Brent Crude seems to have carved an intermediary top around $43.40 handle. It has since dropped towards $39.84, sub dividing into 5 waves at a lower degree. Furthermore, the rally to $42.00 yesterday was corrective. If the above short term structure holds as 5-3, Brent is preparing for another 5 waves lower towards $32.80/33.00 respectively. High probability remains for a deeper correction towards $26 and further. We are changing our stance from long term bullish to bearish for the next few weeks. Also note that fibonacci 0.618 retracement is seen towards sub $26.00 levels. It would be considered safe to take profits on the long positions initiated earlier and remain flat or aggressively short.
Strategy:
Short against $45.00 towards $33.00 and $26.00
