The trend condition in Treasury futures is unchanged, a bull cycle remains in play and the current consolidation marks a pause in the uptrend. A bull theme is reinforced by MA studies that are in a bull-mode condition, highlighting a dominant uptrend. Recent gains have resulted in a print above 111-22+, the Dec 3 ‘24 high. A clear breach of this level would open 112-02 and 112-13, Fibonacci projections. Firm support is 110-00, the Feb 7 high. The 20-day EMA was tested Tuesday, but prices firmly bounced off support.
