Brent futures are unchanged and trade closer to their recent highs. The medium-term trend condition remains bearish and recent gains appear corrective. Attention is on $66.13, the 50-day EMA. It has been pierced. A clear break of the average would highlight a stronger bull cycle and expose $68.28, a Fibonacci retracement. A reversal lower would open $58.00, the Apr 9 low.
