The Big Bond Bear Short

ISHARES IV PLC USD TRSRY BD 20+YR UCITS ETF USD DISTLSE

Description

30+ Year USTs forming a clear inverted cup and handle. With stocks pushing upwards this is destined to fall. First target 455.

I'm actually bullish USTs because there is still the election on the way, it's a nice hedge as part of my portfolio but I won't fight the price action here.

Comment

The attempted downward move was quickly snuffed out by equity market churn. It's acting as a nice hedge right now. I'd say this idea is invalid if it goes beyond 505.

Comment

The move has finally materialised. Expecting a bounce at 465 before continuing downwards.

Comment

Bounced just before 465. With OPEX next week I'd take some / all off the table and wait out the week.

Trade closed: target reached

Bounce actually happened below 450 before equity markets and USD turned, making this a good long since then.
