Oil made an attempt to settle below $44.00 but failed to gain sufficient downside momentum and returned back to the $45 level. The current technical picture looks rather bullish for oil, but it needs to get above the resistance at $45.80 to confirm that it is ready to gain more upside momentum. In this case, it will head towards the next resistance level at the recent highs at $46.25.
On the support side, oil has mostly ignored support levels at $44.75 and $44.45 but the support at $43.75 should be strong enough in case oil gains some downside momentum. A move below $43.75 will push oil towards the next support at $43.00.
