EUro 156 - 158
