USOIL Approaching The Resistance! Sell!
Hello,Traders!
USOIL broke the falling resistance line
Which makes me bullish biased mid-term
But the initial breakout push is almost over
So a pullback is coming and I think
That it will begin after the retest
Of the resistance level above
Sell!

Fed may destroy Oil Demand - Stay CautiousAs soon as the US Fed shifted into rate increases - traders should have suddenly elevated their protection tactics.
The Fed's objective is to beat inflation and remove the easy money mentality. In order to do that, they may have to break consumers, industry, global economics, and the general demand cycle for cars, homes, credit/debt, and more.
What happens when the Fed raises rates to a point where the global economy comes to a crashing halt? Consumers react by pausing or stalling travel/spending plans - creating demand destruction for Oil, Lumber, and other commodities.
In my opinion, it is just a matter of time before Crude Oil collapses downward, headed into a typical seasonal cycle (winter). I believe we may be entering a period of very dangerous demand destruction as the US Fed may have pushed rates too high (again).
Stock up. Things could get really WONKY.
Follow my research.
Economic Turmoil and Political Tensions Evoking Crude OilThe candlestick pattern at the lowest low is very probable to be the pivot point for the downward consolidation of oil. October also can be closed by a green candle after 4 months of drop. The political and economic conditions are making the pivot more valid at the moment.
OIL HIGHER AFTER MIDTERM ELECTIONSFUNDAMENTALS:
- OPEC is for higher prices
- Sanctions on Russian oil will drive price up
- Developing Diesel shortages will drive price up
TECHNICALS:
- Price made a Higher Low on the D1
- Price is at Role Reversal Zone = 50% of downswing = Quarterly Pivot
- Looking for price to respect demand-zone and break above SELL-VWAP
TIMING:
- Expect trend to take off after midterm elections (> NOV 8)
CRUDE OIL EXPECTED RALLYRising US crude exports, indicator for increased demand, and weakening of the dollar helped for a price surge of WTI, which broke and close above the 12 days formed resistance on the 4H graph.
The technical indicators are also suggesting a bullish movement, with MACD histogram above 0 line and rising and RSI above 50 neutral line.
If this movement continues, the price of the instrument might try to reach levels of 93.8, but in the opposite scenario the price might test its previous support at 82.7

Uncertainty by Mixed Signals Hit Traders AgainOn the weekly chart of WTI, uncertainty is clear in the last candle. Buyers and sellers were both indecisive.
On the daily chart, the MACD indicator seems to be crossing and changing the phase. Oil might open lower on Monday but it is possible to see volatilities throughout the week.
The recession is nearly the strongest bearish factor holding oil prices down. The dollar index is increasing and it brings more fear to the markets.
Is Crude going to fall below $69 over before the end of 2022?You tell me? My analysis is that Asia/Europe will contract demand as high Natural Gas and other economic constraints pull purse strings throughout the Christmas Holidays/Winter.
If this happens, we may see a demand destruction cycle take place in Oil that could be 40~50% of the demand destruction that took place when COVID hit.
The new strains of COVID are already making news and any pump in infections throughout Asia/EU/Africa may send 65% of the world into LOCKDOWNS again.
Don't get too bullish as it appears Crude is attempting to settle below $69 ppb.
FYI.

WTI oil - Deteriorating demand to weight on the higher oil priceSince our short-term price target of 80 USD was taken out a few weeks ago, we abstained from setting short and medium-term price targets because of very high volatility in the oil market. Despite that, we stuck to the long-term price target of 70 USD, to which we remain committed.
Our views are based mainly on fundamental factors concerning the deteriorating global demand for oil, with the OPEC slashing demand for 2023 and China maintaining its zero covid policy for longer.
Technical analysis - daily time frame
RSI and Stochastic are bearish. MACD is neutral. DM+ and DM- strive to perform a bearish crossover. Overall, the daily time frame is neutral/slightly bearish.

Quick Drop of CommoditiesThe price has been under 100 and 200 MA. You can see the death cross formed in the daily chart. Therefore, we can expect a fall of crude to 80 or lower. Yet in the weekly crude chart, we still have the support of 200 MA and The price movement should be observed at that level.
CRUDE down first before all elseA few simple observations that tell of Crude falling over, despite a previous week of strong bullish price movement from OPEC cuts announcements.
Weekly chart had crude price break above the 55EMA strongly the previous week with a marubozu like candlestick. However, not only did it failed resistance at 94 (dark green line); it broke back down in failure of the weekly 55EMA (white line).
Weekly candlestick formed a Dark Cloud Cover, fully qualified (unlike the SPY. Read about the Dark Cloud Cover candlestick pattern here . This candlestick pattern does not happen often, but is significant as it tells a very logical underlying issue. The gap up is an exhaustion spike, then the downward momentum to more than half of the previous bullish body underscores the overwhelming of the bulls and the victory of the bears. A follow through down candle seals it.
To break the current TD Sequential Setup, the incoming week must close way below 79. Oddly enough, to change the primary trend in the daily chart to a bearish trend, price has to close below 79. Coincidence? Maybe, but 79 IS the critical support now.
The daily chart (right) has its own failures too. We see a clear breakdown failure of the daily 55EMA, coincidentally about a similar level as the weekly 55EMA (white line). With a retest failure just this week, it ended with a nice large red candle that engulfed the previous day's test of the 55EMA. Here, technical indicators all show more downside to come.
In like with all of these, the expected surge of the USD (recently posted and linked below) over the next few weeks; it appears that crude is about to tank to 70-75. Previously projected a downside target of 70, might have to readjust closer to 75, as conditions continue to develop and evolve.
Crude appears bearish (again) in the short term.
WTI Crude Oil headed for 96?Following a 3-day pullback from 93.64, WTI produced a bullish engulfing candle on the daily chart which closed back above the 20-day EMA. Given the strength of the rally from the 76.30 low, we suspect a corrective low has been found.
The 4-hour chart shows that there was a lot of trading activity around 87.60 since the September low (which marks the volume POC / point of control). But also note that yesterday's low held above a previous bullish engulfing candle on the 4-hour chart, rebounded above the 200-bar EMA and a bullish engulfing candle closed firmly above trend resistance. Prices are pulling back in Asia so we're now looking for opportunities to enter long above the 88.0 area / monthly R1 pivot point, and anticipate prices to retest the 94 highs and head for 96 - or even the high around 97.66.
