Update #OIL #WTI #OOTTI do not have a good explanation of what has happened in crude and have to fall back to the previously outlined expanding diagonal scenario. This is weak, however, because it is supposed to be rare.
If it proves to be the case the price will take off with acceleration and the move up will be a 3 wave move like illustrated.
Brent
UKOIL(BRENT)-06/19/2023Preferred direction: BUY
Comment: Closing the price above the local resistance 76.30 creates a potential movement for buyers towards 77.39. This will be another major buying hurdle as it is medium term resistance. Given the context of the price movement towards this resistance, there is a very high probability of a breakout to the upside. Perhaps this will not be the biggest upward impulse, however, the approach to the round value of 80 will most likely be provided.

USOIL UpdateThe move in oil is just starting, and I expect the price to wobble early next week before surging to the $80+ zone.
The larger picture provides for the short-lived surge and the price ranging until the end of summer-early September.
All this comes from a bigger picture of unfinished correction that started in March 2022. Such an outlook broadly coincides with my view of the stock market, which I expect to decline in a similar timeline. See my earlier posts on S&P500.
#OIL #OOTT UpdateI think I just decoded the oil chart. I have been contemplating a rise to $90+ because I expected ABC flat where I now see WXY combination of zigzag, zigzag and triangle. The chart now perfectly aligns with Brent where wave [ B] did make lowest low presumably shaping a symmetrical triangle whereas WTI is working on a running triangle.
That means that we have only strong push left upwards from current low which should come either as a straight impulse or an expanding diagonal which will be extremely annoying.
#OIL #OOTT UpdateI probably sound desperate as I keep drawing lines into the sky. However, I am still convinced that we are in a first correction of a bull move that will run until the end of summer or something. The count has got simple and more aggressive now without stops until 80+. Ok, now you can call me a dreamer.
#Gasoil Update Gasoil Elliott Wave story is less controversial than Crude Oil story . The price rests on Moving Averages support and Gasoil crack appears to be on an upward trend too. This suggests that refinery margins are likely to improve.
In practice, this means that Gasoil prices are likely to grow faster than Oil prices, perhaps due to unsatisfied demand for diesel fuel.
What I also dislike a bit here is that wave (ii) seems a bit too complicated, being a combination of flat w, simple zigzag x and another simple zigzag y. I was taught that although possible such combinations are rare and shall be used only labeling in retrospective when no other alternatives fit. Now it is part of the ongoing trade and if I am proven wrong I will have to stricten my rules about this combination.
#Oil #OOTT UpdateWow oil has been very tough lately. Many times I jumped the gun with long calls. I am actually bearish into the end of 2023. The reason I am so stubborn to pick the local bottom is that my charts just do not make sense without this last big jump to 90-100 range that I expect any time soon.
The chart is a complete meat grinder. The price is actually trading under moving averages on many timeframes and sending me bearish technical signals. There are bearish candles and engulfings all over the chart. It is only the Elliott Wave count that keeps me bullish since I cannot see an alternative that could continue the downtrend.
However, I am running out of bullish counts as well. The leading diagonal is very risky bet without having it fully formed. However, besides Elliott Wave count there are emerging signs in support of bullish case. See the falling trendline that the price broke through and now retesting from above in a good bye kiss? Gasoil chart looks more pointed upwards trading above moving averages. And gasoil crack has made a bottom and is recovering (will post as an update to this chart).
USOIL UpdateAll right, seems like the oil is tightly following the scenario with a leading diagonal. So far, I see no alternative options at this moment other than wave can complicated further and make another dip. Once low is in the trendline 0- shall not be violated by (B) low in the next (A)(B)(C) zigzag.
#OIL UpdateWith this flash crash, presumably caused by US-Iran news about a possible swap of nuclear program for oil sanctions , we're back to the scenario where wave [ 2] is already complete and we're in a leading diagonal formation. The nefarious option of an expanding diagonal remains, but it is less likely.
USOIL UpdateRight... Clearly, the market is not impressed by His Royal Highness' ability to reign over the oil price. Having said that, I still see an immediate uptrend.
So, either the market will reconsider or something new will occur.
The outlook remains unchanged; I simply had to shift local tops and bottoms.
Brent.Medium-term forecastSeries of 1-2 1-2 can lead brent price to 30 dollars area . It seems impossible today , but in the end of 2019 before the crash " everything was good " Recession , Deflation , liquidity problems will prices down . Everyone hopes on light recession , but everything will be much more worse
WTI UpdateOkay, the Saudis did cut. I must confess that I underestimated His Royal Highness's ability to surprise. That leaves us with a possible gap on Monday. Given the market pressures and the fact that the previous cut was ineffective in sustaining the price, the gap is unlikely to be as large as in April.
The gap is, most likely, wave 3 of (c) of the first wave up in the leading diagonal. There is still a chance that wave (ii) will close the gap, as shown on the chart.
MBS, you did an excellent job. I am not as long as I could have been.
