What’s Putting Crude Oil Prices Under Pressure?At a Glance With vehicle efficiency up and China's economy slowing, WTI crude oil prices experienced late summer lows, though they have since started to rebound Driving would need to increase by nearly 2% each year to keep fuel demand stable Crude oil prices fell sharply in late August and early September. Does this mean that oil is a bargain? The answer is complex. For starters, OPEC+ has taken 3.6 million barrels per day off of the market over the past two years. Secondly, geopolitical tensions remain high. What explains oil’s weakness despite these factors that ordinarily might have supported prices? Vehicle Efficiency The average car in model year 2024 will likely be able to drive as much as 24% further on the same amount of fuel as a similar car from model year 2012. Since a car typically lasts about 12 years, this means that each year drivers around the world need to drive about 2% further than the year before just to keep demand stable. In the U.S., drivers aren’t driving any further than they were back in 2019. Demand From China Last year, 35% of new cars sold in China were EVs, and this year that could grow to over 50%. China’s economy is also growing more slowly than in the past. Since 2005, oil prices have often peaked about one year after peaks in China’s pace of growth. China’s growth rate last crested in 2021, and oil prices peaked a year later in 2022. Moreover, China’s economy decelerated sharply over the summer which might deprive oil of a critical source of demand growth going into late 2024 and into next year. Finally, watch for OPEC+ decisions later this year, which could potentially boost output.

1 Week Later and Oil is down 3.66%1 Week after the beggining of conflict between Israel and Iran in the middle east, Crude Oil is down 3.66%. Price began trending down all week and then on Thursday there was news of a bombing by Israel which caused a spike in Oil(3.5). This whole move was corrected and we are back to being down on the week. This opposes what I believed may play out this week as my thoughts were 1. Oil is a precious commodity and needed in War 2. The trend thus far this year is Bullish (we are up 13.82%) The market is instead going down and retraced this week. We are currently sitting on the Daily support level 81.23. Price action looks bearish on the Daily as we have a large top wick on the current candle.. moving into the next few weeks we will have a bearish weekly candle behind us that may aid in a descent towards the next Daily level 80.65 and beyond to the next weekly level 77.82. Also, this is in line with current risk-off market sentiment as Oil (Risk-on) is a commodity after all Daily timeframe : The Daily timeframe retested Daily resistance (85.65) and we rejected.

WTI OIL Trade according to this Channel Up.WTI Oil (USOIL) is trading within a short-term Channel Up on the 4H time-frame, with the wider pattern still a Channel Up since the December 13 2023 market bottom. As long as the price keeps closing the 4H candles within the Channel Up, we remain bullish, targeting 81.85 (+6.64%, which is the rise of the previous Bullish Leg of the dashed Rising Megaphone). If a 4H candle is closed below it, we will take the loss and open a sell aimed at the 4H MA200 (orange trend-line) at 77.70. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Please LIKE 👍, FOLLOW ✅, SHARE 🙌 and COMMENT ✍ if you enjoy this idea!

WTI OIL Technical pull-back. Buy on these levels.WTI Oil (USOIL) gave us the most optimal buy entry last time we made a call on it (January 22, see chart below) and almost touched the 79.40 Target before pulling back: The pattern that has emerged is a Channel Up that started since the December 13 2023 bottom. The recent top at 79.30 is a technical Higher High for the Channel Up and the rejection has started the new Bearish Leg to a Lower Low (bottom of Channel Up). However the price may not pull-back that far this time as the 4H RSI is testing its Higher Lows trend-line that has been holding since the December 06 2023 RSI Low and has already given 3 contact points for buy entries. As a result this is where we are placing our 1st buy, with which we are targeting 83.00, being the 0.618 Fibonacci retracement level from the Top and right under Resistance 2 (83.60). That will establish a new 'diverging' Channel Up (dotted lines), that will aim for a similar Higher High range (+12.15%) as the January 28 High. Since however the price already broke below the 4H MA50 (blue trend-line), we have to consider the possibility of a lower decline, which can indeed be as low as the bottom of the Channel Up, on a -9.00% decline (such as the January 03 Low). We believe though that in order to establish the new medium-term uptrend, the 1D MA50 (red trend-line) has to hold, so most likely this is the potential max downside extension. With that long, we will target the top of the (blue) Channel Up at 81.00, a little lower than the previous +14.40% Bullish Leg. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Please LIKE 👍, FOLLOW ✅, SHARE 🙌 and COMMENT ✍ if you enjoy this idea!

