WTI oil continues to experience selling pressure due to the stalemate within OPEC deal . However, anonymous sources hinted that some form of agreement has been struck between Saudi Arabia and UAE. If true, this would be bullish developement for price of oil. Before the selloff started we stated that selling would cease around 70 USD per barrel. Then price found its support at 70.79 USD and reversed back to the upside. Currently price fluctuates between 70 USD and 77 USD. MACD, RSI and Stochastics are all bearish. However, RSI shows first signs of flattening. Despite bearish technicals we remain bullish. We expect OPEC to reach agreement and view this as catalyst for move up. Our medium term price target remains 77.50 USD and our long term price target remains 80 USD per barrel.
