WTI futures traded lower Tuesday but did find support at the day low. The move lower confirms an extension of the reversal from $116.64, the Mar 24 high. The contract has also breached the 20-day EMA. The clear break strengthens a bearish case and signals scope for a move towards the 50-day EMA at $97.18. This EMA represents an important pivot level. On the upside, clearance of $116.64 would reinstate recent bullish conditions.
