OUTLOOK: Price Signal Summary - Bear Cycle In Bunds Remains Intact

Nov-14 12:28
  • In the FI space, a strong sell-off in Bund futures yesterday reinforces the current corrective bearish condition and today’s fresh short-term cycle low, highlights a resumption of the bear leg. A continuation would pave the way for a move towards 128.52, the 61.8% retracement of the Sep 25 - Oct 17 bull leg. Key short-term resistance is seen at 129.40, the Nov 13 high. A clear break of this level would signal a possible reversal and the end of a corrective phase.
  • Gilt futures gapped sharply lower at the open. For now, a move down is considered corrective and the next key support to watch lies at 91.82, the Sep 11 high and a former key breakout level. Note that moving average studies are in a bull-mode position highlighting a dominant uptrend. First resistance to watch is 92.85, today’s intraday high. On the downside, a break of 91.82, the Sep 11 high, would strengthen a bear theme.
