ridethepig | A Decisive Break in BundsThe positional strength in Bunds was just too strong to contain, the rest is obvious.
Now play the topside, retraces into buyers jurisdictions at -0.35 and -0.50 will attract a lot of selling interest in bunds (hence pushing yields up) and triggering the capitulation. We are still set for an emphasis of consolidation across Global Equities, this is still all part of the 'knee jerk reaction' phase. Many large hands were caught badly on the sharp moves lower, a legendary retrace is offering the opportunity for final repositioning flows for a secondary leg lower into 2021/2022. Before we can then move higher for the rest of the decade. For those tracking German Equities, the overshoots in DAX were very bad:
Strong Resistance 0.15% <=> Soft Resistance -0.15% <=> Mid point -0.30% <=> Soft Support -0.35% <=> Strong Support -0.50%
This leg higher in Yields is no surprises for those tracking the conversations on the eurobonds. The breakup in Bunds will also carry important implications for the EURUSD chart and 'Eurobond' positional flows:
" So we are gradually getting round to what is an important component in the process of formation in the currency. Like a trojan horse, Eurobonds are being pushed in from the mounting political and geopolitical pressure. The initial 500bn EUR will still require approval from the block, and may not be a huge sum considering a historic crash, however it is an incremental step in a positive direction. It is not really about the effectiveness of the implementation, and this is decided from completely different factors and distribution is not that clear. "
The market loves it...there is no question, we are seeing Europe strike a major expression on the world during this crisis and forming a protected outpost from an economic standpoint. The charming twist to this story, will be to track the pressure this applies to rates.I do not like the 'business as usual' story because of the reply:
Clearly things are looking awful on the inside awful despite how politicians and media are selling the reopenings...I have never seen anything like this in my life, the unpleasant feeling that we will see a second round of cases in the Northern Hemisphere remains and that will need to be given some elbow room... Consumer confidence remains the one to track; the glimmer of panic appearing and equities will snap, the same move we have been tracking.
All pullbacks should attract buying interest and outlook for Bunds remain in " Buy ". As usual thanks for keeping your support coming with likes, comments and etc!
EURO-BUND
ridethepig | DE 10-Year Yield DailyI will try to keep this one relatively short, a very important update to the German 10-year benchmark yield. This is one to track as it is coming after a fresh attempt of a breakdown in EURUSD for the NY open. Here we can see important macro forces in play with extreme risk on the radar via Coronavirus with large sharks being forced to reposition and rebalance defensively for risk-off flows.
European Equities (DAX) will do the same dance:
Although we did find an all be it temporary but rather traditional bid from the 50% retrace ... the move is clearly running out of steam and softening the near-term optimism around a temporary rebound. This will attract sellers and those with soft hands to start taking European risk off the table. In my books the mid and long term pictures are far clearer for Europe. This will be a lot easier to see when I upload the Weekly DE10Y Yield chart with the close. In any case, the key levels in the map to play are as follows:
Strong Resistance -0.15% <=> Soft Resistance -0.25% <=> Mid point -0.34% <=> Soft Support -0.45% <=> Strong Support -0.60%
This will also carry important implications for the EURUSD chart so a round of chart updates on the FX, Commodity and to a lot lesser extent French, Spanish and Italian Equities front necessary over the coming sessions. As usual thanks for keeping your support coming with likes, comments and etc!
ridethepig | Bund Yields & Rate DifferentialsOn the other side of the Atlantic, a timely update to Bund yields with interest rate traders starting to position for 2020. The better prints from Germany are in the spotlight and this increase in interest is accentuated by the next fortnight of data deprivation. Here I am looking for DE10Y to re-test -0.234 next week. EUR$ remains in play to the topside with all eyes on 1.25 long term targets:
View on Bund Yields is shifting towards the buy side leaves me comfortable leaning into rallies with -0.077 and 0.081 as extension targets in the swing. Will get excited about the topside on a clean break of the highs in US Yields:
Overall, I want to be constructive on Bund yields here given relative ECB change via Lagarde, much tougher towards the fiscal side and improving relations. On the Brexit front, the restrictions that are like to be incorporated into the new round of positioning for Brexit transitioning flows (should be completed by H120), are likely to be "conditional" on US interference into future trade deals and thus not damaging for European assets till Q320.
For those tracking the rate differentials charts:
While those tracking the flows in FX will know the EUR$ map already:
The floor has been placed, expecting Euro to begin rallying as we enter into the final pages of the cycle. US numbers are holding but is clear they wont be able to hold more than Q1 2020. Smart money will now position before waters become choppy.
Thanks for keeping your support coming with likes and jumping into the comments with your charts and views.

Things are a lot clearer in the FX board as we begin the flows in EURUSD:

German Yields at Extreme LowsHere we are tracking the completion? of an ABC sequence. This should attract buying interest in usual circumstances however alarm bells are ringing after the ECB could only go one month with the tap turned off.
Tracking these lows very carefully over the coming days with risk from Brexit, Meuller and Turkey around the corner.
All the best.

Bund right above major support, prepare for a potential bounce!
Bund is hovering really nicely above major support at 160.40 (Fibonacci extension, Fibonacci retracement, horizontal swing low support) and a bounce could occur at this level. If price breaks through our descending resistance line, this would add much more conviction to the potential bounce up to 161.88 resistance (Fibonacci retracement, horizontal overlap resistance).
RSI (34) also sees a descending resistance line holding price down really well. Only a break above this could trigger a corresponding bullish bounce in price.

Bund (DE10YBEUR) - bullish signals in trendAfter an analisys, on the weekly we can see how the price shape a bullish harami.
Going on the daily chart we can see that the price action in trend has started with a doji that will be a resistance point.
Now we are a bit late with time for entry but the price pierced 38,2% Fibo.
Anyway, I think we can go long with first target at the other Fibo level at 164,78 price level with SL at low of the doji.
I'll glad if someone will give below suggestions or his prospectives.
Thanks.
