Crude Oil WTI Technical Analysis: Confusion prevails - $69.00 a barrel seems hard to get
- Crude oil bulls decided to save the uptrend for the time being by preventing the market from falling below $67.72 a barrel. Crude oil bulls managed to retest 69.00 again but failed to close above it despite an upbeat API data.
- As the price has not been able to surpass 69.00 for the last four days and at the same time price has been contained by the 67.92 support, the market is forming a trading range and the bullishness has somewhat been eroded.
- The line in the sand for both sides remain 67.72 and 69.00 with bulls keeping a small advantage in the short-term.
