WTI OIL Sell signal at the top of the Channel Down.WIT Oil (USOIL) didn't disappoint last time we looked at it (June 05, see chart below) and delivered our buy signal, easily hitting the 75.70 Target:
The price is now at the top (Lower Highs trend-line) of the 2-month Channel Down and just below the 4H MA200 (orange trend-line), which is where the last Lower High was priced and rejected. At the same time, the 1D RSI is on the 53.80 Resistance, which was the level that priced the last two Lower Highs.
Technically this is the most optimal sell entry on this pattern. We have a modest target at 72.45 (Support 1), as despite the fact that a Lower Low is expected lower, the 1W MA200 looms as a Support and long-term may form a strong Support base. That remains to be seen, so for the time being we take only short-term targets.

Hellena | Oil (4H): Long, correction to the area of 76.326.Dear colleagues, I have analyzed for a long time and came to the conclusion that the price will probably continue to decline, but at the moment I see that wave “3” is not formed yet, and therefore wave “4” is not formed either. Therefore, I expect a correction to the area of 76.326, but it is desirable that the price does not reach the level of 76.50, because this is the minimum of wave “1”.

Crude Oil : Monthly candle flips bullish Hello Traders. The Daily Range today on Crude Oil was 2.89$. This is in the top 10% of the 113 Daily candles that we've observed so far this year for Crude. Quite the move to the upside to begin the week! We mirrored the move bearish from the previous week, which happened to be on Monday as well. The monthly candle managed to flip back bullish as we kickoff the second week of June. After tapping into 72.58 Weekly support level last week, price jumped up. We hadn't seen this price since Jan/Feb of this year and so mpt surprised to see Bulls step in an push price up. Interesting to note that the Daily candle today failed to close with a top wick. This signals some profit taking and exhaustion based off my analysis. Additionally, ever since the new daily candle opened, price has been pulling back down. Tuesday is starting out bearish.. will buyers step back in? Where could they? These are the prices I like for the upcoming sessions.
USOIL - Summer demand expectations are supporting pricesReuters stated that the Fed has raised hobby prices sharply in 2022 and 2023 to minimize growing inflation. Rising borrowing fees for customers and corporations ought to gradual financial boom and decrease oil call for. Meanwhile, a robust dollar ought to hose down oil call for via way of means of making greenback-denominated commodities like oil extra costly for holders of different currencies.
Commenting at the surprising acceleration in oil costs, analysts at strength consulting company Gelber and Associates stated summer time season call for expectancies are helping costs.
Goldman Sachs analysts stated they anticipate Brent oil costs to upward thrust to $86/barrel withinside the 0.33 quarter. In their report, those analysts stated that strong summer time season transportation call for will push the oil marketplace right into a deficit of 1.three million barrels in step with day withinside the 0.33 quarter.
Oil costs rose regardless of the greenback growing to a four-week excessive following a pointy decline withinside the euro.
Last week, oil costs fell for the 0.33 consecutive week because of worries that the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries and its allies` (OPEC+) plan to boost a few manufacturing cuts from October might similarly growth supply.
Investor interest is presently turning to US purchaser charge index records for May to be launched on June 12, searching out suggestions approximately whilst the Fed can also additionally begin decreasing hobby prices. The marketplace is additionally "waiting" for the consequences of the Fed's two-day coverage assembly beginning on June 12 with the expectancy that americaA Central Bank will preserve hobby prices stable.
The marketplace has tempered expectancies for a Fed charge reduce in September following jobs boom records launched ultimate week. According to records from LSEG Financial Company, buyers additionally diminished expectancies approximately the extent of Fed easing this year, with handiest one hobby charge reduce.
USOIL ANALYSIS (SHORT) (11/06/24)Pretty self explanatory and simple. Using the bias (Bearish) I simply mapped out the last area which created a significant break. Within this area - price should gear towards the demand zone below - however I do acknowledge that price had already reached demand in an earlier period and therefore if price breaks through the POI (For which there will be potential to do so - due to upper imbalance found on a bigger TF), I would seek for an entry point allowing me to ride out the buy.
2024-06-10 - a daily price action after hour update - oilGood Evening and I hope you are well.
overall market comment
Markets went mostly flat today. Dax sears tried and were rejected again and sp500 and nasdaq made higher lows and lower highs. Markets are forming triangles which means we are in breakout mode again. No surprise moving into CPI and FOMC this week. I expect more sideways movement until then.
Commodities all green, while Gold is flat, Oil continued the pull-back big time to get back to 78. Bulls strength surprised me tbh. The pull-back is already too strong for the bear trend to continue much further. Oil trading range is probably 72 - 80 for the next weeks.
wti crude oil
comment: Don’t long at the top of a expanding triangle and after a huge buy climax. In my weekly outlook I wrote that we will hit the daily ema at around 77 again but I obviously did not expect it to be done so fast. Oil was still in a trading range until the breakout above 76.23 but bulls kept at it and the 15m ema held into US close. Since we are at the top of the expanding triangle, I am not interested in buying up here. A pull-back is reasonable here but as of right now, bulls are in full control until bears break below the 15m ema and one should not short into such a strong trend. 78 should be bigger resistance.
current market cycle: Trading range
key levels: 72 - 80
bull case: With today the bear trend concludes imo, since the move was too strong to be part of the bear trend. The 72.48 low could be retested over the next days to weeks but the downside is probably limited to around that area. Bulls want the strong momentum to continue and get most bears stops above 80. It would be insanely strong, if they could break above the bear channel in one giant move over two days. It’s very low probability that this will happen. If it does, we are probably facing an macro event over the next days.
Invalid below 70
bear case: Bears gave up above 76.3 and market moved fast to 78. If bears can not keep it below 78, we will probably melt more up to 80. My line in the sand for bears was around 77-77.5 but bulls melted through. Not many arguments for the bears here until they get below the 15m ema and stop the market from making higher highs.
short term: Bullish af. If this continues, we see 80 soon. If we see 79 in Globex, the chances of an event are big imo. Something is up.
medium-long term: We are seeing the big triangle playing out between 73 and 86 (could also be 87 but for now I see the spike above 83 as a failed breakout of the triangle. We hit the lower trend line and now we will test back up to above 83. —will update this Wednesday
current swing trade: None
trade of the day: I had no interest in buying above 75.5 and under 76.3 but missed the big breakout. Bad trading on my part. Had to get long since bar 9 or latest bar 10.

