Crude oil has made a strong run to the upside through a lot of resistance levels and target zones and the commodity still has room to the upside. The first level that was broken that we were targetting was at $59.90 and just above that the top of the channel at $61.00. The $61.00 target was barely hit on the day before price reversed slightly lower.
The support structure we're watching for price to hold and continue higher is $60.35 but the price could move slightly lower into the $60.00 area before finding some support. Ultimately we have one last chance level at the impulse start which is at $59.50 but we don't anticipate price moving down to that area before seeing a rally through the $61.00 resistance area.
A breakthrough $61.00 could drive the price up to $61.50-61.70 and the retrace, we want to see it stall at $61.00 to confirm the upside and continue to rally. This is what we're looking for.
