WTI futures have traded lower last week and this resulted in a breach of the 50-day EMA. The move lower marks an extension of the current bearish cycle and the print below the 50-day EMA suggests scope for a continuation lower near-term. The focus is on the next key support at $92.20, the Mar 15 low and an important bear trigger. Initial firm resistance has been defined at $105.59, Apr 5 high where a break would ease current bearish pressure.
