Crude Oil WTI Technical Analysis: A bull trap it is - More down

  • The crude oil bull leg is having a break as the market made three pushes up after the triangle compression pattern (red) and failed to break above the 69.00 figure. The market broke below the yellow bull trendline and is now testing the 68.30 support. Oil might found some short-lived support but now the short-term momentum is to the downside with the market trading below the 100 and 200-period simple moving averages. Bears target are located in the 67.00-67.30 zone and 66.30-66.53 area.  
  • A sustained breakout above 69.00-69.30 zone would invalidate the short-term bearish bias.
