WTI futures maintain a bearish tone despite the bounce off last week's low. The Nov 3-4 sell-off resulted in a breach of support at $80.58, Oct 28 low and note that price also cleared the 20-day EMA. This suggests scope for a deeper corrective pullback and has opened the 50-day EMA at $77.33. This EMA is seen as a key S/T support and a clear break would suggest scope for a deeper pullback. Key resistance and the bull trigger is $85.41, Oct 25 high.
