Yield Watch: How Technical Indicators Are Shaping the 10-Year Treasury Yield
This week, we’re taking a closer look at the technical indicators driving the US 10-year Treasury yield. Following last week’s article on the yield’s seasonal pattern, which typically peaks from August to October, we’re now focusing on key trendlines that are creating a strong technical setup for the weeks ahead.
Key Technical Indicators: Two Crucial Trendlines in Play
The weekly chart for the 10-year Treasury yield highlights two long-term trendlines that are currently intersecting, creating a significant technical resistance area. Each of these trendlines represents distinct aspects of the yield’s movement, and both are being approached simultaneously, adding weight to the resistance level.
The first trendline is an upward-sloping line that had been in place until July of this year, providing support for the yield’s rise. After this trendline was broken in July, the yield is now approaching it again from below, effectively testing it as a potential resistance level.
The second trendline is a downward-sloping line that originated in October of last year. This line has been capping the yield’s upward movement over the past year, keeping it within a broader downward trend. Now, as the yield rises, it’s approaching this downward trendline, which could also act as resistance.
With these two key lines intersecting, the yield is facing a “dual resistance” zone—a potentially powerful technical indicator. This setup could signal a reversal or at least a slowing of the yield’s upward momentum.

Seasonal Shift: Potential Decline in November
As noted in last week’s article, the 10-year Treasury yield has historically risen from August to October. With November now beginning, the seasonal trend may shift toward lower yields. While the seasonal pattern and trendlines are independent indicators, they’re converging to suggest a similar outlook: the potential for the 10-year yield to face resistance and possibly decline.
Why This Matters for Investors
For bond investors, understanding these technical indicators can offer insights into potential price movements. Because bond prices generally move inversely to yields, a decline in the 10-year Treasury yield supports higher bond prices. Watching how the yield interacts with these intersecting trendlines over the next few weeks will be key to understanding the broader bond market outlook.
