Despite recent gains, a bearish threat in Brent futures remains present. Scope is seen for a move towards $71.20, the May 4 low, ahead of $70.06, the Mar 20 low. Moving average studies remain in a bear mode position and this highlights a downtrend. On the upside, clearance of $78.73, the Jun 5 high, would alter the picture and signal a reversal. Initial firm resistance is at $77.24, the Jun 21 high.
