BTP futures started the week on a softer note and the contract maintains a bearish tone. Resistance is at 150.39, Mar 11 high with a pivotal level at 150.69, 76.4% of the Feb 12 - 26 sell-off. While these levels hold, the short-term risk appears skewed to the downside. A breach of 148.36, Mar 18 low would reinforce a bearish argument and signal scope for a deeper pullback. On the upside, clearance of 150.39 would instead be bullish.
