May crude oil closed up $4.15 at $52.54 a barrel today. Prices closed nearer the session high today on short covering and fresh speculative buying interest. A stronger U.S. stock market and optimism in the wake of the G-20 meeting in London boosted crude today. A sharply lower U.S. dollar also aided crude today. Bulls have regained upside near term technical momentum.
The June U.S. dollar index closed down 109 points at 84.87 today. Prices closed nearer the session low today. Bulls faded today. Bulls' next upside price objective is to close prices above solid technical resistance at this week's high of 86.61.
