AUSSIE 3-YR TECHS: (U17) Looking A Little Heavy 
*RES 4: 98.129 - 100-DMA 
*RES 3: 98.090 - High Aug 4 
*RES 2: 98.072 - 55-DMA 
*RES 1: 98.070 - 200-DMA
*PRICE: 98.000 @ 2130GMT
*SUP 1: 98.000 - Low Aug 15 & 16 
*SUP 2: 97.995 - Bollinger band base 
*SUP 3: 97.980 - Alternating daily support/resistance 
*SUP 4: 97.940 - Low July 26
*COMMENTARY: Pressure is back on the 98.000 support with bears continuing to
look for a close below 97.980 to add weight to the case for a move back to
97.810-860. Narrowing Bollinger bands remain suggestive of a break out in the
near future. Layers of resistance remain with bulls still needing a close above
98.090 to reconfirm a bullish bias and above the 100-DMA to shift overall focus
back to 98.350. The Bollinger base is the key concern for bears.
AUSSIE 10-YR TECHS: (U17) 97.3150 Support Remains Key 
*RES 4: 97.4604 - 55-WMA
*RES 3: 97.4450 - High June 30
*RES 2: 97.4250 - High Aug 18
*RES 1: 97.3900 - High Aug 2
*PRICE: 97.3350 @ 2130GMT
*SUP 1: 97.3450 - 21-DMA
*SUP 2: 97.3400 - Hourly resistance Aug 16 now support
*SUP 3: 97.3150 - Low Aug 15
*SUP 4: 97.2500 - Low July 27
*COMMENTARY: The 97.3150 support confirmed significance having stalled the
correction lower from 55 & 100-DMA failures. Bears need a close below 97.3150 to
confirm breaks of 21 (97.3452) & 200 (97.3190) DMAs and below 97.1650 to confirm
focus on tests of 96.9800-97.0600 where 2017 lows are located. Bulls look for a
close above 97.4450 to hint at a move back to 97.6100-6750 with above the 55-WMA
to confirm.
US 10-YR FUTURE TECHS: (U17) Focus Returns To 125-250/126-110
*RES 4: 127-080 - Monthly High June 14 
*RES 3: 127-070 - 200-WMA 
*RES 2: 127-010 - High Aug 18 
*RES 1: 126-290 - High Aug 21
*PRICE: 126-170 @ 2130GMT
*SUP 1: 126-110 - Low Aug 17
*SUP 2: 126-040 - 55-DMA, Daily Bull channel base
*SUP 3: 126-000 - Low Aug 16
*SUP 4: 125-290 - Low Aug 8
*COMMENTARY: The lack of topside follow through Friday has left bulls struggling
ahead of the 127-010 resistance this week with the break of 126-180 seeing focus
shift back to 125-250/126-110 where key DMAs and the bull channel base are
situated. Overall bears need a close below the 100-DMA (125-250) to end bullish
hopes and initially target 125-150. Bulls now need a close above 126-290 to
reconfirm focus on 127-010/080.
US 10-YR YIELD TECHS: 2.229 Resistance Key Today
*RES 4: 2.289 - High Aug 4 & 8
*RES 3: 2.264 - Hourly support Aug 16 now resistance 
*RES 2: 2.250 - Alternating hourly support/resistance 
*RES 1: 2.229 - Hourly resistance Aug 17
*PRICE: 2.194 @ 2130GMT
*SUP 1: 2.192 - Hourly support Aug 21 
*SUP 2: 2.177 - Low Aug 21 
*SUP 3: 2.164 - Low Aug 18 
*SUP 4: 2.121 - Low June 26
*COMMENTARY: Modestly O/S daily studies are correcting & combined with the
Bollinger base (2.165) are key concerns for bears who are focused on tests of
2017 lows. Bulls continue to look for a close above 2.229 to ease bearish
pressure and above 2.264 to shift initial focus back to 2.289. While 2.229 caps
bears retain the advantage with below 2.164 needed to add weight to their case.
Fresh 2017 lows target 2.053-121 where 2017 lows and the 100-WMA are situated.
JGB TECHS: (U17) Daily Studies At Very O/B Levels 
*RES 4: 151.08 - High May 1
*RES 3: 150.92 - Low Apr 26 now resistance
*RES 2: 150.89 - High June 7
*RES 1: 150.84 - High Aug 18
*PRICE: 150.74 @ 2130GMT
*SUP 1: 150.69 - Low Aug 21 
*SUP 2: 150.57 - Low Aug 17 
*SUP 3: 150.51 -100-DMA 
*SUP 4: 150.42 - 200-DMA
*COMMENTARY: The rally that has defined August looks to be struggling a little
as daily studies look to correct from very O/B levels and add weight to the case
for a correction. bears need a close below 150.69 to ease immediate bullish
pressure and shift initial focus back to 150.32-51 where key DMAs are clustered.
Bulls now look for a close above 150.92 to reconfirm the bullish bias and
initially target 151.21.
