Brent futures have traded above $84.60, Oct 11 high. The continuation higher confirms a resumption of the uptrend and maintains the bullish price sequence of higher highs and higher lows. Note too that the contract has recently cleared the $80.00 handle, an important psychological hurdle. The focus is on $85.00 next, a Fibonacci projection. Initial firm short-term support is seen at $82.20, Oct 13 low.
