The pullback in WTI futures early last week undermines the recent bullish theme and suggests scope for a continuation lower near-term, despite recent gains. A bearish shooting star candle (Nov 7) was followed by a bearish engulfing candle the following day. These patterns highlight a short-term reversal.
