Brent futures have pulled back from recent highs but have also found support and recovered from Monday's low of $54.49. A resumption of weakness would pave the way for a test of the 20-day EMA at $53.75 and if the average is breached, scope would exist for a deeper corrective decline and allow an overbought trend reading to unwind. On the upside, key resistance is at $57.42/44. A break would instead confirm a resumption of the uptrend.
