US 30YR FUTURE TECHS: (Z9) Holding pattern
*RES 3: 169-31/03 Low Jul 22 2016/High Sep 28 2016
*RES 2: 167-23 76.4% Fib 177-11 - 136-16

*SUP 1: 157-17 Low Sep 13
*SUP 2: 157-02/30 Jul 5 high/ 50% retracement Oct 2018 low to July 2016 high
*SUP 3: 156-05 100-dma
The over-arching outlook remains negative, but 30yr futures have stabilised at
the lows, with the holding pattern likely to carry over into the Fed decision.
The first target is the Friday low at 157-17 ahead of Fib support kicking in
just above the 157 handle. Last week's weakness has also opened the risk of a
retreat back toward early August lows and the 100-dma at 156-05. Firmer
resistance sits between the 166-29/167-18 levels, which bulls may find
difficulty topping for now.
