據(jù)油價網(wǎng)4月20日報道，在美國石油市場的另一個看漲指標中，6月結(jié)算的WTI原油期貨價格上漲0.14美元，收于102.19美元。

5月合約定于今天結(jié)束交易，也小幅上漲，收于102.75美元，漲幅0.19%。

盡管看漲情緒盛行，但原油市場再次出現(xiàn)震蕩。

美國石油協(xié)會(API)的每周庫存數(shù)據(jù)顯示，庫存減少802萬桶，遠高于預(yù)期的增加247.1萬桶。

美國石油協(xié)會(API)報告稱，汽油庫存增加290萬桶，高于美國能源部上周預(yù)期的100萬桶。API還報告稱，柴油庫存減少170萬桶，低于美國能源部上周預(yù)期的減少80萬桶。總的來說，API顯示本周石油和石油產(chǎn)品的產(chǎn)量為330萬桶，而能源部的預(yù)期產(chǎn)量為0.7萬桶。

原油價格在急劇下跌的情況下，WTI價格回到了從4月12日的最低價(101.07美元)上升的50%回收線以下，200小時移動平均線也達到了100.97美元。

油價也一度跌破100美元，但在99.88美元的水平上戛然而止。

WTI6月合約目前在100小時移動平均線的中間價104.66美元附近交易，而上升的200小時移動平均線低于100.97美元(接近50%的中間價101.07美元)。對多頭來說，好消息是價格下跌未能維持在50%和200小時移動平均線以下的勢頭。

U.S. Crude Futures Are Growing Increasingly Bullish

In yet another bullish indicator for U.S. oil markets, the price of WTI crude oil futures for June settlement have notched $0.14 higher to settle at $102.19.

The May contract, set to go off the market today, also gained slightly to settle at $102.75, good for a 0.19% increase.

once again, the crude markets recorded choppy trading despite bullish sentiment prevailing. 

Weekly inventory data by the American Petroleum Institute (API) showed a much higher-than-expected drawdown of -8.02 million barrels against expectations for a 2.471 million barrel increase. 

API reported gasoline inventories rose 2.9mb, relative to the DOE expectation for a draw of 1.0mb on the week. API also reported diesel inventories fell 1.7mb, relative to the DOE expectation for a draw of 0.8mb on the week. In total, API showed a draw of 3.3mb in oil and oil products on the week, relative to the DOE expectation for a build of 0.7mb.

Despite the sharp drawdown, the price of crude oil sold off with WTI price back below its 50% retracement of the move up from the April 12 low (at $101.07), and the 200-hour moving average currently at $100.97.

The price also cracked below the $100 level but abruptly stopped at the $99.88 level before rebounding into the settlement.

The WTI June contract currently trades near the middle of the 100-hour moving average at $104.66, while the rising 200-hour moving average is below at $100.97 (which is near the 50% midpoint at $101.07). The good news for the bulls is that the price decline has failed to sustain momentum below the 50% and 200-hour moving average.
