WTI Crude breached our line in the sand resistance level at $52.60 to reach highs of $53.22 as we print above the 20,50 and 200 period SMA on the hourly chart in early trade today, after API weekly inventories registered a surprise drawdown of 5.272Mb vs. a previous buildup of 2.562 Mb, a 6th draw in inventories over the past 7 weeks. An hourly close above $53 resistance level will favor higher prints with $53.50 as the next closest target.
