*COMMENTARY: Losses to start the new week see the contract flirting with the

100-DMA ($64.73). Bears now look for a close below $63.87 to shift initial focus

to $61.73 and overall focus to $56.93-59.44 where the 200-DMA and Feb lows are

noted. Layers of resistance are weighing despite daily studies at O/S levels.

Bulls now need a close above $67.34 to confirm a break of the 55-DMA ($67.26)

and gain breathing room and above $68.67 to shift focus higher.
