Chart

WTI Crude April future

Last session low & high: 6725 - 6837.

(To compare the spread with the contract that you trade).

WTI Crude shorts at my sell opportunity at 6740/60  did not work this time as we unfortunately spiked above 6810 before reversing from 6837.

If we continue higher look for strong resistance at 6880/6900 & shorts need stops above 6940. Targets: 6835 & 6775

Support at 6530/20 held again last week. A break below 6500 is a sell signal targeting 6445/35 & 6395/75.
