Crude oil (WTI) is trading around $66.02 per barrel after finding good support around the 4/8 Murray and around the 200 EMA, which has a bullish bias.

In the coming hours, crude oil is expected to continue rising and could reach the 7/8 Murray around $67.18 and finally, the 8/8 Murray around the top of the uptrend channel located at $68.75.
