Very very important Channel in Oil_ pay close attention to it. I suppose that Oil has returned to an Huge Ascending Channel (look my longterm view). However, it is now situated in a Descending Channel and while it is inside of it - the decline view should be in a priority. If Oil rise till the top of this channel - prior attention to it - because there is strategic question could be solving - if Oil rise or fall. Remember about risk management. You can use green trendline as a stop line - if price dive below of it - very bearish sign. I suppose we really could see 35-38 level in Oil as a middle of the bottom part of this channel or 30- as a bottom of the channel. Be careful! Good luck everyone! My longterm view:

Crude spikes... how now, brown cow?And so, Crude spiked, and well above 100 as expected . This defying feat was not quite aligned to the weekly technical indicators, I must say. Nonetheless, the weekly candle itself had bullish lower tails and ended the week near the top. So, appears to continue spiking... perhaps above USD120, at least. The daily chart is rather interesting to me... on Mon, it was resting on a support and did look like it was going to continue the slide, having broken the 55EMA. Then the next three days totally about turned and started spiking. In doing so, it broke out of a trendline (or triangle), and the projections for the upside target is about USD140, at the end of April, or as we turn into May. (green arrow trajectories) Technicals for the daily chart are now turning upwards and bullish in support as well. Technicals aside, this spike and continued bullish momentum correlates to a somewhat expected jolt in global geopolitical tensions that would affect energy supply, and hence prices... especially over the Easter weekend, or just after.

This is my plan for Crude Oil.Crude Oil is one of my favorite assets to trade . My trading strategy on the commodity is about waiting for the price to reach key levels, then waiting for clear corrections in those areas, and finally developing setups on the breakouts of those structures towards the next relevant support/resistance level. The timeframes I use on Crude Oil most of the time are Weekly, Daily, and 4hs. What is my view from the current levels? After a huge bullish movement, caused mainly by the Russia-Ukraine crisis. We have observed a consolidation in the current zone for the last 40 days. From here, it's clear to me to define the long-term bullish target(140.00) and the long-term bearish target (80.00). At the moment, I'm not interested in developing setups on the bearish side. However, I see a trading opportunity on the bullish side that I will definitely take if all the conditions go as expected. You can see my setup in the following picture: The strategy here is to wait for a breakout, wait for a retest, and trade the retest on a new local high. Those retests I'm speaking about tend to take between 4 to 10 days. It's really important that you can define the setups you are interested in in advance, so you can study all the different variations or situations you may go through and get ready for them. This will improve your trading results. Also when you define the scenarios you want to trade, you are indirectly saying that you will avoid trading in all the other places. Thanks for reading! I will keep updating this idea. Feel free to share your view in the comments.

