WTI futures have traded higher this week. The recovery since Sep 9, appears - for now - to be a correction. Recent weakness reinforced a bearish condition and note that moving average studies are in a bear-mode set-up, highlighting a dominant downtrend. A resumption of the downtrend would open $63.89 next, a Fibonacci projection point. The 20-day EMA, at $70.20, has been pierced. The next key resistance is $72.52, the 50-day EMA.
