Brent futures are firmer this morning again. The contract last week managed to remain above key support at the 50-day EMA that intersects at $97.71 today. Price has cleared resistance at 113.91, the Mar 11 high. The break of this level has strengthened bullish conditions and signals scope for a stronger short-term recovery towards 123.01 a Fibonacci retracement. On the downside, clearance of the 50-day EMA would reinstate a bearish threat.
