Crude Oil Signals are Oversold, Lower Prices Still Possible Near Term

Crude oil was higher due to short covering overnight as it consolidates some of last week's decline. Stochastics and the RSI are oversold but remain bearish signaling that sideways to lower prices are possible near term.

If August extends last week's decline, the reaction low crossing at 70.93 is the next downside target. Closes above the 20 day moving average crossing at 76.22 would confirm that a short term low has been posted.

First resistance is the 10 day moving average crossing at 75.13
Second resistance is the 20 day moving average crossing at 76.22

Crude oil's pivot point for Tuesday morning is 71.93

First support is the overnight low crossing at 71.09
Second support is the reaction low crossing at 70.93
