Crude oil paused to digest losses after prices slid to the lowest level in over six months earlier in the week. A daily close below the 76.4% Fibonacci expansion at 48.54 exposes the 100% level at 45.11. Alternatively, a move back above the 61.8% Fib at 50.66opens the door for a test of the 50% expansion at 52.37.
KEY UPCOMING EVENT RISK:
