Analysis
The Euro Stoxx 50 trades at 6,078, down 0.15%, showing mild bearish pressure as it remains below key SMAs (20d: 6,193; 50d: 6,299), reinforcing resistance overhead. The RSI-14 at 45 reflects neutral-to-weak momentum. A cluster of bearish Double Top patterns (57%, 50%, 50% confidence) suggests potential downside, though confirmation is needed. Immediate resistance lies at 6,165 (R1), while support holds at 5,975 (S1). Descending trendlines on 20d and 50d timeframes further highlight the short-term downtrend, with the index testing near-term support at 6,028. A break below 6,024 (50d support) could accelerate declines toward S1. The 200d SMA (6,105) remains a critical level to watch for broader trend direction.

Analysis
The DAX 40 trades at 25,255, down 0.46%, with the RSI-14 neutral at 50, indicating balanced momentum. The index remains below the SMA20 (25,279) and SMA50 (25,623), signaling short-term bearish pressure, though above the SMA200 (24,879), maintaining a longer-term bullish bias. Resistance levels are noted at 25,497 (R1), 25,900 (R2), and 26,596 (R3), while supports lie at 24,731 (S1), 24,171 (S2), and 23,523 (S3). Multiple bearish Double Top patterns (50-91% confidence) suggest potential downside. Short-term trendlines show ascending support near 25,026 and resistance at 25,723, while the 50-day descending resistance at 25,659 reinforces overhead pressure. A break below 25,026 may accelerate declines toward S1.

Analysis
The CAC 40 trades at 7,777, down 0.44%, with bearish momentum as the RSI-14 remains neutral at 46. The index sits below all key SMAs (20d: 7,873; 50d: 8,116; 200d: 8,211), confirming a downtrend. Resistance levels are at 7,984 (R1), 8,266 (R2), and 8,464 (R3), while supports lie at 7,705 (S1) and 7,514 (S2). Multiple Double Top patterns suggest bearish reversals, with higher confidence at the 95% level. Short-term trendlines show descending resistance at 7,926 (20d) and 7,909 (50d), reinforcing downside pressure. A break below 7,705 could accelerate declines toward 7,514, while a move above 7,984 may signal a near-term recovery. The technical setup remains cautious.

Analysis
The FTSE 100 trades at 10,707, down 0.17%, with the RSI-14 at 63 indicating neutral momentum. The index remains above key SMAs (SMA20: 10,637; SMA50: 10,706; SMA200: 10,510), suggesting underlying support. Resistance is noted at 10,892, while immediate support lies at 10,653, followed by 10,372 and 10,115. Multiple bearish double-top patterns (93%, 82%, 56% confidence) signal potential downside risk. Short-term trendlines show ascending support at 10,594 and resistance at 10,940 over 20 days, while the 50-day trendlines present descending support at 10,316 and resistance at 10,880. The convergence of bearish patterns near key resistance warrants caution despite the neutral RSI and SMA alignment.

Analysis
The IBEX 35 trades flat at 18,913, showing neutral momentum with an RSI-14 of 42. The index remains below key SMAs (20d: 19,199; 50d: 19,580), signaling bearish pressure, though the 200d SMA at 18,647 provides underlying support. Three double top patterns (82%, 50%, 95% confidence) reinforce bearish sentiment. Resistance is layered at 19,495 (R1), 20,008 (R2), and 20,342 (R3), while supports sit at 18,015 (S1), 17,468 (S2), and 16,545 (S3). Short-term trendlines show descending resistance at 19,269 (20d) and 19,487 (50d), with descending supports at 18,733 (20d) and 18,529 (50d). The technical setup suggests consolidation with downside bias unless resistance levels are breached.

Analysis
The FTSE MIB trades at 48,468, up 0.17%, but remains below key moving averages (SMA20 at 50,025, SMA50 at 51,366), signaling bearish pressure. The RSI-14 at 33 suggests near-oversold conditions, though downside risks persist. Multiple double-top patterns (94% and two 50% confidence levels) reinforce bearish sentiment. Immediate resistance lies at 50,214 (R1), with support at 45,246 (S1). Descending trendlines highlight weakening momentum, with 20-day resistance at 49,516 and 50-day resistance at 50,930. A break below 47,860 (20-day support) could accelerate declines toward S1, while reclaiming SMA200 (49,293) may signal a short-term rebound. The index remains vulnerable to further downside amid prevailing bearish technicals.

Analysis
The AEX Amsterdam trades at 1,130, marginally up 0.02%, with the RSI-14 at 46 indicating neutral momentum. The index remains above its key SMAs (20d: 1,127; 50d: 1,114; 200d: 1,054), suggesting a bullish medium-term bias, though the repeated Double Top patterns (95% and 50% confidence) signal potential bearish reversals. Immediate resistance lies at 1,147, while support levels are at 1,092 and 988. Short-term trendlines show ascending support at 1,129 (20d) and 1,108 (50d), with resistance at 1,155 and 1,150, respectively. A break below 1,129 could test lower supports, while surpassing 1,147 may target higher resistance. Caution is warranted given the conflicting technical signals.
