Crude Oil Bulls Remain Confident

The Commodity Specialist view - Earlier this year the slip back in Crude Oil price was supported by the 38.2% retracement, with bears unable to make further headway. The subsequent recovery still looks sound, with the May high remaining under threat of being breached.

• BRENT CRUDE - WEEKLY CONTINUATION CHART: Recovery from the 38.2% pullback earlier pushed beyond the prior highs shown. These have so far provided support. The May high remains under threat, with a break higher to turn attention towards the 61.8% recovery level around 105.00.
• BRENT CRUDE - DAILY CHART JAN-11: A recent dip held above the 81.24 19-Oct low, helping to preserve current bull momentum. The chart looks well-placed to make a better break of the 76.4% level to challenge the 93.24 May high. Beyond here we can start calculating higher projection levels.
