Brent futures traded lower Wednesday. This reinforces short-term bearish conditions and this week’s move lower has resulted in a breach of support at $73.25, the May 15 low. The clear break of this level signals scope for weakness towards $71.20 the May 4 low and $70.06, the Mar 20 low and key support. Key resistance is at $77.58, the 50-day EMA. The latest recovery is considered corrective - for now.
