A bearish corrective cycle in BTP futures remains in play. Price has recently traded below the 20-day EMA and support at 117.24, the Jan 5 low, has been breached. This opens the 50-day EMA at 116.72 - the next key support. Initial firm resistance has been defined at 119.23, the Jan 12 high. A reversal higher and a break of this level would highlight a base and a potential resumption of the primary uptrend.
