Potential Topping Patterns in Treasury Yields
Few charts have mattered more to investors recently than the yield on the 10-year Treasury note. After a strong move to the upside, some contrary signals may be emerging.
The first pattern on today’s chart is the potential “hanging man” candlestick on October 19. It was followed by a lower close, and then a trio of bearish outside days. Such price action may be consistent with a reversal.
Second, MACD made a lower high in late October as yields inched higher. That kind of divergence (marked in yellow) can reflect exhaustion of a trend.
Third, the recent lower highs have produced a descending triangle. While this isn’t typically a reversal pattern, the tightening prices may indicate the uptrend has lost strength.
Next, TNX has come within roughly 20 basis points of the yield on the
US02Y two-year Treasury note. That level for the yield curve was the peak in September 2022 before it inverted under 100 basis points. Is it also holding the longer rate down?
Finally, we previously identified 5.25 percent as a potential upside level. However, TNX has approached 5 percent without being able to close above it. Some traders may view the “nice round number” as a logical place for the move to end.
