Crude Oil Slides on Overnight Profit Taking

Crude oil was lower due to profit taking overnight as it consolidates some of this month's rally. Stochastics and the RSI are overbought but are neutral to bullish signaling that sideways to higher prices are possible near term.

If July extends the rally off May's low, the 62% retracement level of May's decline crossing at 81.13 is the next upside target. Closes below the 20 day moving average crossing at 74.27 are needed to confirm that a short term top has been posted.

First resistance is Monday's high crossing at 78.92
Second resistance is the 62% retracement level of May's decline crossing at 81.13

Tuesday's pivot point for crude oil is 78.76
First support is the 10 day moving average crossing at 76.18
Second support is the 20 day moving average crossing at 74.27

First resistance is last Wednesday's high crossing at 5.196
Second resistance is the 62% retracement level of the November-May decline crossing at 5.429
