But, the intermediate trend for Brent is down
Intermediate trend is down for Brend Crude with tentative support at 70

Brent 6-Month Daily Chart

There is a high probability Brent Crude will test 70 again. Is 70 the end of the long slide? Reference my chart published on November 28, 2014: Brent Crude Oil chart analysis – $60? $40?

Tentative breakout for WestJet at 33. Target price 35 to 36

WestJet (WJA) 6-Month Daily Chart

Until WestJet holds for a couple of days above 33, I class the breakout as tentative. If it holds, we have a new support reference point. The reversal of roles from resistance to support is a important concept in technical analysis.

Reference my last chart analysis for WestJet published on October 23, 2014.
