Crude Oil Reaction Crossing at 82.28 is the Next Upside Target


Crude oil was slightly higher overnight as it extends the rally off December's low. Stochastics and the RSI are overbought but remain neutral to bullish signaling that sideways to higher prices are possible near term.

If February extends this rally, the reaction high crossing at 82.28 is the next upside target. Closes below the 20 day moving average crossing at 75.84 are needed to confirm that a short term top has been posted.
