Brent futures Tuesday reversed Monday's sell-off and negated the bearish reversal pattern we highlighted earlier this week. The break above $53.33 confirms a resumption of the underlying uptrend, paving the way for strength towards $55.14 next, a Fibonacci projection. On the downside, key near-term support has been defined at $50.56, Jan 4 low. A break of this level is required to highlight a short-term reversal.
