OUTLOOK: Price Signal Summary - Bund Futures Breach Key Resistance
OUTLOOK
- In the FI space, Bund futures are trading sharply higher today and this has resulted in a print above key resistance and the bull trigger at 135.66. A clear break of this hurdle would confirm a resumption of the medium-term uptrend and pave the way for a climb towards the 136.00 handle and 136.77, a Fibonacci projection. On the downside, initial firm support lies at 134.46, the 20-day EMA.
- A bear threat in Gilt futures remains present. With the contract still trading closer to its recent lows, sights are on the next key support at 98.11, the Sep 2 low and a bear trigger. A break of this level would strengthen the bearish theme and open 98.00. On the upside, key near-term resistance is seen at 99.40, the 20-day EMA. A clear breach of this average is required to instead highlight a possible reversal.
