WTI futures traded higher Thursday and price cleared resistance at $92.65, the Aug 9 high. The break cancels a recent bearish doji pattern and suggests scope for a stronger short-term recovery. The 20-day EMA, at $94.40, has also been breached and this has exposed the 50-day EMA at $97.97. On the downside, the bear trigger is at $87.01, the Aug 5 low. A breach would resume bearish activity.
