BRENT TECHS
  • RES 4: $91.99 - 2.236 proj of the Jan 8 - 29 - Feb 5 price swing

  • SUP 3: $76.66 - Low Jun 4 and a key support
  • SUP 4: $75.31 - Low Feb 5 

The trend condition in Brent futures remains bullish, however, a corrective cycle is in play and the contract has pierced both the the 50-day EMA and the 50% retracement for the Jun 4 - Jul 5 bull leg to print a pullback low at $81.51. Should prices stabilise ahead, a continuation higher would refocus attention on key short-term resistance at $87.95, the Jul 5 high. $79.32 is next key support.
