WTI futures are holding on to their recent gains. The recovery since Sep 9, appears - for now - to be a correction. The 20-day EMA has been pierced and the next resistance to watch is $72.35, the 50-day EMA. It has been pierced, a clear break of it would undermine a bear theme. Note that MA studies are in a bear-mode set-up, highlighting a dominant downtrend. A reversal lower would refocus attention on $64.61, the Sep 10 low and bear trigger.
