WTI looks for a breakout of $84.00
Wednesday’s decent gains in prices of the WTI were against the backdrop of increasing open interest, which is indicative that further gains remain on the cards. Against that, the rally in crude oil is unlikely to subside for the time being and immediately targets the $84.00 mark and above.
