The trend outlook in Bund futures remains bearish and this week’s move lower reinforces current conditions. The contract has pierced key support at 131.23, the Feb 29 low. A clear break of this level would confirm a resumption of the downtrend that started late December last year. Attention is on 130.87 and 130.25, Fibonacci projections. On the upside, initial firm resistance is at 133.05, the Apr 12 high. Short-term gains are considered corrective - for now.
