Trend conditions in WTI futures remain bearish. However, recent gains have highlighted a bullish corrective cycle and price is trading closer to its recent highs. The contract has cleared the 20-day EMA. Price has also traded above resistance at $79.56, the 50-day EMA and a key hurdle for bulls. A clear break of this average would strengthen the short-term bullish outlook. Initial key support to watch has been defined at $73.40, the Dec 16 low.
