Crude Oil WTI Technical Analysis: Oil consolidating climactic sell-off, bulls eyeing $70.00 a barrel

• Crude oil found resistance at 71.19, May 23 low earlier in the day then lost almost $2 to the downside to find intraday support at $69.44 a barrel, the June 25 high.  
• Crude oil bears didn’t manage to make a repeat of Wednesday’s sell-off and while the momentum is down if bulls manage to close above 70.00 the correction can accelerate towards 70.53 May 24 low in the near-term.
