What is wrong with $TLT these days?

The TLT is lagging far behind where it ought to be, as measured by the 10-year and the 30-year Treasury Note&Bond Futures.

Why is that? It could very well be a sign of some dislocation, or a liquidity issue within the market. It could also be an opportunity to sell the futures ($ZBH2017, $ZNH2017) and buy the cash market ($TLT).

Something is out of line here from what I can see.

You can clearly see the base formations in all of these markets and couple together the weak economic data coming out lately together with the monstrous short position in these futures markets and you have a recipe for a large advance here in all 3 of these markets.
