Brent futures traded sharply higher yesterday and for now, the contract is holding on to its gains. It is still possible that the recent rally is a correction, however, the clear break of the 50-day EMA, suggests potential for a continuation higher near-term. Scope is seen for a climb towards $78.95 next, a Fibonacci retracement. Initial firm support to watch is $73.57, the 20-day EMA. A clear break would be seen as an early reversal signal.
