WTI Crude chart
The 6 months daily bar chart pattern of WTI Crude oil shows an expected break below a 'rising wedge' pattern, followed by a pullback above both 20 day and 50 day EMAs. Since oil's price is trading below its falling 200 day EMA in a bear market, such a pullback can be used as an opportunity to sell.
The initial pullback started with a volume spurt, but volumes trailed off as the pullback rally continued past the two EMAs. That is a sign of a rally losing momentum.
Daily technical indicators are beginning to turn bullish. MACD has crossed above its signal line, but both are still negative. RSI has moved above its 50% level. Slow stochastic has climbed up from its oversold zone to the 50% level. Without volume support, the rally is unlikely to sustain.
On longer-term weekly chart (not shown), WTI Crude oil price is struggling to remain in a bull market as it closed below its 200 week EMA two weeks in a row.
Brent Crude chart
The following comments were made in the previous post analysing the 6 months daily bar chart pattern of Brent Crude oil: "All three EMAs have merged together. Usually a sharp price move follows, which is likely to be downwards."

Daily technical indicators are bearish. MACD is touching its signal line in negative territory. RSI has moved up to its 50% level. Slow stochastic has emerged from its oversold zone.
On longer-term weekly chart (not shown), Brent Crude oil price is trading below its 20 week and 50 week EMAs but well above its rising 200 week EMA. The long-term bull market is intact, despite being in a bear market in the short-term.
