I am strictly a contrarian when it comes to trading bonds.
I get very interested in bonds when the long Treasury yield
has drifted far from its 40 wk M/A and / or when trader
advisory sentiment moves to extremes. The Long T is a little
overbought relative to its M/A, but advisory sentiment,
specifically Marketvane, is moving into territory that is
starting to signal excess bullishness. In recent weeks, the
Marketvane compilation of sentiment has kissed 70% bullish
once or twice and most recently stood at 69%. These are the
highest bull readings since mid-2005. Bullish sentiment is
not yet flat out extreme, but the 70% area signals to me
I should starting to think about shorting the bond.
