  • SUP 4: 94.20 Low Jul 13

Gilt futures traded lower yesterday and breached first support at 96.11, the Jul 21 low. This highlights a potential bearish threat and attention is on support at the 20-day EMA, at 95.64. A breach of this average would signal scope for a deeper pullback, potentially towards 95.20, the Jul 18 low and 94.58, the Jul 17 low. On the upside, key short-term resistance is unchanged at 97.84, the high on Jul 19. A break would resume the uptrend.
