off June highs situated in this region. Bulls need a close above 98.015 to shift

continue to look for a close below the 55-DMA to ease bullish pressure and below

*COMMENTARY: Bulls take comfort as M18 gains traction above the 21-DMA with

where the 55-DMA is located. Support layers emerging adds to bullish confidence
with bears now needing a close below the 21-DMA to gain breathing room and below

US 10-YR YIELD TECHS: Below 2.786 Targets 2.609-648
*RES 4: 2.957 - 2018 High Feb 21
*RES 3: 2.925 - High Feb 27
*RES 2: 2.875 - High Mar 1
*RES 1: 2.824 - Hourly support Mar 1 now resistance

*SUP 2: 2.758 - Low July 2
*SUP 3: 2.648 - Low Feb 6
*SUP 4: 2.641 - 55-DMA
*COMMENTARY: The lack of topside follow through on 2018 & 4yr highs was less
than ideal for bulls who were focused on 3.041 2014. Focus has now returned to
the 2.758 support as the yield trades below the daily bull channel base and
21-DMA (2.851). Bears now look for a close below 2.786 to end bullish hopes and
shift focus back to 2.609-648 where the 55-DMA (2.641) is noted. Bulls now need
a close above 2.875 to gain breathing room.
JGB TECHS: (H18) Above 151.05 To Target 151.19-51

*SUP 2: 150.85 - High Feb 22 now support
*SUP 3: 150.82 - Low Feb 23
*SUP 4: 150.71 - Repeated daily lows Feb
*COMMENTARY: Recent 2018 and 3mth highs lacked follow through & when combined
with daily momentum divergence and O/B studies in general is a concern for
bulls. Bears still need a close below 150.82 to confirm an easing of bullish
pressure and below the 200-DMA (150.60) now to confirm breaks of key DMAs and to
hint at a move back to 2018 lows. Bulls now need a close above 151.05 to confirm
focus on 151.19-51.
