Furthermore, recent gains have resulted in a breach of resistance at 132.83, the May 16 high. These factors strengthen a bullish theme and signal scope for a continuation higher, towards 133.42 next, a 1.764 projection of the May 31 - Jun 5 - 10 price swing. Initial support is 131.76, the 50-day EMA.
  • Gilt futures remain bullish and price is trading closer to its latest highs. Recent gains resulted in a break of 97.86, the Jun 4 high and 98.05, 76.4% of the May 16 - 29 bear cycle. This highlights a resumption of the bull cycle that started May 29. Note too that resistance at 98.89, the May 16 high, has been pierced. A clear break of it would reinforce bullish conditions.
