US 10-year Treasury yield bounced off lower rising trendline. Uptrend is intact supported by positive RSI sentiment and all Moving Averages rising. However, a close above 3.86 is needed for the uptrend to be extended towards 4%.r .
1.618 Projection of the latest correction is at 4.05, same level as the Q1 high close.

To reverse this bullish scenario a drop back below 3.54 is needed. First indication of that scenario to play out could be a break of lower rising trendline.

US 30-year Treasury yield has been moving in a rising channel pattern. Rejected at the resistance at around 4%. At the time of writing 30-year yields are breaking below its rising trendline i.e., breaking bearish out of its rising channel. Some support at 3.82
If closing below 3.72 the uptrend is likely to have reversed.

However, RSI is still positive indicating higher levels, it needs to close below 40 threshold to reverse that.
A break above 4.01 - which at the moments seems like a long shot to happen -  is likely to lead to at move to 4.20.
