Crude Oil Testing Line in the Sand
Crude Oil (June)
Last week’s close: Settled 78.11, down 0.84 on Friday and 5.74 on the week
WTI Crude Oil futures have trended with a lower high for five straight sessions and while trading below first key resistance at 79.49-79.63, it is gearing for the sixth straight session since the April 26th peak. Price action has now tested major three-star support at 78.01-78.43, aligning multiple technical indicators with the upper-end of the consolidation into mid-March. While we now hold a Neutral Bias, there is value seen here, but the market lacks positive momentum.
