Tuesday's Auction
As noted in Tue's analysis, focus on
response at Key Structural Support, 74.30s-74s, was key in Wed's auction as
selling interest drove price to Major Structural Support, 73.30s, where buying
interest entered, developing Balance in spite of "bearish" EIA and
OPEC production cut conjecture. Focus on response to Balance, 73.30s-74.30s,
into Thu's holiday shortened Globex session. Price volatility may be
exacerbated due to holiday thin liquidity. OPEC announce Thu.
