the key to the Ten Year Treasury Yield

I’ve highlighted an area w/ a blue rectangle.

Folks, that’s 5 waves up so – ultimately we need another 5 wave move up to occur.

I think that’s in work as of the close last week and have projected ten year yields to spike to 3.6-4.0 for now.

Going to be interesting to watch …

notice the 5 wave move UP … need another 5 wave move up. Believe that’s happening right now

 

Interest rate forecast …updated

8/28/2014: the 2.358 level did not hold.  In fact, in the way I look at the market, the PATTERN caused the gap. the gap below the pattern is a big deal.  I’ve shown the projection/pattern that “caused” the low at 2.322.  right now, looks like our low back on August 15, 2014 will be attacked.

Main20140828232643I’m not trying to call for a increase in interest rates or a continued fall in interest rates.  frankly, I don’t have clue about the fundamental aspects of what the Fed is doing or not doing.  What I do know is PATTERNS and sometimes they work (which they do — alot) and sometimes they don’t.  This pattern, below, clearly failed at the level we were expecting to hold. but here is the deal …on the way up w/ interest rates it was CLEARLY 5 waves up … so this means we are CORRECTING and there is, supposed (the operative word) be ANOTHER WAVE UP ….

8/22/2014 – if you read below you’ll read “my bet is on the TEN YEAR holding this low and starting back up ….”  If that is the case then we have a VERY NICE PATTERN appearing on the Ten Year Treasury Yield that has multiple confirmations going for it ….remember folks, this is a 5 minute chart.

also, I have “copy/pasted” the earlier this week post on Jackson Hole and the fixed income structure …

the PATTERN:

  • it’s a nice corrective pattern a-b-c.  expectation is that “c” is in work and “should” take yields down to 2.358.
  • c = 1.618*a right at ….2.358.
  • a 1.618 extension of the “b” wave takes us right to ….2.358
  • a retracement from the “key” low that we have watched for a while is .618 at …. you guessed it …2.358.

when all of these numbers line up … in this case SUPPORT usually occurs.

make it a great weekend …

one last … I have ABSOLUTELY NO IDEA what Janet Yellen and the FED did this week or what in the world was said in the meeting minutes.  Frankly, I don’t care … PATTERNS, PATTERNS, PATTERNS.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                             

CLIFF NOTES: folks, follow this link to catch up on the Fixed Income story: http://bartscharts.com//?s=fixed+income

CLIFF NOTES 2: this is a tough one … the pattern in the fixed income market (30 year) failed and has gone much higher//the pattern on TBT failed.  HOWEVER, the long standing target on the TEN YEAR Treasury Yield was hit on Friday.  Quite frankly, I didn’t think it would get hit as the 2.4 level provide some nice support and then, ultimately failed.   So we are at THE critical level for the rate structure on the 10 year.  I’ll stand by my guns this is corrective in nature, but the Ten Year needs to stop here or we’ll vacuum lower and rates will continue to plummet.  I also updated the 30 year count to show a potential NEW HIGH if this count is correct.  I will be the first to admit that our pattern failed on the 30 year/TBT.  In fact, we found the support for the long bond ( http://bartscharts.com/2014/01/04/thelma-and-louis-and-fixed-income/ ) and it was at a very crucial level at the time of that post.  It held and since then has rocketed higher (lower rates).

CLIFF NOTES 3: we are at a CRUCIAL CRUCIAL LEVEL …. not trying to be wishy washy as we have to take a stand but I can see the case of either direction. But in order to take a stand and some risk – my bet is on the TEN YEAR holding this low and starting back up ….

CHEERS!

HI, I am fully aware the FED is leveraged beyond thunder dome !!!!

Fixed Income …at the inflection point

CLIFF NOTES: target hit on the long bond, last target hit on TBT, RYJUX hitting some key support.  No doubt the move up from the neckline and multi month consolidation is a big deal and now we’ll see if the neckline is attacked as we are suggesting. Note, it already came down and bounced off the neckline for a very nice LONG Bond opportunity.  W/ this many patterns completing there is, of course 1 of 2 things that are going to occur … THEY WORK or DO NOT WORK.

CLIFF NOTES 2: we showed this chart before but note the FRACTAL that was present in the LONG BOND is EXACTLY the same as 10/1987. Not making any crazy crash forecasts just bringing it up that the PATTERN was EXACT.

Watch these levels very very closely ….

TBT update …

CLIFF NOTES: have added the time component to the chart.  NOTE the blue rectangle of the last correction (08/2012-05/2013) and how that correction is exactly the same tomorrow.  Expecting 62 to hold for resumption or at least a bounce.  If not, a big sell off should occur…
