Bobl futures remain in a short-term corrective cycle and the contract has extended to new lows. Price has recently traded through support at the 20-day EMA - at 117.430, but more consequentially trendline support drawn from the Jan 15 low at 117.048 has given way. Clearance of the trendline would strengthen a bearish threat and open 116.700, the Jan 30 low. Initial firm resistance to watch is 117.600, the Feb 13 high.
