Crude Oil WTI Technical Analysis: Black Gold capped at 73.00 a barrel post-EIA

• Crude oil bulls want to extend the main bull trend however they need to surpass the 73.00 resistance.
• Crude oil is meeting some resistance as it is trading at levels not seen since July of this year. 
• Failure to break above 72.00-73.00 resistance zone can lead towards a rotation down towards $70.00 a barrel near the bull trendline (blue).
• The EIA data came in at 1.852M versus 1.279M expected, which is potentially bullish short-term. However, the market seemed to have priced in the information as the reaction was virtually unnoticed.
