TECHNICAL
This is largely based on a technical situation:
Two (2) fib levels confluence
88.8% ( MAY ’18 -> DEC ‘18 )
1.27% ( MAR ’19 -> APR ‘19 )
One ( 1 ) notable Fib “Time” Level ( 1.382% FEB ’16 -> MAY ’18 ( Bullish Retrenchment ) )
Previous Structure
Mid ’18, Aug ’17 & Jun ‘15
RSI Divergence
RSI ( Daily Chart ) topped out in MAR; a further push up would be x2 divergence
100 Day MA
I haven’t fully quantified this part albeit it will likely end up ~20% above the 100 day moving average; it has certainly exceeded that ( NOV -> DEC ’18 ) albeit 20% was the top in MAY ‘18
Round #
It’s a round #
FUNDAMENTAL
There are a lot of fundamental factors affecting why this might not be a good trade. The US is looking to end waivers on Iran, Venezuela ( it’s happening ), Saudi Aramco is looking to IPO soon, etc.
On the other hand, Trump has been pretty quiet on oil prices ( BTW – I know this trade is RBOB ) & seasonality ( I haven’t done my own research yet ) suggests it’s coming to a consolidation stage ( link ).
IN SHORT
Stop Loss: ( 2.2587 )
TP: ( 0.618 from 24 DEC ‘18 however far it pushes into it )
Gasoline forecast until end of year (RBOB)Looks like the price will remain in this channel until the end of the year, look out for confirmation of the long movement, then short when you get confirmation of the movement down from the top.
Hit like if you agree.
Follow for more forecasts like this.
Gasoline Entering holiday weekend and hurricane after effects, we should see a few weeks of significant draw downs in inventory.
A good one could be setting upThis spread is now on the radar but waiting to see thing settle down a bit in Texas. So will be ready to act when refiners come back on line or if we push to a crazy extreme
Energy spread going down New January contracts spread look to go down. Setup is not so clear, so I prefer to wait outside.
Hitting suppoort around 43, sideways & upCrude is hitting some support as it come close to the (blue) up-sloping trendline at around 43.
Additionally the 200 day MA is right around that area.
We are oversold in terms of Bollinger, RSI and Stochastik, with the Stochastik generating a buy signal
Should the market break, targets on the downside at 39, 35 and contract low at 26ish....
Option idea:
IMHO selling put spreads. I would avoid purchasing any upside premium of any kind
How to use a SIGNAL So if you have been following my trades you may have noticed that I have been learning some new trading things. Like last weeks lesson, learning how to use a signal. Got the trade setup down great I think. Waiting patiently for the right market conditions. I just need to wait for a signal.
I think I will use price when it crosses the red 89 hour sma.
