AUSSIE 3-YR TECHS: (Z17) Topside Break Lacks Follow Through 
*RES 4: 97.942 - 55-DMA 
*RES 3: 97.935 - Hourly resistance Sept 14 
*RES 2: 97.911 - Daily Bear channel top 
*RES 1: 97.890 - High Oct 16
*PRICE: 97.870 @ 2030GMT
*SUP 1: 97.820 - Low Oct 6 
*SUP 2: 97.780 - Low Sept 28 & Oct 2 
*SUP 3: 97.760 - Hourly resistance Sept 21 now support 
*SUP 4: 97.720 - 2017 Low Sept 20
*COMMENTARY: Support emerging ahead of 87.820 last week has provided the base
for a break of the 97.880 resistance although follow through has been lacking
with the contract capped ahead of the bear channel top. The 97.820 support
remains key. Bears need a close below 97.820 to confirm a break of the 21-DMA
(97.830) and shift focus back to 97.720 2017 lows. A close above 97.950 is
needed to shift focus to 98.019-050 where 100 & 200-DMAs are noted.
AUSSIE 10-YR TECHS: (Z17) 97.2300 Resistance Remains Key 
*RES 4: 97.2769 - 55-DMA
*RES 3: 97.2300 - Low July 26 now resistance
*RES 2: 97.2205 - Bollinger band top
*RES 1: 97.2100 - Monthly Low July 20 now resistance
*PRICE: 97.2000 @ 2030GMT
*SUP 1: 97.1650 - Low Oct 13
*SUP 2: 97.1602 - 21-DMA
*SUP 3: 97.1450 - Hourly support Oct 12
*SUP 4: 97.1100 - Low Oct 6
*COMMENTARY: Pressure returned to key resistance levels with bulls needing a
close above 97.2300 to ease bearish pressure and to shift focus back to
97.2769-3165 where key DMAs are situated. Initial support is noted at 97.1650
with bears needing a close below 97.1450 to shift focus back to 97.0600-0900.
Bears need a close below 97.0600 to confirm focus on 96.9650-9743 where the bear
channel base is noted.
US 10-YR FUTURE TECHS: (Z17) Bears Need Close Below 125-100
*RES 4: 126-020 - 55-DMA 
*RES 3: 125-290 - 100-DMA 
*RES 2: 125-255 - High Oct 13 
*RES 1: 125-160 - Hourly support Oct 16 now resistance
*PRICE: 125-160 @ 2030GMT
*SUP 1: 125-100 - Low Oct 13
*SUP 2: 125-050 - Hourly support Oct 11
*SUP 3: 124-310 - Hourly support Oct 9
*SUP 4: 124-280 - Bollinger band base
*COMMENTARY: The close above the 21-DMA (125-160) Friday sees bulls now focused
on the 125-290/090 region where 55 & 100-DMAs are situated after correcting O/S
studies provided support last week. The sell-off Monday was less than ideal and
saw bears gain breathing room, but a close below 125-100 remains needed to shift
focus back to Oct lows so far at 124-220.
US 10-YR YIELD TECHS: Focus on 2.208-2.245
*RES 4: 2.372 - Hourly resistance Oct 6 
*RES 3: 2.355 - Hourly resistance Oct 11 
*RES 2: 2.334 - High Oct 13 
*RES 1: 2.315 - 200-DMA
*PRICE: 2.302 @ 0430GMT
*SUP 1: 2.278 - Low Oct 16 
*SUP 2: 2.245 - High Sept 26 now support 
*SUP 3: 2.236 - 100-DMA 
*SUP 4: 2.231 - 55-DMA
*COMMENTARY: Pressure on the 200-DMA took its toll with a break and close below
the 200 & 21 (2.294) DMAs and the key 2.284 support Friday that sees bears
initially focused on 2.208-2.245 where 55 & 100-DMAs are noted. Correcting O/B
studies add weight to the bearish case. Bulls continue to look for a close above
the 200-DMA to ease immediate bearish pressure and above 2.402 to return initial
focus to 2.437.
JGB TECHS: (Z17) 150.28 Support Remains Key 
*RES 4: 150.68 - 55-DMA
*RES 3: 150.59 - High Oct 5
*RES 2: 150.53 - 100-DMA
*RES 1: 150.48 - Alternating hourly support/resistance
*PRICE: 150.39 @ 2030GMT
*SUP 1: 150.31 - Low Oct 13 
*SUP 2: 150.28 - Hourly resistance Oct 3 now support 
*SUP 3: 150.18 - Hourly support Oct 3 
*SUP 4: 150.08 - Low Oct 3
*COMMENTARY: Layers of resistance remain 150.48-150.68 where key DMAs are
situated. Bulls continue to look for a close above the 55-DMA to end bearish
hopes and shift immediate focus to 150.96-151.09. The 150.28 support remains
key. Bears look for a close below 150.28 to ease pressure on DMAs and to return
focus to 150.06-09. Correcting O/S daily studies are the key concern for bears
but the 150.48-67 region remains key.
