WTI futures traded higher last week and the contract remains in bull-mode condition. The move lower from recent highs appears to be a correction. Key support is at $80.20, the Oct 6 low. The medium-term trend condition is bullish and an extension higher would expose the bull trigger at $92.48, the Sep 28 high. Clearance of this hurdle would confirm a resumption of the uptrend. For bears, a move through $80.20, would highlight a short-term top.
