Crude Oil WTI Technical Analysis: Oil consolidating Thursday’s gains below the 69.00 figure

  • Crude oil was unable to continue the bull rally initiated on Thursday as the market is having a 61.8% Fibonacci retracement from the last bull leg (August 2).
  • Next week bulls will try to push the market above $69.00 a barrel while bears will try to drive the market below the 67.72 support.
  • The market might need to consolidate some more below 69.00, however, the current bullish momentum favors a breakout above 69.00 as long as  the market holds 67.72.
