Brent futures remain bearish and short-term gains are considered corrective. A bearish theme follows the sharp sell-off on Jan 3 and 4. A resumption of weakness would expose $75.64, the Dec 9 low and bear trigger, where a break would confirm a resumption of the downtrend that started on Nov 7. This would pave the way for weakness towards $75.00 and below. On the upside, initial key resistance has been defined at $87.00, the Jan 3 high.
