USO Trade Setup - Long Term Bullish PredictionUSO - Bullish Long Term Prediction
With the oil fund bouncing off the weekly bottom
trendline support at 9.17, and a green candle over
candle formation and RSI issuance of a buy signal
on the oversold bounce, a break over the 8ma at
10.60 and a previous candlestick resistance break
over 11.09, price action could start to move towards
major moving average bull crosses at the 100ma 11.94,
200ma 12.47, 50ma 13.29, and perhaps even a run to
top trendline resistance around the upper $16's.
USO - oversold hook 20ma break retestUSO - January 5, 2019 Trade Setup
USO closed just under the 20ma at 10.21.
This oversold hook trade setup offers
profit potential with a Monday retest over
the 20ma and a break over Friday's HOD
at 10.38. Look for resistance at price
targets of 11.09 and the 50ma at 11.54
After an Epic Fall, Oil is Testing Major Rising Support! (USO)Hi friends! Welcome to this quick update analysis on the US oil market, via the USO ETF! Let's get right to it!
Looking at the daily chart, you can see that price has bounced on my rising blue trendline support, but we're now returning to it for another test. If at any point, the rising blue trendline fails to hold, price will likely fall to the next downside support level at 8.65. Now, the oil market is heavily oversold, but that doesn't mean that it can't remain in oversold territory, as prices move further to the downside. A bounce off of the rising blue trendline should send us up to 10.70 for a resistance test.
Happy Holidays Everyone!

24% Gone Since My November 11th Warning on Oil! (USO)Hi friends! Welcome to this update analysis on the US oil market, via the USO ETF! Let's get right to it!
Looking at the daily USO chart, you can see that the USO has been plummeting, since I warned about a potential fall to $10.70 on November 11th. The oil market has been in absolute freefall. You can see that it printed a bear flag (in black) right on top of my $10.70 target, and price has just melted straight through it. However, the USO is about to test major downside support. You can see that there is a rising trendline support level (blue dashes) that is produced from two major lows in the oil market. The first low is the absolute low from early 2016, followed by another major low in mid 2017, and now we are just about to test this rising trendline for a third time today. Since the market is extremely oversold, there is a decent possibility that we could see a bounce, or at least a pause on that level. However, if price smashes straight through it, we could be in for more severe selling.
Just below the rising blue dashed trendline, is a price level that is generated from the pivot low of 2017, at 8.65. So, if the blue trendline is lost, 8.65 would be the next stop. However, if the blue trendline is held, we will probably get a bounce back up to 10.70, to test the former support as new resistance.
On the MACD, you can see that the recent low in momentum corresponded exactly with the low printed when the bear market bottomed out in 2016. Momentum has since made a brief bounce, but is poised to cross over again to the downside. Regardless, price is closing in on the rising blue dashed trendline support. So, we will have to watch how the market reacts to it, to know what will happen going forward. Also for the record, a breakout above the 10.70 level would put a test of the 50 EMA (in orange) on the radar.
Happy Holidays Everyone!

USO LongOil has taken one of the worst beatings in a while, definitely signs of a reversal forming here and therefor I am long via calls, looking for a move towards the yellow box as there is strong resistance there. Break above there would lead to a good couple weeks of uptrend, for now just an oversold bounce plus good news at the moment. A move below the top of the yellow box on the bottom would be a failed breakout and would be my stop area. Good luck happy Holidays.
Oil Analysis On Fire! (USO)Hi friends! Welcome to this quick update analysis on the US oil market, via the USO ETF! Let's get it! Looking at the daily USO chart, you can see that price has plummeted, after I warned about the bearish engulfing candle yesterday. If you recall from my post two days ago, I said "I'm particularly interested in a rally up to the "Overhead Resistance" level at $13. If price rallies up to that, and then reverses away from it, I will short USO with a stop order just above $13.30." That turned out to be a perfect play, as USO rallied all the way up to $12.97, and then plummeted to $11.62, within two sessions. Interestingly, you can see that today's candle has stopped right next to the price target of the head and shoulders pattern on my chart (vertical dashed blue trendline.) So, the head and shoulders breakdown has been fulfilled, and it's time to take some profits off of the table. With that said, the sell volume today was enormous, and sell-side momentum is like a freight train from hell. The 61.8% retrace lies just below, at $11.65. If that level is violated, price could fall all the way down to $10.70.

Oil Crashes Into Major Support $USOOil is crashing today. It has been crashing since the beginning of October 2018. The Unites States Oil Fd LP (USO) topped out at $16.25 at the start of October but now trades below $12.00. This is an over 25% collapse in a month. Today looks to be capitulation with panic setting in. This means it is likely putting in a bottom for a bounce. The technical chart confirms this, showing major support at $11.85 and $11.70. I expect a major bounce back to $13.00 on the $USO.
Oil Moved Perfectly With Yesterday's Analysis. (USO)Hi friends! Welcome to this update analysis on the US oil market, via the USO ETF! Looking at the chart, you can see that the USO did exactly what we were looking for after yesterday's analysis. If you recall, I said "I'm particularly interested in a rally up to the 'Overhead Resistance' level at $13. If price rallies up to that, and then reverses away from it, I will short USO with a stop order just above $13.30." Today, USO rallied as expected, up to $12.97. That was close enough to $13, as it immediately turned lower, printing a nasty bearish engulfing candle, and closing near the lows of the day. Interestingly, you can also see that the low of the day was right on the 50% retrace, which I warned about yesterday, saying that there was "some decent support around the 50% retrace." From here, we want to see a follow-through breakdown during the next few sessions. It would be particularly bearish for the USO to close below the 50% retrace. From there, the USO could fall to $12.08, and then the $11.65 handle.
The MACD is oversold, but that doesn't mean that it wont remain in oversold territory. The volume on today's decline was healthy and red, highlighting the relentless strength of the bears.
