Brent futures posted their worst down day of the year yesterday taking out the
200-dma and posting as low at $67.02. Despite the bounce off the lows the
downside focus remains with bears looking to take out yesterday's low to open
the March 28 low down at $65.59. Below here would open the March 8 low at $63.91
ahead of the 50% retracement at $63.00. Bulls need to close back above the
200-dma at $68.70 to stabilise the outlook and target the 21-dma at $71.00.
