COT Market Summary for Wednesday Sept.11th - Crude Oil, Natural Gas, SP 500, Gold and Coffee

October crude oil closed higher due to short covering on Wednesday as it consolidates some of this week's decline. The high range close sets the stage for a steady to higher opening when Thursday's night session begins. Stochastics and the RSI are turning neutral to bearish hinting that sideways to lower prices are possible near term. Multiple closes below the 20 day moving average crossing at 107.45 are needed to confirm that a short term top has been posted. If October renews this summer's rally, weekly resistance crossing at 114.83 is the next upside target. First resistance is August's high crossing at 112.24. Second resistance is weekly resistance crossing at 114.83. First support is the 20 day moving average crossing at 107.45. Second support is the reaction low crossing at 103.50.
