Time to sell OIL

Short
NYMEX:CL1!   Light Crude Oil Futures
The price is about to reach a key area of resistance to determine the trend in the very short term: between 58.80 and 59.70 a barrier has formed which is a watershed between a further climb of another 6 dollars towards the area between the $ 62/64 per barrel, or a retracement to the support at $ 52.20. The fundamental scenario that is taking shape is quite clear: according to analysts, the US is producing more oil than market demand, which remains constant (if not actually falling in certain periods). This situation is pushing investors to remain cautious with long positions on this commodity: despite the rise of the latter sessions, it is likely that the second hypothesis, (of a retracement ), is the most probable in the short term.
On the other hand, the brent is supported by a stable production cut by the OPEC countries and by production interruptions in Iran and Venezuela, maintaining a sort of balance between demand and supply . We recommend a short market entry on WTI, despite the price is close to an important pivot, anticipating the market.
