A bearish threat in Brent futures remains present despite yesterday’s gains and the recovery from $71.28, the May 4 low, appears to be a correction. Resistance at the 50-day EMA which intersects at $78.56, is intact. A clear break of the average is required to strengthen a bullish threat and signal scope for a stronger recovery. On the downside, a breach of $73.49, the May 15 low, would set the scene for an extension towards $71.28.
