Having printed a Doji candle earlier this week, Aussie 3y bond futures continue

to trade sideways as markets still await further technical queues. Having hit

all time highs at 99.410 on August 8, corrective pullbacks are still the theme,

with markets eyeing near-term support at 99.257. A more prolonged pause in the

uptrend looks the most likely outcome from here, with decent resistance layered

above at the 3% upper Bollinger Band. For the outlook to weaken, markets need to

clear Fib support at 99.257, ahead of the 50-dma at 99.178.
