*SUP 4: 99.010 Weekly Bear channel base

*COMMENTARY: The sell-off from failures at the 99.200 level resulted in fresh

2018 & 10mth lows Thursday but the lack of follow through and bounce from ahead

of 99.010-080 is a concern for bears. In saying that, bulls continue to look for

a close above 99.150 to ease bearish pressure and above 99.170 to shift focus

back to 99.200-220. Above this region initially targets 55 & 100-DMAs

99.234-270.
