US TREASURY FUTURES (Dec. - @TY) – Daily

graph

Currently: Long Looking to: Sell 135.11

As of 12/8/19 as of 9:50pm EST: 128.87

LAST WEEK: We suggested covering shorts and getting long at 129.16 with stops on longs on a weekly close below 128.88 and with a target of 135.11.

UPDATE: TY futures have come down in price over the last several trading sessions. The action has been bearish, but they are still hovering above key support at 128.70 (lowered slightly
from last week).

We would buy near 128.70 and hold on for a run up to 135.11. Honor stops on a daily close below 128.70, though.
