Crude oil closed higher due to short covering on Monday as it rebounded off the 87% retracement level of the September-January rally crossing at 69.58. The mid range close sets the stage for a steady to higher opening on Tuesday. Stochastics and the RSI have turned bearish again signaling that sideways to lower prices are possible near term.
If March extends the decline off January's high, September's low crossing at 67.46 is the next downside target. Closes above the 20 day moving average crossing at 76.25 are needed to confirm that a short term low has been posted.

Second resistance is the 20 day moving average crossing at 76.25
