Range Trading Light Crude Oil-Crude oil is currently trading in a ranging market environment between 83.34 and 70.08 (larger range). Price is also in a smaller range between 82.66 and 72.46 (smaller range).
-From how I see the markets, the 10AM Feb 23 candle was a retest of a fair value gap before a move higher continues aiming between 79.73 and 81.50 price levels. I would like to see the fair value gap left open and not rebalanced completely.
-Bias: Bullish (within the ranges outlined only)
-Why? Some buyside liquidity will likely be rebalanced with a possible sweep to the upside to test the 83.00 level.
-Targets: 79.73-81.5, possibly up to 82.66 for a sweep.
Sweet
SLP can rise to 0.045In my previous SLP analysis, I said that there is a high probability of a higher low in place at 0.015 and after a spike to 0.025 the coin started to consolidate above 0.02.
I'm bullish as long as the price is above 0.015 and a buy at this moment could have a 1:3 risk: reward if we target 0.045 previous high.
However, a return of optimism in the crypto market could drive the price even higher at 0.06
A drop under 0.015 would delay this bullish outlook.
OIL About To Make a Decision. Will it be $13 Or $30?Oil is riding down the descending channel quite well. I feel like $13.50 could happen but maybe its time for a bounce based on everyone going short at this point. Maybe a short squeeze? I haven't really looked into short positions but I know they have been gaining for months. Assuming that we are to break up, we wouldn't see a ton of resistance until $30. I think a bounce to $25 would be the minimum. However, until we break up, the most likely scenario is down.
Personally I would wait for sub $20 to go short or above $22 to go long.
On one last note on oil production is that the Russians are rumored to be able to drill oil down to $14 a barrel before loosing money. And the theory is that they would do this to gain market share. That last bit is highly speculative information but I am throwing it out there.
This is not financial advice. Please do your own research and analyze your own trades.
OIL BEARS Coming Out Of HibernationI have been long term Bearish on oil expecting a few rallys up on the way down. Here is my long term projection for oil, anticipating $25 a barrel. We landed on the 38% retracement here last year as a response to the decline down from 2009. I think that rally to the .38 was the last for bit.
SRT Gold SPOT - Whole Trending PairGold is mostly aways from ranging and channels and thats why its the sweet spot. However, Gold is either an Obedient dog or a ratchet one. Finding sweet spots for the pair is the Key because it obeys them.
Over here we have 3 trades based on Trends and SR lines. A broken triangle gives us a bullish but failure to the trade, we take a short on trendline break with two take profits. One or both will be hit this time.
