WTI futures traded lower Friday. The recent move lower from $116.64, the Mar 24 high, highlights a short-term bearish threat. The contract has also recently breached the 20-day EMA. This signals scope for a move towards the 50-day EMA at $97.38. This average represents an important pivot level and a break would suggest scope for a deeper pullback. On the upside, clearance of $116.64 would reinstate recent bullish conditions.
