Presently, the trend formation of Lower Low and Lower High is still intact. This shows the bear very much in control. 

Despite the drop in price, the number of active oil and gas rigs in US still increased by 11 this week - making it 21 weeks of consecutive gains - the longest growth streak since at least 1987, which is the earliest date that Baker Hughes data is available.
