WTI crude: $65 floor holds again as bulls test 50-day MA

124
After nine failures to break and close beneath $65 per barrel over the past month, you have to wonder how much longer bears will persist in attempting to take out the level. Following a nice pop higher on Thursday, completing a morning star pattern and closing above the 50-day moving average, it may be time for WTI bulls to have their day in the sun.

For those eyeing long setups, positions could be initiated above the 50-day moving average with a stop beneath for protection against reversal.

As for potential targets, the contract had little luck breaking cleanly above the 200-day moving average earlier this month, making it screen as a suitable level. It’s found just below $68 per barrel today.

Good luck!
