The trend outlook in Schatz futures remains bearish, however, the contract traded higher yesterday and price remains closer to its recent highs. Resistance to watch is at the 50-day EMA, at 107.152. A clear break of this EMA would undermine a bear theme and signal scope for a stronger recovery. On the downside, the bear trigger has been defined at 106.970, the Aug 25 low.

The 50-day EMA is at 107.273. On the downside, key support and the bear trigger has been defined at 107.010, the Jul 25 low.
