OPEC Failed to impress and the prices reflectFriday the price chart generated an engulfing bearish bar.
Monday the prices closed between Fridays prices suggesting either consolidation/turning.
Tuesday it broke through the floor of Fridays price, crossed the 21 MA and 55 MA and closed under the 34 HMA in "cover the long" territory.
Also, with the prices below the two trend lines - it suggests that the attitude has gone bearish.
A second close below the 21 & 55 MA will give a strong indication of what the attitude truly is.
HOWEVER.
Price projection was triggered on the bullish RSI indicator projecting a fall in prices between 54.11 - 53.89
They broke the uptrend but are reluctant to sell it further.Crude did not roll over and die after breaking the uptrend. A BIG emotional candle after a disappointing eia report broke the trendline dating back to january, but what puzzles me is why it did not break down further after the retest of that line from the back.
Maybe they are anticipating the BIG DRAW eia report on wednesday and therefore hesitant? Or is this just a corrective structure (the overlapping price action would fit that) and are we coiling for a bigger move up?
As always, price will tell us.
I have marked out some possible scenarios.
Oil compressing before a "pop" down to $42It currently appears that the market is forming a triangle sideways correction.
The key is that waves (d) and (e) of this triangle patterns do not make any new lower lows or higher highs as set by the preceding waves (b) and (c).
I will be looking to trade this when we see a bounce towards wave (e), with stops places above the wave (c) peak.
At this stage it isn't yet possible to denote the bottom trend line of the triangle as there is only one point formed, namely wave (b)... so please understand that the illustrated trend lines are only 50% correct, and the bottom is speculative for illustrative purposes.
But again... the key is that any rally up should NOT exceed wave (c) peak... and I expect a decline lower after this to target $42 a barrel.
CrudeOil Forecast!!CrudeOil has reached all its target as per Previous Forecast. Crude has gone up in what looks like a 3 Wave up move where Wave A = Wave C after which it started to decline and made a bearish candle stick pattern of bearish engulfing pattern. There has been consistent divergence with MACD for the wave C up move indicating that this is perhaps not a 3rd wave rally. I would expect CrudeOil to fall towards 40 levels as first targets and then expect atleast 61.8% correction around 35 levels as second targets. Lets see how it unfolds further from there..
Happy Trading!!

Falling Stars and Rhino CatchersI had hoped to take a few days to get back into the water... But looks like we need to jump on this big Bombora.... It could play out for a while. Funny how these things form. We need to get a pretty good run from the first drop in. Bros with Rhinos will soon join the crew. We are going short with a stack of bones. Let's just hope we avoid a rail bang...
I see stars... Falling stars in the chart. We are going Short now, picking up stacks with each cut. Be safe bros.

Short WTI - Head and Shoulders Confirmation & now 2nd Chance I think WTI has formed a Head & Shoulders Pattern which if I have read correctly is one of the strongest Technical Indicators.....
This should lead to Oil falling to at least 28 and maybe even 26 again....
Iran not agreeing to cut with OPEC is perfect timing to push it up enough so it hits the neckline as you can clearly see happened today.....
It's all algo trading anyways so I don't even think the Iran & Opec situation really matters and could possibly be just coincidental
Zero hedge shows March Contracts are the primary reason for todays gains with significant interest at Strikes of 31, 30 and 28.... which amazingly enough line up with this chart....
All the above I saw myself late January as the 2nd shoulder was forming and then a day or so later came across this video which confirmed what I was thinking
