BTP futures traded lower Wednesday but did find support on Thursday. The contract has recently pulled back from 116.36, the Jun 2 high. This highlights a developing short-term bearish threat and if correct, suggests potential for a deeper pullback near-term. The next firm support lies at 113.53, the 61.8% retracement of the May 26 - Jun 2 rally. Key resistance has been defined at 116.36, a break would reinstate a bullish theme.
