Crude Oil Rallies Into Tuesday's Open


Crude oil was higher overnight as it consolidates some of last Friday's decline. Stochastics and the RSI are bullish signaling that a short term low might be in or is near. Closes above the 20 day moving average crossing at 78.60 are needed to confirm that a short term low has been posted.

If January renews the decline off October's high, the 75% retracement level of this fall's rally crossing at 70.23 is the next downside target.
