Crude Oil and Natural Gas Commentary For Friday Morning

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

If September extends this month's rally, the reaction high crossing at 79.97 is the next upside target. Closes below last Tuesday's low crossing at 74.70 would temper the near term friendly outlook.

First resistance is the overnight high crossing at 79.60
Second resistance is the reaction high crossing at 79.97

Crude oil pivot point for Friday is 78.29

First support is the 20 day moving average crossing at 76.50
