Technical Outlook
BONDS (DEC) 10/12/2009: Stochastics trending lower at midrange will tend to reinforce a move lower especially if support levels are taken out.

The next downside target is now at 118-010. The next area of resistance is around 121-080 and 122-280, while 1st support hits today at 118-270 and below there at 118-010.
