WTI On the Hourly for WTI, it is in Neutral Market Bias from the Bullish & Bearish Trendlines (in red and green dotted lines) fanning out.
Price action rallied earlier for a Hanging Man to show up at the top of the rally, signaling a reversal to the downside, which happened. Some consolidation created a S&R Zone and Inside Day for a market pause. Breakout from the Inside Day is either from the pattern's high at 72.421 or low at 71.871.
The last candle moving within the S&R Zone is a small Hammer, set to rally and likely get blocked by the Bearish Trendline (in red dotted line acting like a strong rope that held back 6 candles already) and then head down towards the low of the Inside Day at 71.871 for a breakout from the pattern.
A continued bear run can drop down from the S&R Zone to either retest the Zone or just drop more towards the Swing Lows of 71.376 and 71.174.
