USOILSPOT | New perspective for the week | Follow-up detail

Updated
By the end of the previous week, the Oil prices appear to have stabilized in a trading range between 74.00 and 67.00 per barrel. Sluggish data coming in from the Chinese economic docket (the world's number one importer of crude oil) is not helping matters at all; with a 1.4% decline in imports and an 8.5% drop in export growth. The economy seems to be struggling and there are insinuations that demand for oil might also slip in the world’s largest importer of the commodity thereby prompting traders to slow down. In this video, we used the current technical setup identified on the 4H timeframe to identify potential trading opportunities ahead of the new week.
