Oil posted its biggest percentage decline in nearly 2 months after reports indicated Russia is unlikely to lower production at the upcoming OPEC meeting. WTI dropped towards its 7-week support trend line, but after that rebounded from $ 55.00 and 200-day SMA on H4 chart.
Earlier on Wednesday, the EIA reported that overall Crude stocks rose 1.4 Mb, about in line with consensus for a 1.5 Mb. However, the market latched on to the fact inventories at Cushing fell 2.3 Mb barrels, the most significant drop in 3 months.
When you look out over the last couple of months, we essentially have been forming an uptrend and bullish channel, and as a result we could very easily go higher. The nearest resistance is near $57.17 at 50% Fibo level on the recent fall from 63.38 to 51.06 (4-hours). A clear break there will extend the rise for testing key resistance $58. It corespondent to the upper border of the current range. In that area the market could see a bit of market memory where sellers could come back in. Conversely, if the price fails to continue under $56.50, it could resume its decline.
Ultimately, we like the idea of buying short-term pullbacks. But we're looking for any type of major breakout in one direction or the other, since the market have found a bit of an equilibrium in the last month.
