Brent futures remain vulnerable. The contract traded lower last week, extending the pullback from $106.50, Jul 29 high. The move lower was the result of a failure to hold on to gains above the 50-day EMA - a key pivot resistance. The EMA intersects at $102.20. Price has cleared $96.70 support, Jul 25 low. This exposes $91.22, Jul 14 low. Key resistance has been defined at $106.50. A break is required to reinstate a bullish focus.
