BONDS: A wide trading range for Gilt

BONDS
  • A wide 40 ticks trading range for the Gilt contract, lower liquidity has helped exacerbate some of two way move, initially sold off on the Open, but has recovered towards its intraday high ahead of the Early close during the early Morning session.
  • UK markets will be closing at 12.15GMT ahead of the New Year, and the timing for the closing Window in Gilt should be at 12:13-12:15 (GMT).
  • Technically, the first resistance is seen further out, up 93.09, but market moves will likely stay limited with most Desks on the sidelines.
  • US Treasuries and Tnotes have stayed within the Overnight ranges, just a 6 ticks range for TYH5 so far today.
  • Immediate resistance for the US 10yr Bond futures is still at 109.08+, only managed a 109.06 high today.