Oh Crude!!What's with all this volatility!To begin with, if you did see my earlier post on Crude, I would want to admit to have counted the waves wrongly. What i expected to be a third wave top was in fact a wave v top and the pullback i was considering to be wave iv pullback turned out to be a much deeper wave II pullback. If you follow Elliot waves you would have gotten an idea what i am talking about, if not then do not bother. Here is what is important thing to focus on. Where is the crude standing on this chart? It is at the most important spot that it could be at right now. i. this area of 73-75$ zone is a previously tested horizontal support/resistance zone. ii.$74.09 is the 61.8% retracement level of the May-Sep rally. iii. this is also a area of support from the lower boundary of the rising channel. This therefore is the most important confluence zone for crude and the level that will determine whether it will head to the 60$ mark or the 100$ mark from here. I have made the necessary changes to my wave counts and I am definitely on the $100 team and not the 60$ team. Wave iii will achieve wave i equality at $107(Elliot wave projection). On the downside the swing low of 72.22 is the crucial support level to watch out for.

WTI CRUDE OIL: Very dangerous 1W MACD Bearish Cross formed.WTI Crude Oil materialized our 78.50 short term target (chart at the bottom) and crossed under the 1D MA200. This is a breach of potentially serious consequences as it also breached the 1W MA50, so we need to monitor the closing on a weekly scale. If it closes under it, the bearish trend is very likely to be extended. The formarion of a MACD Bearish Cross on the 1W timeframe can be very dangerous as the last one that happaned while the price breached the 1W MA50 was on June 13th 2022, the market High after the Russia invasion peak. If the market does close the week under the 1W MA50, we expect a rebound on the Channel Down bottom near 76.00 and if the candles close under the 1W MA50, fresh short targeting the 1W MA200 (TP = 71.00).

THE WORLD IS CHANGING, SO IS THE OIL PRICE MOVEMENTSCAPITALCOM:OIL_BRENT On the fundamental side, Brent oil prices have been supported by a number of factors in recent months, including: Strong global economic growth, which has boosted demand for oil. Supply disruptions caused by the ongoing conflict in Ukraine. The decision by OPEC+ to cut production by 2 million barrels per day. The war in Iran, which has raised concerns about further supply disruptions. However, there are also some headwinds facing Brent oil prices, including: The potential for a global economic recession, which would reduce demand for oil. The release of oil from strategic reserves by the United States and other countries. The increasing popularity of electric vehicles, which could reduce demand for oil in the long term. Overall, the fundamental outlook for Brent oil is bullish. The factors supporting prices are likely to outweigh the headwinds in the near term, but there are some risks to the upside potential. Technical analysis On the technical side, Brent oil is currently in an uptrend. On the 30-minute chart, the price is above the 50-day and 200-day moving averages, and the RSI indicator is above 50. This suggests that the bulls are in control and that the price is likely to continue to rise in the near term. On the 4-hour chart, the price is also above the 50-day and 200-day moving averages, and the MACD indicator is giving a bullish crossover signal. This further confirms the uptrend on the 4-hour chart. On the daily chart, the price is also above the 50-day and 200-day moving averages, and the RSI indicator is above 50. This suggests that the uptrend is likely to continue on the daily chart as well. Elliott wave analysis Elliott wave analysis suggests that Brent oil is currently in the fifth wave of a five-wave Elliott wave sequence. This means that the price is likely to continue to rise until it reaches its target, which is around $100 per barrel. Conclusion Overall, the fundamental and technical outlook for Brent oil is bullish. The price is likely to continue to rise in the near term, with a target of around $100 per barrel. However, investors should be aware of the risks posed by a potential global economic recession and the ongoing war in Iran. Additional thoughts on the war in Iran The war in Iran is a significant wildcard for the oil market. If the war escalates, it could lead to a major disruption in oil supplies, which would send prices soaring. However, it is also possible that the war will be resolved quickly, with minimal impact on the oil market. Investors should closely monitor the situation in Iran and be prepared to adjust their positions accordingly. I am deeply saddened by any war and the conflicts happening around the world. My heart goes out to all those who have been affected by this violence. I know that words alone cannot heal the pain of those who have lost loved ones or been displaced from their homes. However, I want to express my solidarity with all those who are suffering and to let them know that they are not alone. I believe that peace and understanding are essential for a better future. I hope that we can find a way to resolve these conflicts peacefully and build a more just and equitable world for all. This being said, coming back to our analysis, good luck everyone in your financial decisions.

