It might be a short-term ploy to try testing it from the short side, given the StochRSI plunge, to see if oil needs to test lower such as the 200-dma again or the bottom parallel of my hypothetical price channel. Since the 50-dma and 200-dma are both uptrending, it doesn't look very concerning now. I'd only look for deeper (lower) targets if oil broke under the 200-dma (which would also break that trendline). If that happened, it would raise the odds that oil could violate the $69 support area. My monthly chart of $WTIC is also below. It continues to show that if oil violates that support area, then there's some serious downside potential.
But once again, since the monthly StochRSI is also still positive, and given the other factors I mentioned above, it looks more logical to assume that oil is just taking another overbought breather and looking for the retesting of moving average/Bollinger Band levels in order to get support for its next effort to try and reach $91.
