This has been the biggest bear market rally in history, breaching the 0.618 retracement levels of most markets, leading many to call for a v-shaped recovery.

Oil is currently dropping on a lengthy RSI divergence - i'm expecting a bounce at the OTE retracement (half way between 0.618 and 0.786 fibs) or with less probability at the 0.786 fib. Expecting resistance in the area between $31.60 (0.382 retracement of the $34.76 high) and $31.75 (previous support), which should cause a retest of the $27.50 low.
