Treasury futures remain strong on the back of the post-NFP rally - barring an erratic and quickly reversed intraday slip on Wednesday. Having cleared resistance into the bull trigger at 112-12+, the Jul 1 high, Treasuries have opened the May 1 high for direction at 112-23, a multi-month high. Clearance here opens retracement levels layered between 113-07 and 113-23. On the downside, key support is 110-08+, the Jul 14 and 16 low. First support lies at 110-19+, the Jul 24 low.

AUD: Some upside Momentum in the AUDNZD

Jul-08 12:23
  • The Aussie is still trading on the front foot, all a continuation since the unexpected hold from the RBA Overnight.
  • While the Dollar has been paring some losses throughout the early European session, taking its cue from the higher US Yields, there's some upside momentum in the AUDNZD here, through a fresh intraday high, and the AUDNZD could now target the May's high at 1.0922.
