  • RES 1: 122.72 High Mar 18 and a key near-term resistance

  • SUP 1: 120.86 Low Mar 21
  • SUP 2: 120.00 Round number support
  • SUP 3: 119.75 123.6% retracement of the Feb 15 - Mar 1 climb
  • SUP 4: 118.92 138.2% retracement of the Feb 15 - Mar 1 climb

Gilt futures remain in a bear cycle following recent weakness and the extension of the pullback from the Mar 1 high of 126.81. Recent short-term gains were considered corrective and price has remained below resistance at 123.52, the Mar 9 high. The contract continues to pressure key support at 121.10, Feb 6 low and a bear trigger. A clear break would confirm a resumption of the broader downtrend. This would open 120.00.
