BTP futures traded to a fresh cycle low on Oct 19 as the contract extended the reversal from 111.17, the Oct 12 high. This resulted in a print below key support at 107.62, the Oct 4 low. A clear breach of this level would confirm a resumption of the long-term downtrend and open 107.08, a Fibonacci projection. 111.17 marks the key resistance. A break is required to highlight a possible short-term reversal. Short-term gains are considered corrective.
