  • RES 4: $79.69 - High Jul 18

  • SUP 3: $63.89 - 1.618 proj of the Apr 12 - Jun 4 - Jul 5 price swing
  • SUP 4: $60.00 - Psychological round number

WTI futures traded higher Thursday, extending the rally that started on Oct 1. Short-term gains appear to be corrective, however, the break of the 50-day EMA suggests potential for an extension near-term. This has exposed $76.40, the Aug 26 high. On the downside, initial support to watch is $70.56, the 20-day EMA. A clear break of this level would highlight a potential reversal and a resumption of the downtrend.
