The trend condition in BTP futures remains bearish and recent gains appear to be a correction. Key support at 116.98, the Jan 25 low, has recently been cleared. The break signals a resumption of the bear cycle and sights are on 115.70, the Dec 8 low. Firm resistance has been defined at 119.27, the Jan 30 high. Clearance of this level could signal scope for a stronger recovery instead.
