  • SUP 4: 103-00   3.500 proj of the Jun 30 - Jul 14 - 17 price swing

The trend condition in Treasuries remains bearish and despite a shallow bounce, the contract is still trading closer to its recent cycle lows. Scope is seen for an extension towards 103-15+, a Fibonacci projection. Note that momentum studies highlight an oversold trend. A short-term reversal higher would allow this condition to unwind. Initial firm resistance to watch is 105-03, the 20-day EMA.