Brent Falls Below $100, Erasing Ukraine War GainsCrude prices have erased most gains since the start of the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Lockdowns in China weigh on demand expectations. China’s financial hub Shanghai reported a record more than 25,000 new infections during the weekend. POSSIBLE OIL TRADING STRATEGY: IF YOU ARE BIG RISK TAKER ON DAILY CHART :TAKE THE TREND! DONCHIAN 20,25and30 has been broken:Also the important pychological level and Golden Number 100! First target for Short seller could be 94,86,74 and 64 USD. If You are Intraday Trader, Ue VWAP-Power and trade that blackgold only below. Trail your top or close each position before the Day-Close. But always remember: Long Termwe will see again 200-250USD in Oil, but as Traders important i right now and not what will be happened in 2,6or 12 Months. Live today to trade better tommorrow. Your capital is the blood of your trading business. Oil prices dipped by more than 4% early on Monday, with Brent falling below $100 a barrel, as COVID-related lockdowns in China weighed on demand expectations, while the coordinated massive release from oil reserves eased fears of supply shortages. As of 8:05 a.m. ET on Monday, WTI Crude was down by 4.80% at $93.59, and Brent Crude was trading down by 4.50% at $98.18. Short selling is un-American. It is done by rogues, thieves, and especially pessimists, who are, of course, the worst of the lot. It is a terrible, terrible thing and must be stopped in our lifetime. We should halt it, restrict it, or at the very least revile those who make it their vocation. The above sentiments are sadly not imaginary or rare. Rather, they genuinely reflect much of the investing public’s view of short selling. In fact, attacks have included proposals to make short selling harder (the existing “uptick rule” already makes it hard), or to make it impossible by banning it outright (presumably along with pessimism itself, and perhaps the infield fly rule). These criticisms and draconian proposals all increase in volume and seriousness when the stock market goes through a tough time. At such times many claim short sellers are the cause of the market’s decline. Finally, at the low point for stock prices, many members of Congress invariably reexamine whether shorting should be allowed, or more simply, consider just legislating that the Dow go up 50 points a day. Of course, the media does not help. A rising stock market is a good thing for ratings and circulation. This country is, of course, biased toward rooting for stocks to go up, and people watch and read more about this stuff when it is fun (i.e., going up). Thus, short sellers, with their gloomy attitude, are not generally media friendly. In fact, even some pro-free enterprise media outlets sometimes throw away their laissez faire stance when it comes to short selling, particularly “in times of crisis” (defined as an overvalued market getting a bit less overvalued). Apparently, they have some confusion regarding the difference between supporting a free capital market versus supporting an expensive one. Well, to sum up the theme of this foreword, opponents of short selling are not merely wrong. They are incredibly wrong, both factually and morally. Short sellers are among the heroes of capitalism and we owe them our thanks not our opprobrium. The opponents of short selling are either exceptionally economically challenged, or run to a natural tendency to ban anything they do not like. There’s a word for the political system favored by people like that and it is not democracy (but does rhyme with Motalitarianism). Oil prices have now erased most of their gains since the start of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, after a month and a half of extremely volatile trading in which market participants have trimmed their positions in the crude oil futures. Oil hasn’t been this low since the middle of March. Early on Monday, the continued lockdowns in China—which is fighting its worst outbreak in two years with its zero-COVID policy—were still a source of concern for the oil market, which is apprehensive of the outlook on demand in the world’s biggest crude oil importer. China’s financial hub Shanghai reported a record more than 25,000 new infections during the weekend. One of China’s wealthiest cities, with 26 million residents, has been under lockdown for more than a week under the Chinese “zero-COVID” policy, which could weigh on fuel demand. Authorities started easing some restrictions on Monday, as residents became increasingly frustrated with the policy. “Weaker domestic demand suggests we should see refiners cutting operating rates, whilst there is also the potential that we see a pick-up in refined product exports from China in the short term,” ING strategists Warren Patterson and Wenyu Yao said on Monday. Moreover, the weakening prompt time spreads in the crude oil futures structure suggest that the physical market is not as tight as what was perceived a few weeks ago. “There are also indications that the market is looking less tight. The physical market has seen further weakness recently, whilst the prompt ICE Brent time spread has come under significant pressure in recent weeks,” ING’s strategists added. Citi: Fears Of Oil Supply Shortage Are Exaggerated, But… Citi: Russian supply loss could be lower than feared. Citi's Ed Morse: COVID lockdowns in China help lower demand. The world will have more than enough oil in coming months according to Citigroup analysts. The world will have more than enough oil because the Russian supply loss could be lower than feared. But it will also have enough oil simply because demand growth could slow down with higher prices and COVID lockdowns in China, analysts at Citigroup say. “Even as Russian production slides and OPEC+ actually reduces total flows to markets, a slowdown in global growth is reducing oil demand growth, and the IEA release of 220mln barrels of oil between now and October point to market weakness and inventory builds ahead,” Citi analyst Edward Morse said in a note carried by Proactive Investors. Moreover, Citi believes that the fears of a loss of up to 3 million barrels per day (bpd) of Russian oil supply are exaggerated. “Of 1.9-m b/d of European seaborne exports of crude oil, around 900-k b/d is being pushed to other markets such as India or will likely stay in some European markets with limited access to non-Russian oil,” Citi’s analysts wrote. Therefore, the world will have more than enough oil in coming months, the analysts noted. “Without a deeper Russian cut, which is possible, the numbers add up to much more than enough oil,” according to Citi. Citi’s view is contrary to other analysts and investment banks which see severe constraints in oil supply. Commodities have room to soar by another 40 percent on top of the gains in recent months, as investors could pour more money into raw materials as a hedge against the highest inflation in 40 years, JPMorgan Chase & Co says. There is “absolutely” a supply problem in the oil sector, Jeff Currie, global head of commodities at Goldman Sachs, told Bloomberg on Wednesday. There are broad-based supply constraints in oil producers, particularly non-core OPEC, Currie said. Every producer except for Saudi Arabia and the UAE is producing less today than they were in 2020, he added. Throw in the Russian shock, and the supply constraints are the most severe in decades, since the 1970s, according to Currie. The record release of U.S. Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) “is still insufficient to be able to deal with the scale of the problem,” he noted. FinalThoughts:THE TREND IS YOUR FRIEND! AND ALWAYS USE STOPS!ALWAYS!

