Treasury futures traded to a fresh cycle high Tuesday, reinforcing current bullish conditions. The contract has pierced resistance at 111-22+, Dec 3 ‘24 high. A clear break of this level would strengthen a bullish theme and open 112-02 and 112-13, Fibonacci projection points. Note that the daily trend condition is overbought, a pullback would be considered corrective and allow the overbought set-up to unwind. Firm support is at 110-00, the Feb 7 high.