WISH YOU ALL LUCK
WTI rises to test key resistanceCrude oil prices rose on Monday, making back its losses from Friday and some. While there is hope for increased fuel demand as we head to the summer months, today’s recovery comes on the back of a three-week drop. Prices have been held back in recent weeks because of various factors, ranging from concerns over increased non-OPEC supply and worries about the demand outlook, due, among other reasons, to diminished hopes over imminent US interest rate cuts. The strong dollar recovery is also weighing on sentiment in the oil market. But with prices shedding more than 10% from their April highs, the bulls feel the downside could be more limited moving forward. However, a revisit of last week’s lows of around $72.50 on WTI remains the more probable outcome than a sharp recovery. Key macro events in this week include US inflation data and the Federal Reserve’s rate decision on Wednesday, both of which could significantly impact the US dollar and, consequently, buck-denominated commodities like gold and oil.
Oil prices closed off well off the lows last week
The crude oil selling resumed on Friday after a two-day pause. While the losses were milder than earlier in the week and less severe than the drop in metals, this was due to a strong jobs report and positive services PMI data that alleviated fears of weakening demand in the US. Nonetheless, concerns over China persisted, leading to lower prices for the week. Investors were also spooked by the sell-off in other commodities like copper and silver.
The selling on oil was also driven by speculative long positions being pared last week by managed funds and large speculators. Not only that but they also increased their short positions last week, resulting in a decrease in net-long exposure. According to positioning data from the CFTC, managed funds increased their short positions by 27.2k contracts, while large speculators increased theirs by 22.1k contracts (21.9%). This positioning data reflects the market response to OPEC's decision to extend oil production cuts. It suggests that traders either anticipated more aggressive support for prices from OPEC, are concerned about declining demand due to a slowing economy, or likely a combination of both factors.
Why did all major commodities fall on Friday?
The sharp fall in major commodity prices on Friday was driven by a rally in the US dollar, which negatively impacts dollar-denominated commodities. This rally was triggered by stronger-than-expected jobs growth, even though part-time jobs contributed to this increase. Metals were already under pressure prior to the jobs report due to concerns over lower-than-expected Chinese demand for industrial metals and rising copper stockpiles. Additionally, the People’s Bank of China halting its gold purchases in May after an 18-month streak also pressured precious metals, contributing to bearish sentiment in the commodities market.
What has been driving oil prices recently?
Oil prices have been primarily driven lower by demand concerns and an increase in non-OPEC supply. According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), there is a significant surplus of oil this year, largely due to the growth in US shale production. Consistently weak manufacturing data worldwide has heightened demand concerns. This was particularly evident when crude oil prices dropped to their lowest level since February following weak US factory data. The OPEC+ decision to extend output cuts failed to support oil prices as it was already priced in, and there are worries about phasing out voluntary output cuts amid rising non-OPEC supply. However, with the US driving season underway, demand might pick up, potentially slowing or reversing the sell-off.
Currently, no strong bullish reversal signs have been observed, however, which means the short-term path pf least resistance on oil remains to the downside.
Crude Oil Technical Analysis
The recent drop in oil prices has established a clear resistance level between $76.00 and $76.50 on WTI, which was tested and held on Friday. This will be a crucial resistance area to monitor in the coming week.
As long as prices remain below this zone, the bearish trend is expected to continue. There was an oversold bounce last week, but a decline towards the support trend of the bearish channel, around the $73.00 mark or slightly below, is possible this week. WTI has been stuck in a bearish channel since peaking in April. The next major support level below the bearish channel is at $70.00, followed by the December low at $67.87.
However, if WTI were to reclaim the old broken support area between $76.00 and $76.50, it could signal a bullish trend, potentially leading to technical buying towards the top of the bearish channel, between $78.00 and $79.00.

