Crude Oil Higher on Better then Expected Unemployment Numbers, Short Covering
Crude oil was higher due to short covering overnight as it consolidates some of Thursday's decline. Stochastics and the RSI are diverging but are turning neutral to bearish signaling that sideways to lower prices are possible near term.
If March extends this week's decline, the 75% retracement level of the September-January rally crossing at 71.70 is the next downside target. Closes above the 20 day moving average crossing at 76.94 are needed to confirm that a short term low has been posted.