Will WTI follow Natty into the basement? Is WTI going to suffer the same fate as Natural Gas ? Endearingly referred to as Natty ? Well the good ship Natty got REKT last week. The long side which was overcrowded, overleveraged caught the "to da moon" bagholders off guard . Stunned whilst spitting out the kool aid they were seen gasping for air when the dead cat bounce rocked the boat ., Natty was batterred and was last seen heading into shallow water dangerously close to the rocks . Choppy water ahead alert the marine units. The setup on CL very same chart right before the dump so spread out grab your umbrellas !!! The trade : Let price action have the final say on your entry get the best price you can very important! Patience pays when shorting! Monday may get some purchasing for the week early on so shorts may get pinched a bit before any ride either way. Wednesday the EIA inventory numbers are relesed at 10:30 EST. OPEC meeting also this week I believe so expect volatility. Sell 83.60 & higher use stops longer time frames target 59.50 might be best move of the year if it goes. Record or near record inventory build over the last month so stay tuned! Not a trade recommendation or a reccomendation to buy or sell securites of any kind.

CRUDE OIL TO HIT $160!?😳The price of Crude Oil gapped 6% on market open tonight & moved up 460 PIPS😳 What a crazy move! This was caused on the back of Saudi Arabia & OPEC announcing further Oil output cuts of around 1.16 million barrels a day. This is their way of fighting back against the U.S. & punishing them. This'll create immediate price rises in the United States, then also follow into the U.K.📉 I did warn you guys that this PLANNED Oil shortage & price rise will be next pandemic! This is what will force the everyday person to start switching to electric vehicles.

Crude has sold off to the 200-week ma but still looks vulnerableCrude Oil has come under increasing downside pressure and has sold off to the 200-week ma at 66.15. We have various long term supports back to 64.54 (55-month ma) but given the sell signal on the weekly DMI AND the symmetrical triangle, which offers a downside measurement to 60.00, we continue to view this market as still vulnerable.

WTI OIL Short-term breakout levels and one long-term to considerWTI Oil (USOIL) broke today above its 4H MA50 (blue trend-line) after three consecutive rejections and is going for the 1D MA50 (green trend-line) test where it was rejected on October 20. A break above it would be a short-term bullish break-out signal, targeting the top (Lower Highs trend-line) of the Channel Down pattern that the commodity has been trading in since June 29 (rough estimate 90.00). Remember that this is the very same Channel Down that helped us take an accurate sell position 2 weeks ago as shown on the chart below: If however the price breaks below the (dashed) Higher Lows trend-line, we will take it as a break-out sell signal, initially targeting the middle (dotted line) of the Channel Down, which is where the crucial 1W MA100 (yellow trend-line) is and then the September 25 Low (76.20) in extension (but only if the 1W candle closes below the 1W MA100). Keep in mind that the only level we can buy comfortably on is upon a break above the 1D MA100 (red trend-line), which has been unbroken since July 05. That would target 105.00 initially. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Please LIKE 👍, SUBSCRIBE ✅, SHARE 🙌 and COMMENT ✍ if you enjoy this idea!
