​​​Overnight summary

​Global markets traded cautiously ahead of the Federal Reserve’s (Fed) expected rate cut, with Wall Street dipping slightly, Europe posting its steepest drop in nearly a month, Asia holding steady, volatility rising, and UK inflation slowing.

​DAX 40 slips to near 4-month low

​The DAX 40’s fall through its August low at 23,381 doesn’t bode well for the bulls with the June low at 23,052 representing a possible downside target.

​This scenario will remain in play while no bullish reversal takes the German blue chip index above Monday’s high at 23,855.

​Immediate resistance sits at the early August low at 23,381 and more resistance around the 2 September low at 23,483.
