WTI futures remain in a clear uptrend despite last week’s sharp sell-off on Mar 9, which signals potential for a deeper short-term pullback. This would allow the recent overbought trend condition to unwind. The next firm area of support is seen at the 20-day EMA, at $102.88. A clear breach of this average would open the 50-day EMA further out at $92.95. On the upside, the key resistance and bull trigger is the Mar 7 high of $130.50.
