BTP futures traded higher again Thursday and a short-term corrective bull cycle remains in play - for now. The contract has breached resistance at 111.17, the Oct 12 high. This has strengthened current conditions and exposes 112.53, a Fibonacci retracement point. On the downside, initial firm support lies at 109.83, the 20-day EMA, where a break is required to signal a possible reversal. This would reinstate the recent bearish theme.
