WTI four-hour chart
The market is attempting to break away from the range of the last weeks while trading above the 24.00 level and the 50 SMA on the four-hour chart. The bulls are also putting to the test the 100 SMA which is sloping down suggesting that the momentum is still bearish. However, a break above 28.00 could lead to further speculative interest towards $32.00 a barrel.
