Despite recent gains, Bund futures maintain a softer tone following last week’s move lower. Price has traded below the 20-day EMA which intersects at 135.72. It represents an important pivot level and a clear break would strengthen a bearish threat. 134.80, the Mar 22 low, has also been tested. A breach of this level would open 134.15, a Fibonacci retracement. Initial resistance is at 136.77, the Mar 30 high.
