SINGAPORE: Brent oil may rise towards a $87-$87.77 range, as it has broken a resistance at $85.77 per barrel.

The break confirms an uptrend from $73.26. Based on the depth of the correction triggered by this resistance, oil may rise to $88.50.

However, the resistance at $87 could not be ignored. It works with another one at $86.74, the Oct. 3, 2018 high, to form a strong barrier.

Oil may experience another correction similar to the one from the Oct. 18 high of $86.04 when it climbs up to the barrier. A break below $85.77, now a support, may cause a fall towards the $83.76-$85 range.

On the daily chart, oil has broken a key resistance at $85.17.

The break opens the way towards $89.63.

However, the resistance at $86.74 stands in the way. There might be an intense fight between bulls and bears around this level.

The current speculation is this resistance may trigger a pullback towards $85.17.
