Oil four-hour chart

 
WTI stays under heavy selling pressure below the main SMAs as sellers are looking to continue the selloff below the 20 level which might introduce scope to the 16 and 12 levels on the way down. Conversely, bulls would need to gather strength and regain at least the 28 resistance, however, they need to overcome the 22 and 24 resistance in the first place.
