The broader trend condition in Gilt futures remains bearish. This week’s breach of the 20-day EMA and a trendline resistance drawn from the Mar 1 high, appeared to be a bullish development. Price has instead failed to hold on to recent highs, signalling the end of the recent correction. Resistance has been defined at 119.79, the Apr 26 high where a break is required to reinstate a bullish theme. An extension lower would expose the 117.22 bear trigger.
