WTI could slip back to $50.00
Friday’s decline in prices of the WTI was on the back of rising open interest, allowing for the continuation of the sell-off to, initially, the key support at the $50.00 per barrel. The choppy activity in volume could slow the pace of the descent somewhat, although the underlying bearish mood remains well in play for the time being.
