"Yesterday, Bond prices climbed to an important level of resistance at the Falling Trendline before being pushed back to the 25-Day Moving Average. These indicators are important because rates will not significantly improve unless prices can move above this ceiling.

In the news today, the ADP Report came in worse than expected--showing U.S. private firms shed 697,000 jobs in February. Adding to insult was a downward revision to January’s number, which erased another 90,000 jobs. Also today, the Obama administration released its Housing Rescue Plan designed to help responsible homeowners.

Currently, prices are in the midst of a trading range. Therefore, I recommend floating, but be prepared to lock if the situation changes."
