Crude Oil and Natural Gas Market Commentary For Monday Morning

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

Closes above the 20 day moving average crossing at 76.27 are needed to confirm that a short term low has been posted. If August resumes the decline off June's high, the reaction low crossing at 70.93 is the next downside target.

First resistance is the 20 day moving average crossing at 76.27
