Mortgage Rates were unable to break out above the 100 day moving average last so mortgage rates ended the week about where they started. If you look at the mortgage bond chart below you can see mortgage bonds traded in a tight channel last week after failing to continue to rally from previous week and fell back below the 100 day moving average. Bonds closed right at the top of the channel to end the week but failed to break through so we are recommending LOCKING your mortgage rate on any loans closing in the next 30 days, if you are more than 45 days out you could float to see if mortgage bonds can get some momentum to break through the 100 day moving average but if bonds break below the floor of support we would recommend switching to a locking stance.

Mortgage Rates were on a roller coaster ride last week due mostly to global trade issues with countries considering back and forth trade tariffs. If you look at the mortgage bond chart below you can see mortgage bonds hit resistance last week at the 100 day moving average and were turned lower in a sell off on Monday with the red candle. Bonds found floor of support on Tuesday at the 25 day moving average and rallied back higher into the fourth of July holiday. Mortgage Bonds followed through and rallied higher up to the 100 day moving average on Thursday ahead of the Jobs Report. After the Jobs report on Friday, bonds were able to finally break above a dual ceiling of resistance they have been battling for weeks which was formed by the 100 day moving average and a technical Fibonacci level. This is a good sign so we are recommending FLOATING your mortgage rate to start the week to see if bonds can stay above this dual layer and rally higher which would move mortgage interest rates lower.

Mortgage Rates were able to move lower last week after mortgage bonds found a floor of support and rallied higher. If you look at the mortgage bond chart below you can see mortgage bonds sold off until finding a floor of support of Wednesday and were able to rebound and rally higher on Thursday and again on Friday. Mortgage bonds were stopped again at the 50 day moving average which they have failed to break through so we are cautious that bonds can break through this ceiling. The Stock market is selling off in the face of trade wars overseas and mortgage bonds are still not able to break above the 50 day moving average so we are recommending to very careful FLOAT your mortgage rate to see if can break above the 50 day moving average but if stocks recover, we would quickly switch to a locking stance.
