  • RES 3: 122.00 Round number resistance 
  • RES 2: 121.73 High Jun 13 and the bull trigger

  • SUP 4: 118.51 Low May 14 and key support 

The primary trend condition in BTP futures is unchanged and the direction remains up. For now, the contract continues to trade inside a range and the Aug 15 sell-off signals scope for a move towards the lower end of the range. Key support to watch lies at 119.59, the Jul 25 low. A clear break of this level would highlight a range breakout and a bearish threat. Key resistance is unchanged at 121.73, the Jun 13 high.

Gilt futures continue to trade below their recent highs. A rally on Jul 22 resulted in a break of the 20-day EMA. A resumption of gains would signal scope for a climb towards 92.42, the 50.0% retracement of the Jul 1 - 18 bear leg. On the downside, key support and the bear trigger has been defined at 91.08, the Jul 18 low. Clearance of this level would resume the bear cycle that started Jul 1.
