A bearish theme in Gilt futures remains intact, however, a strong rally this week suggests the contract remains in a short-term corrective cycle. Price has traded through the 20-day EMA. Yesterday’s gain resulted in a test of the 50-day EMA, at 94.85. A break would strengthen bullish conditions. MA studies continue to highlight a downtrend. The bear trigger has been defined at 91.19, the Aug 17 low. Initial support to watch lies at 92.38, the Aug 23 low.
