USOil | New perspective for the week | Follow-up detail

Updated
This is a follow-up video to my previous analysis where we made over 1,000 pips in profit (see link below for reference purposes). Crude oil prices witnessed significant gains to close last week's trading session with approximately 8% growth as Moscow said it may cut oil production to offset price caps on Russian crude imposed by the G7 nations and the European Union. In the coming week, the chances of subdued trading activities are very likely and this might not be unconnected to the hangover of the holidays thereby reducing the liquidity in the market. In this video, we took a look at the chart from a technical standpoint where the $80 level will be serving as a major determinant of price movement for the new week.

A bullish gap is identified as price action remains above the $80.00 level. So, I have identified a $0.50 channel where price action appears to be trapped within the $80.00 and $80.50 zone since the beginning of the week. At this juncture, we shall remain patient and look out for a signal at either a breakout or breakdown of the channel.

Good morning

A new structure that supports a potential bullish momentum is identified on the 1H timeframe as buying pressure is identified around the $79.50 level since the beginning of the week. Now, we have a demand zone around $79.50 as the price takes out the sell position at break even. So, if price action does not break down the demand zone, we shall be looking forward to buying pressure above $80.00 to buy the USOil.

Price action finally breaks down the bullish trendline to send a possible bearish signal across the market. At this juncture, the $79.50 level shall be our guide for trading activities today and we continue to look out for selling opportunities as long as price action remains below the $79.50 level. However, if price action remains above the $79.50 level with buy pressure identified on the lower time frame, we get ready for buy opportunities... Update coming up soon.

Good morning

Secure the current buy positions as price action breaks out of the $78.65 level. So, we now have this level and the bullish trendline to guide our trading activities for today. We continue to hold our buy positions if the price remains above these structures but a breakdown/retest of the trendline will incite a bearish momentum.
