The WTI futures outlook improved for bulls last week and the short-term condition remains positive. The contract has defined a key short-term support at $81.30, the Oct 18 low. Note that resistance at $88.66, the Oct 12 high, has been breached. The break of this hurdle signals scope for gains towards $92.34, the Oct 10 high and a key resistance. On the downside, a move through support at $81.30 is required to undermine the current bull theme.
