US 10-Year Treasury Note Yield Weekly Chart; Long-Term Sideways Symmetrical Triangle Forecasts a Big Move Going Forward


The US 10-year yield is at a historic juncture. There is no more room in the apex of the sideways symmetrical triangle so it is time for the yield to make a bounce or die decision. As the thick bars show, the projected move from the triangle will be 125 to 150 bips.

The breakout higher in yields would occur from 4.30% and the daily chart is trying to have an inverted H&S pattern play out. If yield moves above 4.30% and begins trending higher, the 5.55% to 5.80% range is the upside target.

Conversely, if yield fails from the triangle, and drops below 4.05%, that targets the 2.55% to 2.80% yield range on the downside.

The 20 and 50-week moving averages are lining out sideways at 4.13% to 4.24% within the apex of the triangle; use these two metrics for an early indication on which way she's breaking.

The 200-wk MA is coming up and flattening out at 3.99%. Perhaps Fed Chairman Powell, when he speaks at 2:30 PM EST today, will tell the tale forward. Here is a link to the prior 10-year yield chart explaining the inverted H&S. This information is for educational and entertainment purposes only.

Note Added 9:30 AM EST: As everyone waits for Pope Powell to bring the tablets down from On High and tell global traders how to trade, the 2-year yield is 3.57%, 5-year 3.83%, 10-year 4.24% and 30-year 4.86%. The 2-10 spread, the yield curve, is at 67 bips.

Note Added 4:55 PM EST: Pope Powell's edicts are a nothing burger for yields. The 2-year yield is 3.57%, 5-year 3.83%, 10-year 4.24% and 30-year 4.86%. The 2-10 spread, the yield curve, is at 67 bips.
