WTI futures remain above last week’s lows and key short-term support has been defined at $73.80, the Feb 22 low. Moving average studies are in a bear-mode position and for now, this continues to highlight a downtrend. A break of the $73.80, would open $72.64, the Feb 6 low. Initial resistance to watch is at $77.91, the 50-day EMA. A clear break of this EMA would be a bullish development and signal scope for a stronger recovery.
