WTI futures continue to recover from Monday’s low of $95.28. A triangle pattern has appeared on the daily chart. This is a bearish pattern and a break of $95.28 would confirm a resumption of weakness and expose $92.60, Apr 11 low, and $90.37, the Mar 15 low and a key bear trigger. Triangle resistance intersects at $106.78 ahead of a key resistance at $109.20, Apr 18 high. Clearance of these hurdles would be seen as a bullish development.
