Bund futures remain in a downtrend, however, the contract has entered a short-term bullish corrective cycle. This week’s gains reinforce this bullish theme and price has cleared resistance around the 20-day EMA. The average intersects at 141.62 and the clear break signals scope for a stronger bounce. This opens 143.68, a Fibonacci retracement. Key support and the bear trigger has been defined at 135.52, the Sep 28 low.
