Crude Oil Prices Fall Amid Economic and Geopolitical ShiftsSince the beginning of October, crude oil prices have been on a downward trend, dropping from $77 to $70 in less than three months. This decline can be attributed to several geopolitical and economic factors. During this period, global economic growth showed signs of slowing, raising concerns about future oil demand. Additionally, geopolitical tensions in major oil-producing regions eased, leading to a more stable supply outlook. These combined factors have exerted downward pressure on crude oil prices.

2024-12-11 - priceactiontds - daily update - wti crude oilGood Evening and I hope you are well. tl;dr wti crude oil futures - Neutral. Having a hard time being bullish inside trading ranges and unexpected moves higher. Volume is utter trash and yet market broke above last weeks high and the bear trend line. Bulls want 71 next but I would not be surprised if we go down to 68 or even 67 again. comment: Daily chart shows the trading range which is still contracting but the very small break above last weeks high is a start for the bulls. Buying at previous resistance inside a trading range is always a bad trade. I’d rather wait if bulls come around big time on a pullback and see if it has strong momentum and can break above 70.5. current market cycle: trading range key levels: 67 - 71 bull case: Bulls made a small higher high and now want 71 next. The rally is not particularly strong and the volume is also atrocious. I don’t have many arguments for the bulls here. Invalidation is below 66.27 bear case: Bulls have not printed more than 2 consecutive bull bars for almost 2 months now. Bears see that, previous resistance 70.5 from last week and still a bear trend line close enough. They have much more reasons to sell this, than bulls have for buying it. Invalidation is above 70.6. short term: Neutral. I wait for one side to gain momentum again but my bar for the bulls is higher than for the bears. I don’t have an opinion on where this goes next. For me it’s 50/50 if we go down to at least 69 or higher to 71. medium-long term - Update from 2024-11-10 : Unless an event comes up, this will very likely close around 70 for the year. current swing trade : Nope trade of the day: Tough. Long was obviously right but there were so many trend lines that could have been resistance, it was much more reasonable to not take the longs than to hope for a breakout above multiple trend lines.

#202449 - priceactiontds - weekly update - wti crude oil futuresGood Evening and I hope you are well. tl;dr wti crude oil futures: Neutral af. Two weekly bear bars closing on their lows the past two weeks. Before that we had 12 weeks of most alternating bull/bear weeks. Can you get bearish now for a stronger leg down? I highly doubt it. Market has not had a weekly close below 65.6 for exactly a year. 65.6 is the November low and I expect it to hold. So looking for longs is probably the way to go but bulls only produced one single bull bar in the past 2 weeks. Need more buying pressure before looking for higher targets. I won’t touch it for now. Quote from last week: comment: The most likely outcome was a continuation of the trading range and that’s what we got. Bears are on their way to test 67 again and the market now have formed a head & shoulders pattern like in August where we broke down to make new lows. Most h&s patterns fail and are just continuation patterns. We will likely get the answer to that next week. Anything between 68 and 70 is a dead zone and I will only be interested in longs around 67, if bulls come around again. Shorts do not make sense below 70. comment : Bulls are not doing enough but bears are also barely making new lows. Market is mostly two sided and stuck inside an 8$ range for 2 months. Don’t over analyze it. current market cycle: trading range key levels: 65 - 73 bull case: I won’t make up stuff here. Market has no direction for years now and the range is contracting. Bulls want to stay above 66 and test the upper bear trend line around 70 again. That’s about it. Invalidation is below 66. bear case: Bears are in control but it’s clearly a very weak trending trading range. We are inside nested triangles on higher time frames and selling below 67 has not been profitable for more than an intraday scalp since mid 2023. It hasn’t been profitable to get bearish below 67 for that long, why would you now. Invalidation is above 71.6. outlook last week: short term: Neutral 68 - 70 and I doubt we make lower lows below 66. Even if bears push below, downside is likely limited. → Last Sunday we traded 68 and now we are at 67.2. Good outlook but trading ranges are not rocket science. short term: Neutral 68 - 70 and I doubt we make lower lows below 66. Even if bears push below, downside is likely limited. Can’t change much of last weeks short term outlook, since it’s still valid. Bears have targets below 66 but until they get a daily close below it, we continue sideways. medium-long term - Update from 2024-11-10: Unless an event comes up, this will very likely close around 70 for the year. current swing trade: None chart update: Nothing worth mentioning. Again.

CRUDE OIL Weekly Forecast: Bearish! Wait for SHORTS!Price has traded through the low @67.71, indicating a shift in the market from bullish to bearish bias. There is an untapped imbalance above @67.87, an Internal Liquidity target. As we know. price seeks liquidity from External liquidity (lows and highs) to Internal Liquidity (FVGs). So the idea here is to wait for the pullback into the -FVG/imbalance and look for valod short setups, targeting the lows @66.98 and 66.50. Enjoy! May profits be upon you.

