  • Crude oil is consolidating the strong bear sell-off seen on Monday. The market found support near 67.16, June 14 high and bulls tried to push oil above 68.30, supply/demand level.
  • As bulls are about to  close the day near its high the consolidation phase seems not to be over just yet and another attempt above 68.30 can send oil to a test of the 69.00 figure or 69.44 near July 12 low.
  • On the flip side, failure to contain prices above 67.16 can open the gates to 66.53 and 65.71 support levels.
