SINGAPORE: Brent oil may retest a support at $91.57, a break below which could cause a fall to $89.94.
The bounce triggered by this support has ended around a resistance at $94.20, after oil repeatedly failed to overcome this barrier. The drop from the Wednesday high of $96.07 could have resumed.
A break below $91.57 will not only open the way towards $89.94, but also confirm a price range defined by the lower channel.
Once falling into the lower channel, oil may extend its loss to $86.49.

A break above $93.39 may lead to a gain into $94.20-$95.21 range.
On the daily chart, the support at $92.69 looks unable to hold under persistent attacks by bears.
Once overcoming this obstacle, oil is likely to retrace into $85.17-$89.63 range.
The uptrend from the Dec. 2, 2021 low of $65.72 remains intact. It may resume upon the completion of the current correction.
