Brent futures extended the downtrend to close below the 100-dma for the first
time since Feb 25. The short-term outlook remains neutral with downside focus on
the 38.2% fibo of the Dec-Apr rise at $65.79. Below here opens the Mar 28 low at
$65.59, ahead of a run at the Mar 8 low at $64.02. Bulls need to recover the
200-dma at $68.98 to reignite upside momentum towards the 50-dma & May 28 high
at $70.58/59. Above here would put the focus back on the ytd high at $74.75.
