Brent crude futures traded higher Monday but stalled at the session high and is trading lower. The outlook remains bullish though. Last week's recovery resulted in fresh trend highs following the clearance of $74.96 Jun 16 high. The move confirms a resumption of the uptrend and maintains the bullish price sequence of higher highs and higher lows. A break below $72.01 is needed to signal a top. Initial support to watch is at $73.37, the 20-day EMA.
