Brent futures remain in an uptrend and recent weakness proved to be a correction. The break of resistance at $80.03, the Dec 29 high, confirms a resumption of the current bull cycle and opens $81.17, the Nov 24 high. On the downside, Monday’s low of $77.04 represents a key short-term support. A break of this level would instead suggest scope for a deeper corrective pullback.
