Crude oil traded lower in Thursday evenings overnight session consolidating some of Wednesday's rally putting oil into overbought territory.Oil prices are diverging but are neutral to bullish signaling that sideways to higher prices are possible near term. If October extends the rebound off August's low, the May-July downtrend line crossing near 92.45 is the next upside target.

If the oil bulls expect to maintain any of this momentum they will need to defend 83.20, And closes below Tuesday's low crossing at 83.20 would confirm that the rally off August's low has ended.
