WTI Crude Oil chart
The daily bar chart pattern of WTI Crude Oil touched an intra-day high of 55.75 on Feb 4 - its highest level in nearly 3 months - but formed a 'reversal day' bar (higher high, lower close) that brought bears to the fore.
Oil's price corrected below its converging 20 day and 50 day EMAs and closed below the 'Support/Resistance zone' (between 53 and 55) that is proving to be a tough hurdle for bulls.

Some more correction or consolidation is likely.
On longer term weekly chart (not shown), oil's price faced strong resistance from its falling 20 week EMA and dropped to close well below its three weekly EMAs in long-term bear territory. Weekly technical indicators are looking neutral to bearish.
