WTI TECHS: (V19) Failure at trendline weighs
*RES 4: $58.82 - High Jul 31
*RES 3: $57.40 - High Aug 13 and key resistance
*RES 2: $56.24.57.13 - 50-day EMA / High Aug 21
*RES 1: $55.77 - Trendline resistance drawn off the Jul 15 high
*PRICE: $53.67 @ 07:29 BST Aug 26
*SUP 1: $52.96 - Intraday low
*SUP 2: $51.84 - Low Aug 8
*SUP 3: $50.50 - Aug 7 low and key bear trigger
*SUP 4: $50.00 - Round number support
WTI breached trendline resistance on Aug 21 at $56.29, drawn off the Jul 15
high. However bulls failed to hold onto that days high resulting in a subsequent
sell-off for the remainder of the week. Furthermore, price action failed to
tackle key resistance at $57.40, the Aug 13 high. Near-term weakness is seen
likely and this would attract the major support at $50.50, the low of Aug 7. On
the upside, a break of $57.40 is needed to reinstate a bullish theme.
