BUND TECHS: (U18) Support Emerging Ahead Of 55-DMA
*RES 4: 163.03 High May 30
*RES 3: 162.15 High May 31
*RES 2: 161.75 High June 1
*RES 1: 160.68 Lows June 4 & 5 now resistance
*PREVIOUS CLOSE: 160.31
*SUP 1: 159.95 21-DMA
*SUP 2: 159.39 Low June 7
*SUP 3: 159.16 55-DMA
*SUP 4: 158.23 High May 16 now support
*COMMENTARY: Despite finding support ahead of the 55-DMA Thursday, topside
follow through remained absent to end the week. Bulls now look for a close above
161.13 to gain breathing room and above 162.15 to hint at a move back to 2018
highs. The 55-DMA is key support to start the week. Bears look for a close below
the 55-DMA to confirm immediate focus on 157.14-158.23 with below 157.14 to
target 154.33 Feb lows. Daily studies have now corrected to neutral levels.
     BOBL TECHS: (U18) Topside Follow Through Lacking
*RES 4: 132.370 Hourly resistance May 30 
*RES 3: 132.120 High May 31 
*RES 2: 131.860 High June 5 
*RES 1: 131.630 High June 8
*PREVIOUS CLOSE: 131.400
*SUP 1: 131.250 Hourly support June 7
*SUP 2: 130.920 Low June 7
*SUP 3: 130.810 Low May 24
*SUP 4: 130.689 55-DMA
*COMMENTARY: Despite dipping below the 21-DMA Thursday bears failed to manage a
close below. The bounce Friday saw a break of 131.430 but topside follow through
remains absent. Bulls continue to look for a close above 132.120 to return focus
to 132.660-970 where 2018 highs are noted. Bears now need a close below 131.250
to reconfirm focus on 130.590-920 where the 55-DMA is located.
     SCHATZ TECHS: (U18) 112-065-155 Resistance Region Key
*RES 4: 112.270 High May 30 
*RES 3: 112.155 Hourly resistance May 30 
*RES 2: 112.120 High May 31 
*RES 1: 112.065 High June 5
*PREVIOUS CLOSE: 112.045
*SUP 1: 111.985 Low June 8 
*SUP 2: 111.933 21-DMA 
*SUP 3: 111.910 Low June 7 
*SUP 4: 111.815 Alternating daily support/resistance
*COMMENTARY: Bulls take comfort in the lack of traction below the 21-DMA on the
dip Thursday leaving bears needing a close below 111.910 to confirm a break and
immediate focus on 111.796-817 where 55 & 100-DMAs are located. Layers of
resistance remain 112.065-155 that are seen as key. Bulls need a close above
112.065 to gain breathing room and above 112.155 to shift focus back to
112.270-425 where 2018 highs are noted.
     GILT TECHS: (U18) Bulls Need Close Above 122.51
*RES 4: 123.93 Hourly resistance May 29 
*RES 3: 123.17 High June 1 
*RES 2: 122.51 High June 8 
*RES 1: 122.00 Hourly support June 8 now resistance
*PREVIOUS CLOSE: 121.82
*SUP 1: 121.51 Low June 7 
*SUP 2: 121.35 55-DMA 
*SUP 3: 120.95 100-DMA 
*SUP 4: 119.95 Monthly Low Apr 23
*COMMENTARY: Despite bouncing from ahead of the 55-DMA, topside follow through
was lacking Friday leaving the contract looking offered. The 100-DMA is key
support this week. Bears need a close below the 100-DMA to confirm a break of
the 55-DMA and to confirm immediate focus on 119.95 Apr lows. Bulls now need a
close above 122.51 to gain breathing room and above 123.17 to return immediate
focus to 2018 highs.
     SHORT-STERLING TECHS: (U18) 200-DMA & 99.260 Levels Key
*RES 4: 99.350 100-WMA
*RES 3: 99.300 High May 25-30
*RES 2: 99.260 Lows May 25 & 30 now resistance
*RES 1: 99.240 High June 8
*PREVIOUS CLOSE: 99.220
*SUP 1: 99.189 200-DMA
*SUP 2: 99.140 Lows May 30 - Apr 3
*SUP 3: 99.132 55-DMA, 21-WMA
*SUP 4: 99.131 100-DMA
*COMMENTARY: The lack of topside follow through on last week's highs has
resulted in the contract correcting lower. Bears take comfort in the 21-DMA
capping Friday and now look for a close below the 200-DMA to confirm initial
focus on 99.131-140 where key DMA and WMAs are noted. The 99.260 resistance
remains key this week. Bulls need a close above to gain breathing room and
return focus to 2018 highs.
