Brent futures traded heavy into the Thursday close, with the downside accelerating on the break of $84.00 handle support earlier in the week. For now, the outlook remains neutral. On the downside, a move below $79.10, Feb 6 low, is required to reinstate a bearish theme. For bulls to recoup any sway over markets, prices need to top the Feb 13 highs at 86.95.
