 | Feb 19, 2018 12:17

Crude oil increases back, trading above 62 range and heading higher. Crude oil is contained between resistance at 64.77 (11/01/2017) and support at 55.82 (07/12/2017 low). The technical structure suggests short-term upside moves.

In the long-term, crude oil has recovered after its sharp decline last year. However, we consider that further weakness is very likely. For the time being, the pair lies in an upside trend since June 2017. Support lies at 42.20 (16/11/2016) while resistance is located at 77.83 (20/11/2014). Crude oil is trading largely above its 200 DMA.
