***BOND UPDATE. Germany bonds to rally WHILST the US curve remains a LONTERM STEEPENER 12.03.2018.***
BONDS UPDATE :
KEEP an eye on GERMANY this week : Providing it can maintain steady gains then this should lead to a more major BOND BOUNCE. We have NEW years highs on schatz! Should we achieve additional highs across the rest of the curve then this will KICK START many of the WEEKLY and MONTHLY RSI dislocations.
The next BIG TRADE is US STEEPENERS : As mentioned before many RSI’s are WAY over sold and the recent POP to the 61.8% rets served to recognise the BIG BREAK level. If we close above any of the 61.8% rets this should TRIGGER a sustained long-term steepening.
1) Yields are close to breaching levels where we will see a MAJOR DROP
2) (US 5yr and UK 10yr). ALL durations are stretched, quarterly, monthly, weekly and daily… this is RARE!
3) Looking at the previous Equity piece, European stocks look a LONGTERM failure thus I firmly believe this mean BONDS rally.
3) Germany 26’s bonds based well as do the FUTURES post yesterdays intraday REVERSAL.
4) UK yields have a LOFTY RSI and UKTI POISED to bounce. UK 10yr all eyes on a continued breach of 1.489 (10yr Gilts).
5) US 10 Breakevens have a LOFTY WEEKLY and DAILY RSI.
6) Nearly ALL US curves rejected the recent steepening BIAS at MAJOR MULTI YEAR 61.8% ret, the RSI’s remain low however. If the 61.8% ret’s are breached we steepen in a BIG WAY.
** US curves will be a BIG trade once the 61.8% retracements are breached. **

****PLEASE READ ..PRE NON FARM BOND UPDATE. Key levels to watch for post NF given yesterdays MAJOR reversal in GERMANY. 09.03.2018.***
BONDS UPDATE : Yesterdays German and UK bond bounce established some pretty MAJOR bollinger downside pierces, all we need post NON FARM (NF) is NEW weekly highs. Should we achieve new highs then this will KICK START many of the WEEKLY and MONTHLY RSI dislocations.
The RIGHT CLOSES and this could be the start of a SUSTAINED BOND rally ACROSS the board.
A VERY IMPORTANT POST NON FARM CLOSES so initial reaction MIGHT not be the first to respond to.
1) Yields are close to breaching levels where we will see a MAJOR DROP
2) (US 5yr and UK 10yr). ALL durations are stretched, quarterly, monthly, weekly and daily… this is RARE!
3) Looking at the previous Equity piece, European stocks look a LONGTERM failure thus I firmly believe this mean BONDS rally.
3) Germany 26’s bonds based well as do the FUTURES post yesterdays intraday REVERSAL.
4) UK yields have a LOFTY RSI and UKTI POISED to bounce. UK 10yr all eyes on a continued breach of 1.489 (10yr Gilts).
5) US 10 Breakevens have a LOFTY WEEKLY and DAILY RSI.
6) Nearly ALL US curves rejected the recent steepening BIAS at MAJOR MULTI YEAR 61.8% ret, the RSI’s remain low however. If the 61.8% ret’s are breached we steepen in a BIG WAY.

BOND and US CURVE MONTHLY UPDATE. European bond yields falling. I remain positive toward a US curve steepening despite last months reversal.. 05.03.2018.
BONDS UPDATE : European bond yields falling and US yet to follow.
For me the yield drop is a bigger association with a FAILING stock market.
1) Yields are close to breaching levels where we will see a MAJOR DROP (US 5yr and UK 10yr). ALL durations are stretched, quarterly, monthly, weekly and daily… this is RARE!
2) Looking at the previous Equity piece, European stocks look a LONGTERM failure thus I firmly believe this mean BONDS rally.
3) Germany 26’s bonds have based well.
4) UK yields have a LOFTY RSI and UKTI POISED to bounce. UK 10yr all eyes on a breach of 1.489 (10yr Gilts).
5) US 10 Breakevens have a LOFTY WEEKLY and DAILY RSI.
6) Nearly ALL US curves rejected the recent steepening BIAS at MAJOR MULTI YEAR 61.8% ret, the RSI’s remain low however. If the 61.8% ret’s are breached we steepen in a BIG WAY.
** US curves will be a BIG trade once the 61.8% retracements are breached. **
Bond markets : Yields are finally stalling against the backdrop of many dislocated RSI’s. The closes are important prequal to the end of the month.
US BONDS : All US yields are now above multi year trendlines but daily RSI’s are lofty, especially the 5yr sector. The US 5yr is a special case as the RSI is dislocated on a monthly and quarterly period.
US curves look to have found a BASE against the historically LOW RSI’s but have nearly ALL stalled at the multiyear 61.8% ret, its worth waiting for the monthly closes.
Europe is a very mixed bag and PERIPHERAL markets void of REAL MONEY positioning. It has become a bit of a HEDGE FUND CHOP FEST.

BOND and US CURVE MONTHLY UPDATE. Yields are topping out. I think its an OLD FASHIONED STOCKS DOWN BONDS UP. 28.2.2018.
BONDS UPDATE : US 5yr yield drop could be a BIG ONE.
1) Yields are close to breaching levels where we will see a MAJOR DROP (US 5yr and UK 10yr). ALL durations are stretched, quarterly, monthly, weekly and daily… this is RARE!
2) Looking at the previous Equity piece, European stocks look a LONGTERM failure thus I firmly believe this mean BONDS rally.
3) Germany 26’s bonds are basing finally.
4) UK yields have a LOFTY RSI and UKTI POISED to bounce, all eyes on a breach of 1.489 (10yr Gilts).
5) US 10 Breakevens have a LOFTY WEEKLY and DAILY RSI.
6) Nearly ALL US curves rejected the recent steepening BIAS at MAJOR MULTI YEAR 61.8% ret, the RSI’s remain low however. If the 61.8% ret’s are breached we steepen in a BIG WAY.