     EURIBOR TECHS: (Z18) 100.275 Resistance Key Today
*RES 4: 100.290 - 55-DMA 
*RES 3: 100.275 - Low June 4 & 5 now resistance 
*RES 2: 100.265 - Alternating daily support/resistance 
*RES 1: 100.261 - 200-DMA
*PREVIOUS CLOSE: 100.255
*SUP 1: 100.240 - Bollinger band base
*SUP 2: 100.235 - Low May 31
*SUP 3: 100.215 - Low May 30
*SUP 4: 100.190 - 2018 Low May 29
*COMMENTARY: The 55-DMA confirmed significance with the recovery from 2018 lows
remaining capped on approach. The failure ahead of the 55-DMA provided the
impetus for a sell-off and close below the 200-DMA that sees immediate focus on
the 100.215-240 support region where the Bollinger base is noted. Bulls now need
a close above 100.275 to gain breathing room and above 100.295 to return focus
to 2018 highs.
     US 10-YR FUTURE TECHS: (U18) 118-30 & 120-00+ Key This Week
*RES 4: 120-24  Hourly resistance May 30a
*RES 3: 120-16  Hourly resistance May 30
*RES 2: 120-00+ High June 7
*RES 1: 119-23  Hourly resistance June 8
*PRICE: 119-14 @ 0430GMT
*SUP 1: 119-08+ 21-DMA
*SUP 2: 119-04  Low June 7
*SUP 3: 118-30  Low May 24
*SUP 4: 118-19  High May 22 now support
*COMMENTARY: The dip below 21-DMA was aggressively reversed although so far
bulls have failed to gain traction above the 100-DMA (119-26+). Bulls now need a
close above 120-00+ to confirm traction above the 100-DMA and add support to the
case for a move back to 121-03/12+.The 118-30 support remains key this week.
Bears continue to look for a close below to confirm a break of the 21-DMA and
shift initial focus back to 2018 lows.
     US 10-YR YIELD TECHS: 2.884 & 3.014 Levels Now Key
*RES 4: 3.050 - Low May 22 
*RES 3: 3.014 - High May 24 
*RES 2: 2.994 - High June 7 
*RES 1: 2.967 - Hourly support June 7 now resistance
*PRICE: 2.957 @ 0430GMT
*SUP 1: 2.921 - Hourly support June 8 
*SUP 2: 2.884 - Low June 7 
*SUP 3: 2.860 - Low June 1 
*SUP 4: 2.821 - Hourly support May 30
*COMMENTARY: Failure to take out 3.014 resulted in a sell-off Thursday and dips
below the 55-DMA (2.911). Bears now need a close below 2.884 lows from Thursday
to confirm a break of the 55-DMA and to return focus to 2.717-759 where Mar &
May lows are noted. Daily momentum studies are back at neutral levels and ready
for a fresh leg lower. Bulls need a close above 3.014 to confirm a break of the
21-DMA and target 2018 highs.
     EUROSTOXX50 TECHS: 3497.32-3540.03 Resistance Region Key
*RES 4: 3519.42 200-DMA 
*RES 3: 3508.07 21-DMA
*RES 2: 3497.32 High June 5
*RES 1: 3454.12 High June 8
*PREVIOUS CLOSE: 3447.30
*SUP 1: 3422.03 Low June 8 
*SUP 2: 3420.84 Low June 1 
*SUP 3: 3383.17 Alternating daily support/resistance 
*SUP 4: 3379.43 100-WMA
*COMMENTARY: Correcting O/S daily studies remain the key concern for bears but
failure to gain traction on pops above 55 (3476.14) & 100 (3470.35) DMAs is less
than ideal. Bulls need a close above 3497.32 to confirm traction above 55 &
100-DMAs and above 3540.03 to confirm a break of the 200-DMA and return focus to
2018 highs. Bears look for a close below 3420.84 to return focus to 3383.17.
