Bonds: TLT – I wrote early last week that “on a 30 minute basis the 15 month poc recently migrated to 126.66. If price remains below this level it could be a negative. I would much prefer TLT printing above this level if I was looking at the long side.” TLT has fallen this week to print its lowest level since late October.

Gold: The major poc recently migrated back up to 121.00 and currently chart prints above this level in a strong price location.
