A bearish threat in BTP futures remains present and last week’s move lower reinforces this theme. The break lower resulted in a breach of key support at 116.15, the Feb 22 low and a bear trigger. A clear break of this level would highlight an important bearish development and signal scope for a deeper retracement, towards 115.70 initially, the Dec 8 2023 low (cont). Key short-term resistance to watch is 119.10, the Mar 27 high.
