| Wesley Chapel, Florida, May 12, 2008 --
U.S. Treasury Bond futures (USM8) at the Chicago Board of Trade are
presently in a seven-week-old price downtrend on the daily bar chart.
However, prices have recently seen a solid short-covering bounce.
A bullish weekly
high close last Friday also provided the bond market bulls with some fresh
upside near-term technical momentum. The next upside technical objective for
the June T-Bond bulls is to produce a close above solid technical resistance
at 118 even. The next downside technical price objective for the bears is
closing prices below strong technical support at last week's low of 114
29/32.
“Importantly, by
using VantagePoint Intermarket Analysis Software (www.TraderTech.com),
a trader can glean very early clues on potential near-term price trend
changes, such as is the case with June T-Bonds, at present. These near-term
clues provided by VantagePoint can give a trader a key edge,” said Jim
Wyckoff analyst for
www.TradingEducation.com.
Below on the
VantagePoint daily bar chart for June Treasury Bonds that the Predicted
4-day EMA line is poised to soon produce a bullish signal by pushing above
the Actual 10-day SMA Close line. When a bullish line crossover signal
actually occurs, likely early this week, that would suggest June T-Bond
futures prices will at least experience a more significant upside corrective
bounce, if not an overall price trend change from down to up.

June T-Bonds had
also become oversold and were due soon for a corrective bounce.
VantagePoint’s Predicted Neural Index has recently moved to 1.0, also a short-term bullish
indicator. The Predicted Neural Index (PIndex), a proprietary indicator,
predicts whether or not a three-day simple moving average of the typical
price will be higher or lower two days in the future than it is today. The
Predicted Neural Index compares two three-day moving averages to one another
– today’s actual three-day moving average with a predicted three-day moving
average derived from intermarket analysis data.
When the
predicted simple three-day moving average value of typical prices is greater
than today’s actual three-day moving average value, the Predicted Neural
Index is "1.00," indicating that the market is expected to move higher over
the next two days. That type of information can be very helpful for
shorter-term traders establishing shorter-term positions in markets.
The Predicted
Neural Index is either correct or incorrect so its performance can be
measured in terms of percent correct to produce the accuracy statistics
cited for
VantagePoint,
which has a predictive accuracy rate of around 80% across a wide range of
markets and time spans in ongoing research.
