GER30 weekly: index adds 232 points to 25648.7, 2026-09-14

GER30 closed the week of 14 September 2026 at 25648.7, up 232.3 points from the 25416.4 open, with positioning still 61.7% long.

How last week left SOLUSD

SOLUSD opened Monday at 76.76 and closed Friday at 74.87, a net loss of about 1.89 points, or roughly 2.5 percent on the week. The gains built midweek, with Wednesday tagging 78.86, then bled away into Friday as price slipped back toward the range floor near 73.19.

What this week is about

The economic calendar carries no scheduled high-impact events tied to SOLUSD this week. That puts the burden on price structure and flow rather than a single data catalyst. The nearest macro backdrop comes from China, where the PBOC fixing came in firmer than the Reuters estimate. A firmer fixing can weigh on broad risk appetite, and crypto tends to trade with risk sentiment when its own calendar is quiet.

With no dated releases to anchor to, the secondary theme is follow-through. Last week's rejection near 78.86 and the late-week drift toward the low set the tone. Watch how the broader crypto complex behaves, since correlated moves in majors often drag the smaller caps along. Open an LHFX account to trade SOLUSD this week.

Scenarios for the week

If price reclaims and closes above the Friday open near 75.17 early in the week, the midweek supply zone around 78.04 to 78.86 comes back into focus. A clean break through that band would open room toward the 78.86 high from last Wednesday.

If sellers hold the upper hand and price loses the 74.39 area, the Friday low at 73.19 is back in play as the next reference. A firmer risk-off tone would favour this path and could pressure correlated names like Bitcoin alongside SOLUSD.

Positioning into the new week

Client positioning shows 61 percent long against 39 percent short. That is a moderate long skew going into the week. Crowded longs into a market that just closed lower can act as fuel for downside if support gives way, since stops sit below. The skew is not extreme, so it reads more as caution than conviction.

Levels to watch

The upside reference sits at last week's high of 78.86, with the round 78.00 area as a nearer marker. On the downside, the Friday low at 73.19 is the immediate line, and the round 74.00 level sits just above it. These are reference levels for context, not entry signals.
