Dec-08 08:14
  • RES 4: 92.55 High Nov 11 
  • RES 3: 92.31 High Nov 12          
  • RES 2: 92.00 Round number resistance
  • RES 1: 91.93 High Nov 27      
  • PRICE: 91.00 @ 08:03 Dec 8

  • SUP 2: 90.28 Low Nov 21  
  • SUP 3: 90.00 Round number support    
  • SUP 4: 89.86 Low Nov 19 and the bear trigger     

A bullish short-term cycle in Gilt futures remains intact and the pullback between Nov 27 - Dec 2 appears to have been a correction. A resumption of gains would signal scope for a climb towards resistance at 92.55, the Nov 11 high. A gap in the daily chart has been filled and initial resistance to watch is 91.93, the Nov 27 high. For bears, a stronger reversal would instead refocus expose 90.53, the Nov 26 low. First support is 90.87, the Dec 2 low.

The pair has breached an important support at 1.3946, the base of a bull channel drawn from the Jul 23 low. The break highlights a stronger bear cycle and signals scope for an extension towards 1.3769 next, a Fibonacci retracement point. Initial firm resistance to watch is 1.3997, 20-day EMA.
