WTI futures failed to hold on to yesterday’s gains. The outlook remains bearish and a resumption of weakness would open $79.63 a Fibonacci retracement and potentially $75.70 further out, the Sep 26 low. On the upside, a stronger reversal higher would instead expose the key short-term resistance at $92.34, the Oct 10 high. Initial firm resistance to watch is at $88.66, Oct 12 high.
