On top of that, we also had an ***outright overweight duration position*** in the short end (2 year) area of the Gilt curve. Whilst the same fundamental analysis supported the view (weakening UK economy and the potential in 2006 for further Bank of England rate cuts), a significant backup in yields mid-month offered value to an ***outright position***.

Outright Futures Position
A position in a futures contract that is not offset.

In plain English
'Outright position' is undisputed position.
The word 'outright' in ***outright overweight duration position*** is so far from the word 'position' that it has very little influence on the word.
Consider my explanation against the "technical" alternatives you are offered.
