Brent futures remain above both the 20-day and 50-day EMAs. The clear break of these EMAs last week strengthened the short-term bullish condition and highlights a stronger reversal. This has opened $101.39, the Aug 30 high and the next key resistance. A break would further reinforce a bullish theme. Initial firm support to watch lies at $92.67, the 50-day EMA. Short-term pullbacks are considered corrective.
