A sharp sell-off in WTI futures Tuesday has defined a key resistance at $80.94, Feb 7 high. A break of this hurdle is required to reinstate the recent bullish theme that would open $82.89, the Jan 23 high and a key resistance. The contract is trading lower today, extending this week’s bearish move and sights are on $73.80, the Feb 22 low. A breach of this level would strengthen a bearish threat. Initial resistance is seen at $78.06, yesterday’s high.
