Crude Oil WTI Technical Analysis: Bull target at 66.50 mission accomplished – What is next?

  • Crude oil bull trend has been on pause since July 3.  
  • Bulls broke to the upside from the triangle compression pattern and reached target area 1 in the  66.30-66.53 zone. It is now reasonable to expect some consolidation. If the bearish trendline (blue) is cleared, bulls next objective is to drive the market to  target 2 in the 67.16-67.72 zone.
  • A sustained bear breakout below 65.71 would negate the bullish bias.
