Crude Oil Higher, Bulls Take The Advantage Overnight


Crude oil was higher overnight as it extends last week's rally. Stochastics and the RSI remain neutral to bullish signaling that sideways to higher prices are possible near term. If November extends last week's rally, the reaction high crossing at 73.58 is the next upside target. Closes below Monday's low crossing at 68.05 would temper the near term friendly outlook in the market.

Tuesday's pivot point, our line in the sand is 69.75

First resistance is the overnight high crossing at 71.63.
Second resistance is the reaction high crossing at 73.58.

First support is the 10 day moving average crossing at 68.05.
Second support is the reaction low crossing at 65.05.
