WTI futures are trading higher today as the pair extends the rally that started on Oct 1. The rally undermines a recent bearish theme and suggests potential for a continuation higher near-term. Sights are on $77.40, the 76.4% retracement of the Jul 5 - Sep 10 bear leg. A break of this level would strengthen a bullish condition. On the downside, initial firm support to watch is $70.56, the 20-day EMA.
