*COMMENTARY: The bull channel base off Feb 15 lows confirmed significance and
supports. Bears look for a close below the 100-DMA to confirm immediate focus on
157.34-43 with below 157.34 to initially target 156.22. Daily studies are well
placed for a fresh leg lower. Layers of resistance accumulating adds weight to
the bearish case. Bulls now look for a close above 158.79 to gain breathing room
and above 159.69 to shift focus to 160.26-98 where Dec highs are noted.

     SCHATZ TECHS: (M18) Lacks Follow Through Below 55-DMA
*RES 4: 111.946 Bollinger band top 
*RES 3: 111.945 Highs Apr 5 & 6

*SUP 2: 111.830 Low Mar 14 
*SUP 3: 111.809 100-DMA 
*SUP 4: 111.805 Low Mar 9
*COMMENTARY: Topside hesitation has resulted in a sell-off Monday and a dip
below the 55-DMA (111.878). The Bollinger base is noted at 111.843 and is the
key concern for bears. Bears continue to look for a close below 111.805 to
confirm traction below the 100-DMA and immediate focus on 111.715. Daily studies
are well placed for a fresh leg lower. Bulls now need a close above 111.900 to
ease bearish pressure. Above 111.945 is needed to initially target 111.990.
     GILT TECHS: (M18) Broad Sideways Trading Continues
*RES 4: 123.03 High Apr 4 
*RES 3: 122.94 High May 4 
*RES 2: 122.80 Bollinger band top 
*RES 1: 122.50 High May 10
*PREVIOUS CLOSE: 121.77
*SUP 1: 121.49 High Apr 26 now support 
*SUP 2: 121.11 Daily Bull channel base off Feb low 
*SUP 3: 121.07 Low Mar 26 
*SUP 4: 120.69 Low Mar 21
*COMMENTARY: The contract continues to trade sideways in a broad 120.69-123.03
range. M18 is now flirting with the 55-DMA (121.79). Bears continue to look for
a close below 121.49 to confirm a break of the 55-DMA and to pressure
120.69-121.11 where the bull channel base is noted. Below 120.69 is needed to
target 119.29 Feb lows. Bulls still need a close above 123.03 to initially
target 123.84.
     SHORT-STERLING TECHS: (M18) Bears Need Close Below 200-DMA
*RES 4: 99.390 Lows Dec 5 & 8, Low Feb 8 now resistance
*RES 3: 99.370 2018 High Jan 3
*RES 2: 99.352 Bollinger band top
*RES 1: 99.340 Repeated Daily Highs Jan
*PREVIOUS CLOSE: 99.305
*SUP 1: 99.289 200-DMA
*SUP 2: 99.250 Low May 9
*SUP 3: 99.240 Repeated daily lows Apr/May
*SUP 4: 99.228 100-DMA
*COMMENTARY: Hesitation ahead of the 200-DMA came to an end with an aggressive
rally and bullish close that sees immediate focus now on 99.340-370 where 2018
highs are located. O/B daily studies remain the key concern for bulls. Bears now
need a close below the 200-DMA to gain breathing room and hint at a correction
back to 99.210-240 where the 100-DMA is situated.
     EURIBOR TECHS: (Z18) Focus Shifts To 100-DMA
*RES 4: 100.320 - Repeated Daily highs Dec 
*RES 3: 100.310 - 2018 High Repeatedly May 
*RES 2: 100.305 - Repeated daily lows Apr/May 
*RES 1: 100.301 - 21-DMA
*PREVIOUS CLOSE: 100.290
*SUP 1: 100.275 - High Mar 7 now support
*SUP 2: 100.274 - 100-DMA
*SUP 3: 100.265 - Repeated daily lows Mar
*SUP 4: 100.252 - 200-DMA
*COMMENTARY: The correction lower from recent 2018 highs has resulted in a
marginal close below the 55-DMA (100.292) and the daily bull channel base off
2018 lows. Immediate focus now shifts to the 100-DMA with a close below needed
to target the 200-DMA. Bulls now need a close above 100.305 to ease bearish
pressure and above 100.310 to reconfirm focus on 100.320-340.
     US 10-YR FUTURE TECHS: (M18) 118-31 Support Key
*RES 4: 120-06+ High Apr 19
*RES 3: 120-03+ 55-DMA
*RES 2: 120-02+ Low Apr 18 now resistance
*RES 1: 119-17+ 21-DMA
*PRICE: 119-05 @ 0430GMT
*SUP 1: 118-31  2018 Low Apr 25
*SUP 2: 118-24  ow Apr 13 2011
*SUP 3: 117-29+ Monthly Low Apr 8 2011
*SUP 4: 117-07+ Weekly Bear channel base
*COMMENTARY: Follow through below 119-08 was lacking but bears take comfort in
the bounce remaining capped ahead of the 21-DMA. Bulls look for a close above
120-06+ to confirm breaks of 21 & 55-DMAs and shift initial focus back to
120-20+/24. Bears now look for a close below 118-31 to add weight to the case
for a test of the weekly bear channel base coming in around 117-07+ today. Daily
studies are well placed for a fresh leg lower.
     US 10-YR YIELD TECHS: 55-DMA Now Key Support
*RES 4: 3.073 - Low July 6 2011 now resistance 
*RES 3: 3.041 - 2014 High Jan 2 
*RES 2: 3.035 - 2018 High Apr 25 
*RES 1: 3.018 - Hourly support Apr 26 now resistance
*PRICE: 3.001 @ 0430GMT
*SUP 1: 2.957 - 21-DMA 
*SUP 2: 2.937 - Low May 7 
*SUP 3: 2.904 - Low Apr 20 
*SUP 4: 2.879 - 55-DMA
*COMMENTARY: Daily studies remain well placed for a fresh leg higher with focus
back on 3.041-073. Bulls continue to look for a close above 3.073 to confirm
traction above 3.000 and the 2018 high and target 3.219-232 where the weekly
bull channel top is noted. Bears now need a close below 2.937 to confirm a break
of the 21-DMA & ease bullish pressure. Overall below the 55-DMA (2.879) is
needed to shift initial focus back to 2.814.
     EUROSTOXX50 TECHS: Topside Hesitation Less Than Ideal
*RES 4: 3636.22 Monthly High Feb 1 
*RES 3: 3600.36 Low Jan 31 now resistance 
*RES 2: 3596.42 Bollinger band top 
*RES 1: 3574.09 High May 19
*PREVIOUS CLOSE: 3565.74
*SUP 1: 3549.26 Low May 10 
*SUP 2: 3540.14 Low May 7 
*SUP 3: 3523.00 Low May 3 
*SUP 4: 3515.46 200-DMA
*COMMENTARY: Follow through has been lacking on the break of 3570.95 but bulls
take comfort in support emerging on dips. Bears continue to look for a close
below 3540.14 to gain breathing room and below the 200-DMA to target a
correction back to 3464.35. Daily studies lingering at O/B levels is less than
ideal. In saying that, bulls look for a close above 3600.36 to reconfirm focus
on 2018 highs.
