WTI futures are trading lower this week. This has resulted in a breach of support at $79.04, the Apr 3 low and the gap high on the daily chart. The continuation lower has also resulted in a break of both the 20- and 50-day EMAs. This signals scope for a move to $75.83, the Mar 31 high and a gap low on the daily chart. On the upside, key short-term resistance has been defined at $83.38, the Apr 12 high. A break would resume the recent uptrend.
