(K4) Corrective Pullback

WTI TECHS
  • RES 4: $91.15 - 2.236 proj of the Jan 3 - 29 - Feb 5 price swing
  • RES 3: $90.00 - Psychological round number
  • RES 2: $89.08 - 2.00 proj of the Jan 3 - 29 - Feb 5 price swing

  • SUP 3: $71.52 Low Feb 5
  • SUP 4: $70.02 - Low Jan 3

A bull theme in WTI futures remains intact and the latest move lower is considered corrective - for now. Recent gains reinforced current bullish conditions and confirmed a resumption of the uptrend. The contract has breached $84.87, the Sep 15 ‘23 high, paving the way for a climb towards the $90.00 handle further out. The next objective is $89.08, a Fibonacci projection. Initial firm support to watch lies at $84.01, the 20-day EMA.
