  • WTI crude oil remains firmer inside one-week-old symmetrical triangle, eyes first weekly gain in five.
  • Firmer RSI (14) line, not overbought, joins sustained trading beyond 200-EMA to defend energy bulls.
  • Oil sellers remain off the table beyond $70.70, with multiple hurdles to challenge bears thereafter.

In that case, the stated triangle’s top line surrounding $73.20 becomes a crucial hurdle to watch as a break of which could quickly propel the WTI crude oil price towards the May 10 swing high near $73.80.
