BTP futures remain in a clear downtrend following the recent extension lower to 144.48 on Mar 19. However, since May 19, prices have recovered and a corrective cycle remains in play, allowing a recent oversold condition to unwind. The recent break of the 20- and the 50-day EMA signals scope for further short-term gains and this has opened 148.10, a Fibonacci retracement. On the downside, initial support is at 146.83.
