Crude Oil WTI Technical Analysis: Bull correction might be over

  • Crude oil rose above 71.19 May 23 low then dropped about $1 to now trade below $71.00 a barrel.  
  • The bull breakout attempt above 71.00 was met with quite strong selling pressure.  
  • If bulls are not quick in resuming the up move, the bears might take over again and try to drive the market below the 70.00 figure next week.
