WTI futures traded higher last week and the bull theme remains intact as the contract extends its climb. The move higher has exposed resistance at $81.50, the Jan 3 high and a bull trigger. Clearance of this hurdle is required to strengthen a bullish theme and open $83.27, the Dec1 high. The broader trend outlook still appears bearish. A reversal lower would expose the bear trigger that has been defined at $70.31, the Dec 9 low.
