BTP futures traded higher on May 15 and breached 118.61, the May 6 high. However, the contract has pulled back from its recent highs and this has exposed support at 116.94, the May 15 low. It has today been breached and marks a bearish development, opening 115.76, the Apr 25 low and bear trigger. Key short-term resistance is at 119.10, the Apr 10 high. Clearance of this hurdle would reinstate a bullish theme and open 120.28, the Mar 14 high.
