Crude Oil Closes Lower, Natural Gas Higher on Short Covering
Crude oil closed lower on Tuesday as it extended this month's decline. The low range close sets the stage for a steady to lower opening on Wednesday. Stochastics and the RSI are oversold but remain neutral to bearish signaling that sideways to lower prices are possible near term.
If August extends the decline off June's high, the 62% retracement level of this spring's rally crossing at 54.97 is the next downside target. Closes above the 20 day moving average crossing at 66.40 are needed to confirm that a short term low has been posted.
First resistance is the 10 day moving average crossing at 62.82
Second resistance is the 20 day moving average crossing at 66.40
First support is Monday's low crossing at 58.32
Second support is the 62% retracement level crossing at 54.97
