Crude Oil WTI Technical Analysis: 67.70 target mission accomplished – $70.00 a barrel is next

  • Crude oil is resuming its bulls trend as black gold gained about $4 in the last 5 days.  
  • Crude oil reached target 2 in the 67.16-67.72 area and nothing indicated that the bull momentum should abate. The 100 and 200-period simple moving averages are sloping upward and the market broke strongly above the bear trendline (blue).
  • The next target is $70.00 a barrel. A bear breakout below 67.16 would invalidate the bullish bias.