Is a Big Move Coming in Crude Oil?Crude oil has been limping for most of this year, and now some traders may see risk of a bigger drop. The first pattern on today’s chart is the relentless series of lower highs since September 2023. The trend lines along these peaks have dropped at steeper angles, which potentially reflects increased selling pressure. The second pattern is the series of slightly higher lows since September 2024. That may be viewed as a bearish flag. Third, consider the 50-, 100- and 200-day simple moving averages (SMAs). They swung earlier in the year, with the faster above the slower at times but that changed 2-3 months ago. They’re now in a clearer sequence, with the faster SMAs below the slower SMAs. All three are also falling. That could also indicate a longer-term downtrend has developed. Next is the support zone around 64.50 to 67.75. Prices bounced quickly from this range between March and June of 2023, but are now spending more time in the same area. That could suggest longer-term support is fading. Speaking of longer-term support, the second chart uses 2-week candles to compare the current environment with late 2014. Both saw long periods of sideways movement with lower highs. The earlier moment saw an accelerated downtrend once the weekly support level broke. Could a similar move be coming soon?

Oil December 4th I wanted to look at oil because generally the pattern looks contracted to me. when I'm not clear on things I not only look at the daily chart but I'll look at some bigger time frames and when I saw the weekly chart it became apparent to me that I could actually trade this market today and certainly yesterday. There are times when you really have to go one time frame higher if you want clarity even though most of the time you'll probably look for a lower time frames for clarity but that doesn't apply when you're trying to find a trade on this current market in my opinion. but go ahead and look at it I'm not sure if it's going to break out to the higher time frame or not but it did give you a couple $1000 Target if we traded inside the range box.

2024-12-03 - priceactiontds - daily update - wti crude oilGood Evening and I hope you are well. tl;dr wti crude oil futures - Neutral. Bulls did what they had to, to prevent a flush down to 66. Market traded above 70 and we made a higher low. Bulls would need to print 71.5 for a higher high and I can’t see that happening as of now. Chop between 68 and 70 is most likely here. comment : Midpoint of this triangle is around 69.3 and this will be a magnet until we either make higher highs or lower lows. It’s a trading range, don’t over analyze it. current market cycle : trading range (big triangle on the daily chart) key levels: 66 - 70 bull case: Bulls had a decent day and turned the market completely neutral again. Only above 71.5 they are favored for higher prices. For tomorrow I expect some more sideways price action between 69 and 70.5. Invalidation is below 66.27 bear case : Bears need to keep it below 71.5 or we are making higher highs again. They tried to close below 68 for 4 days and today we saw bears giving up on it. Bears are still favored to keep it inside the triangle, so either play the range or don’t trade at all. Betting on a huge breakout is not a decent strategy after going sideways for so long. Invalidation is above 71.5. short term: Neutral inside the triangle. Area round 70.5 should be huge resistance. medium-long term - Update from 2024-11-10 : Unless an event comes up, this will very likely close around 70 for the year. current swing trade: Nope trade of the day: Could have longed anywhere and made money. 1h 20ema is strong support until broken.

Could oil prices fall to $60?Could oil prices fall to $60? This week, oil markets remained stable with WTI crude futures closing at $68.5 per barrel. Investors were alert to positive economic data from China and the upcoming OPEC+ meeting. Chinese manufacturing activity is reported to have picked up for the second consecutive month, at a faster pace than in the past five months, indicating a recovery in the world's largest oil importer. At the same time, Saudi Arabia announced a reduction in crude oil prices for Asian buyers starting in January, bringing them to their lowest level in four years. The OPEC+ meeting that was originally scheduled for this week has been postponed, and further discussions are expected to be required before a decision on increased production is made. Geopolitical tensions in the Middle East are also impacting the oil market. Although there has been a ceasefire agreement, Israel has resumed attacks on Lebanon, and Iran is supporting the Syrian government after rebels took control of Aleppo, the country's largest city. In addition, there is concern that Saudi Arabia may increase production if other countries do not do the same to keep prices stable. The OPEC issue is again at the center of discussions, with some countries trying to gain an advantage by producing more oil than agreed upon. During a telematic meeting, OPEC representatives blamed Iraq for exceeding its daily production limit of 400,000 barrels in August according to data provided by S&P Global Ratings, and Kazakhstan, which expects to increase production due to the return of the Tengiz oil field to 720,000 barrels per day. “There is no point in adding new stocks if there is no demand for them in the market,” one of the representatives said during the call. “It is important that all states respect the agreements set by OPEC+ and keep quiet.” In recent months, oil prices have fallen by 9 percent across all major benchmarks. Despite OPEC+'s efforts to stabilize oil markets, prices continue to fall. Although the group has proposed several extensions of production cuts, this has not prevented prices from falling further. According to IEA data, OPEC's market share has declined to 48 percent this year, down from 50 percent in 2023 and 51 percent in 2022. Competition is expected to intensify next year, with projected increases in production in the United States, Guyana and Brazil, which could lead to an increase of more than 1 million barrels per day in global supply. Although Brazil joined OPEC+ this year, they have stated that they will not participate in production cuts to maintain their market share. According to my forecast, we will see oil prices fall to new lows of around $60 in the coming quarters, with a possibility in 2025 of seeing prices even lower than $50 per barrel if a dispute within OPEC occurs. The crude oil futures curve still shows a contango trend, which means it may be advantageous to consider instruments such as ETFs for long-term investing. However, it is advisable to avoid direct investment in the oil stock sector at present, as the value of the dollar is strong and prices of companies in the sector are very high.
