Treasury futures remain strong on the back of the post-NFP rally - barring the 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.

OUTLOOK: Price Signal Summary - Bear Threat In Gilts Remains Present

Jul-09 11:24
  • In the FI space, Bund futures traded lower Tuesday, extending Monday’s sell-off. Support at 129.77, the Jul 3 low, has been cleared. The clear break confirms a resumption of the recent bearish theme and opens 129.30 next, the May 22 low. On the upside, resistance around the the 50-day EMA, at 130.47, has recently been pierced but for now, remains intact. A clear break of it is required to highlight a possible reversal.
  • A bear cycle in Gilt futures remains in play and Tuesday’s sell-off reinforces this theme. The contract has breached support at 91.63, the Jul 2 low. Price has also pierced 91.50, the 61.8% retracement of the May 22 - Jul 1 bull leg. This exposes 90.97, the 76.4% retracement point. Clearance of this level would strengthen a bearish theme. On the upside, initial firm resistance is at 92.51, the 20-day EMA.
