Oil chart analysis
The price of oil fell this week from the level of $88.28. On Wednesday we saw a drop to the $82.06 level, after which the price started to recover until reaching the resistance at the $85.50 level. Then, we see a fresh pullback to $82.50, where we once again held and returned above the $84.00 level with fresh momentum.
For now, we remain above that level and try to find support to continue towards the bullish side. The highest potential targets are the $85.00 and $86.00 levels.
The EMA50 would represent a hurdle for us in the area around the $85.50 level. We need a negative consolidation and a price retracement below the $83.00 level for a bearish option.
After that, we would again have the opportunity to approach the previous support zone. The possible lower targets are the $82.00 and $81.00 levels.
