Morning Corner 7.1.11

30 Yr Bond (weekly info)
new high 126.469
trend=up
high= 126.469
rev= 124.875; mid= 125.672


Looks like the selling of the long bond has begun in earnest now that QE2 is over. Sold hard enough to send it below its SMA(21) & SMA(55). It tested and failed the 23.6% retrace. It also has made a weekly 3LB reversal down.



CCI (weekly info)
new low 625.78
trend=down
low= 625.78
rev= 685.42; mid= 655.60


Commodities are heading for the exit. Barely avoided making a monthly 3LB reversal down. Trying to get back above its 23.6% retrace. Tested its SMA(21) a couple of weeks ago and failed.
