The 7-10 year T-Bond ETF (IEF) opened weak and closed strong on Tuesday to forge an outside reversal day or bullish engulfing pattern. This is potentially positive, but we have yet to see follow through with a break above first resistance at 105. Also notice that the Commodity Channel Index (CCI) remains below momentum resistance at zero. Watch these levels for a short-term breakout that would be bullish for Treasuries and possibly bearish for equities.
