Micro WTI Crude Oil Futures(MCL1!),H4 Potential for Bullish RiseType : Bullish Rise
Resistance : 100.74
Pivot: 98.96
Support : 97.95
Preferred Case: On the H4, with prices moving within an ascending channel and above the ichimoku indicator, we have a bullish bias that price will rise to the pivot at 98.96 where the swing high resistance, 78.6% fibonacci projection and 78.6% fibonacci retracement are. Once there is upside confirmation of price breaking pivot structure, we would expect bullish momentum to carry price to 1st resistance at 100.74 where the swing high resistance, -27.2% fibonacci expansion, 127.2% fibonacci extension and 100% fibonacci projection are.
Alternative scenario: Alternatively, price could drop to the 1st support at 97.95 where the pullback support is.
Fundamentals: Due to the weakness in DXY, we have a bullish view on Crude Oil.
LIGHT CRUDE OIL FUTURES (CL1!), H4 Potential for Bearish DropType : Bearish Momentum
Resistance : 104.47
Pivot: 101.56
Support : 95.17
Preferred Case: On the H4, with price moving within a descending channel and RSI moving along a descending trendline, we have a bearish bias that price will drop from the pivot at 101.56 where the pullback resistance and 78.6% fibonacci retracement are to 1st support at 95.17 in line with pullback support and 61.8% fibonacci retracement .
Alternative scenario: Alternatively, price may break pivot structure and rise to the 1st resistance at 104.47 where the pullback resistance is.
Fundamentals: Due to the uncertainty over the German gas crisis and supply constraint of oil , we have a bullish bias on oil . We'll need to exercise caution for this setup because our fundamentals and technicals are not completely aligned.

Resistance : 98.38
Pivot: 95.18
Support : 90.69
Preferred Case: On the H4, with price moving below the ichimoku cloud and within the descending channel, we have a bearish bias that price will drop to the pivot at 95.18 where the overlap support is. Once there is downside confirmation of price breaking pivot structure, we would expect bearish momentum to carry price to 1st support at 90.69 in line with swing low support and 78.6% fibonacci projection.
Alternative scenario: Alternatively, price may rise to the 1st resistance at 98.38 where the pullback resistance, 78.6% fibonacci projection and 50% fibonacci retracement are.

China impact on oil price - 2020 ForecastIf you like this idea, don't forget to support it, clicking the Like Button!
Do you know what are the 15 countries that imported the highest dollar value worth of crude oil during 2018?
China: US$239.2 billion (20.2% of total crude oil imports)
United States: $163.1 billion (13.8%)
India: $114.5 billion (9.7%)
Japan: $80.6 billion (6.8%)
South Korea: $80.4 billion (6.8%)
Netherlands: $48.8 billion (4.1%)
Germany: $45.1 billion (3.8%)
Spain: $34.2 billion (2.9%)
Italy: $32.6 billion (2.8%)
France: $28.5 billion (2.4%)
Thailand: $28.4 billion (2.4%)
Singapore: $28 billion (2.4%)
United Kingdom: $26 billion (2.2%)
Taiwan: $23.4 billion (2%)
Belgium: $19.5 billion (1.7%)
Now, these data are related to 2018, and it's easy to understand how the first four countries have a great impact on oil price, and how China could influence oil price (that, at this point, is influenced by China's economic development).
In 2019, China broke records for crude oil imports, importing more crude oil than the U.S. did at its peak.
We all know that oil price is affected by high volatility (I am a supporter of the "Rollercoaster Theory" XD). However, oil price increased thanks to increasing China's demand (one of the most important factors), combined with scarcity from the suppliers.
Despite this, there is a high risk that China's oil demand could halve this year (2020) generating a lower global oil demand for about $100 billion. If supply is maintained at the same levels, I will expect oil to be cheaper, at least in the first half of 2020.
From a technical point of view, the broke of the $57.11 support could realize the beginning of an important downtrend. If China confirms this information, traders will not be late to open their short positions.

USOIL - Head & Shoulder Breakout PlanUSOIL has formed an inverted head and shoulders pattern. We are currently at the neckline ~53.60's where price has touched many times. If price breaks, we can expect price to move to the upside.
Price could move up to the first zone @ ~53.97 then we may find a retracement/retest of the neckline before price moves to ~54.30.
Waiting for breakout as confirmation before we enter.
