Crude Oil Bulls Appear to Regain The Momentum
Crude oil was lower overnight as it consolidates some of Monday's rally. Stochastics and the RSI are turning bullish signaling that sideways to higher prices are possible near term. Closes above the 20 day moving average crossing at 78.95 would signal that a short term low has been posted. If December renews last week's decline, the 50% retracement level of this fall's rally crossing at 73.76 is the next downside target.

I believe we are likely to see a small drop in the next few days. Market seems unable to break the $80, and OPEC doesn't want it either.
A much lower than expected inventory number on Wednesday could push it higher, but such a surprise does not seem likely.
Dollar strength over the next few days will push prices back to $75 at the end of the week.
Just my two cents...
Very true Bjorn. But I am looking for the dollar to maintain it's trend lower, so this just becomes a buying opportunity for swing traders. Looks like the bulls have regained momentum.