#202424 - a weekly price action market recap and outlook - oilGood Evening and I hope you are well.
wti crude oil futures
Quote from last week:
bear case: Bears sold 80 again and will probably take profits here at 77 or try to get 76 again. If they get a breakout below, we will probably test 75, which is a price I thought we would test for 5-7 weeks now. It’s a bad sell here at 77 for bears so best they can get is sideways movement.
comment: Fair to say that bears surprised me big time on Monday with the huge follow through selling through previous bigger support. 72 stopped the fall and created an expected bounce. I do think this was W5 and my bearish targets are all met for now. Market should move sideways to up from here. On Friday we got a perfect retest of the breakout price of 76 and that was resistance for now. Worst case scenario for bulls would be to stay below 76. The bull trend line will get retested and should hold for now.
current market cycle: Bear trend which could transition into a trading range here
key levels: 72-78
bull case: The best the bulls can hope for, is for the lows to hold and to move sideways and hit the daily ema again. They failed at keeping it above 75, which was huge support. Last bear leg inside this bigger trading range was 11 weeks long from high to low and we are currently at 9 weeks. Bulls will want to find support here around 70-72 and trade back up to at least 78 over the next 8-12 weeks.
Invalidation is below 71.
bear case: Huge bear surprise imo on Monday and bears want to keep it max bearish and they will do that by keeping the market below the breakout price around 76 and below the daily ema. They want a retest of 72.5 again and poke the bull trend line enough for bulls to give up there. If they actually get an acceleration of this bear trend, which is the low probability thing, they could retest 70 next and below 70 comes 67 as support.
Invalidation is above 80.5.
outlook last week: “R:R is on the bull side here at the bottom of this range. I wait for confirmation on Monday before going long for 80 again. Below 76 we could get to 75 but that would require strong momentum for me to go short down here.”
→ Last Sunday we traded 76.99 and now we are at 75.53. High of the week was 77.52 so the uber bearish price action, was surprising to me. I did not advise you to be bullish, unless there confirmation for the bulls and obviously that did not happen. So my bearish target of 75, if we go below 76, was alright but way too short of 72.48. Not a good outlook.
short term: Neutral because I think we will hit the daily ema again and a retest of 72.5ish. I am not a fortune teller so I don’t know which comes first.
medium-long term: We are seeing the big triangle playing out between 73 and 83. The high of the triangle got tested until mid of April and we have now tested the lows around 72.5. Market will probably move more inside this big range until we get a new big cycle to either side.
current swing trade: None
chart update: Added my pretty bear channel, adjusted 5-wave series and added a two-legged pullback, which we are probably in as of now. The red ABC is how I imagine it to play out price-wise, not time wise. We should see a retest of the lows as well as the daily ema. I don’t know which comes before what or when. Also adjusted the big bear trend line from 2022.

USOIL PULLBACK BEFORE ANOTHER DIP#USOIL As predicted last time, we observed a significant drop following the breakout identified in the bullish channel. Currently, we see consolidation, a bearish impulse, and now a pullback. We anticipate another downward movement once the current bullish impulse concludes. This is expected to retest the recent lows near the major demand zone previously highlighted.

CRUDE OIL (CL): Weak Momentum Likely to Persist?Assalamualaikum wbt and Good Day to fellow traders!
From my rather simplistic view, the overall two-hour time frame (TF2hr) chart seems to indicate that the prices for WTI Light Crude Oil ( NYMEX:CL1! ) could go further south at least for the time being.
The further potential weakness is being reinforced by the significant key moving averages (in this case Exponential Moving Averages or EMAs ) - the EMA50 (blue line) and EMA200 (amber line) - in which the Black Gold sits below those lines since April 17, 2024.
Despite several rebound attempts, the commodity has continued to slide downwards making some notable Lower Lows and Lower Highs until recently last Friday while trading range-bound in between.
In addition, the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator also flashed a cautious sell signal last Friday following a cross over.
On top of that, the obvious rejection at the 76.03-76.30 key level could possibly suggest that the bearish momentum is still in play.
However, a bullish reversal may occur should the MACD crossover take place above the 0 line with the help of a significant volume, as well as the two EMAs crossing up.
Wallahu a'lam.

USOIL SENDS CLEAR BEARISH SIGNALS|SHORT
Hello,Friends!
It makes sense for us to go short on USOIL right now from the resistance line above with the target of 73.84 because of the confluence of the two strong factors which are the general downtrend on the previous 1W candle and the overbought situation on the lower TF determined by it’s proximity to the upper BB band.
