  • RES 3: 121-09 High Apr 14
  • RES 2: 121-03+ 50-day EMA
  • RES 1: 120-00+/120-18+ High May 12 / High Apr 27
  • PRICE: 118-27 @ 11:11 BST May 18
  • SUP 1: 118-03+/117-08+ Low May 11 / Low May 9 and a bear trigger
  • SUP 2: 116-28 0.764 proj of the Mar 7 - 28 - 31 price swing
  • SUP 3: 116-16+ 2.0% 10-dma envelope
  • SUP 4: 116.00 Round number support

Treasuries remain below the recent high of 120-00+ on May 12. The trend direction remains down and recent short-term gains are considered corrective - a pause in the downtrend. Any resumption of gains would open 120-18+, the Apr 27 high. This level represents an important short-term resistance where a break would signal scope for a stronger retracement. Key support and the bear trigger is unchanged at 117-08+.
