BTP futures traded lower again Thursday, but recovered off the low into the close. Following Wednesday’s bearish close, focus remains on the downside, with 119.57, the Jul 21 low a key focus. This rebuffs the formation of a bull flag and dents the bullish short-term trend condition. Further weakness opens 118.60 and 115.72 below.
