WTI futures remains vulnerable and the contract traded to a fresh low Monday before finding some support. Last week’s sell-off resulted in the break of key support at $71.10, the Dec 9 low. The breach confirms a resumption of the medium-term downtrend. Note too that price has also cleared the psychological $70.00 handle. Attention is on $62.43, the Dec 2 2021 low (cont). Initial resistance is at $69.83, Friday’s high.
