Bund futures resumed their downtrend last week breaking below a former support at 170.81, Sep 17 low. This reinforces a bearish theme and maintains the price sequence of lower lows and lower highs signalling scope for an extension lower. The focus is on 169.90 next, a Fibonacci projection. Key short-term resistance has been defined at 171.96, Sep 21 high. A break above this level is required to ease bearish pressure.