☑️USDCAD: medium-term long➡️ At the moment, in the medium term, the USDCAD currency pair is considered long. Globally, the price is in the range of 1.20000 - 1.45000 and has already rebounded from its lower border. Locally (on the chart) the price is clearly in the balance of 1.24697 - 1.25929 and the sellers are getting ready for another drop to the level of 1.24697 today. After that, the expected medium-term long will become a reality. Considering the fundamental aspect, the market is increasingly betting that the Bank of Canada ( BoC ) will raise its key rate by 50 bp . at the next meeting. Expectations of a rate hike were likely caused by the publication on Monday of a survey of business prospects of the Bank of Canada. Also today, data on the labor market is expected to be released, which will also clarify fundamentally. ➖➖➖➖➖➖➖ 👍 Thanks for your comments and likes 👍 👇🔥 LINKS TO PREVIOUS IDEAS AND FORECASTS 🔥👇

Brent Crude May Form a Big Bullish TriangleA few days ago, America announced the uncapping of strategic oil reserves, which are now at the lowest level in the last 20 years - about 570 million barrels. Regular sales of 1 million barrels per day of oil will lead to their reduction by another third. But today oil quotes are getting more expensive again, as the sale of oil from the US strategic reserve will not compensate for the Russian oil that has fallen out if the calls of French President Emmanuel Macron are heard and EU countries impose an embargo on imports from Russia. These new sanctions should target coal and oil, Macron said. Some European governments insist on imposing additional sanctions against Russia. I will not claim that Europe is hearing Ukraine to provocations and has already chosen Russia in advance as the culprit. The problem is that governments do not want to admit to themselves that the rejection of Russia's hydrocarbons is a big damage to the EU. Russian gas accounts for about 40% of natural gas imports to the EU, and oil accounts for about 25%, Sky News writes. The Germans have revised their views on "green energy" (abandoning nuclear power plants, switching to wind power). According to many economists, the ban on Russian energy supplies will lead to a reduction in German GDP by more than 5%. This decline will be the second largest since the Second World War. The German Economic Institute stated that the imposition of an embargo on oil and gas would lead to incalculable risks. In my opinion, the chances of introducing new sanctions are quite high, which means that oil prices will not only not fall, but may also continue to grow in the medium term. I assume the formation of a large bullish triangle on the daily chart with the stability of the growing trend, which started from the beginning of December 2021. A breakthrough for the maximum on March 24 will be an unambiguous signal for further price growth. Although the first signal to increase will be received if the triangle resistance line is overcome, which falls in the area of $ 117-118 per barrel. PS Does America really want to suppress the rise in gasoline prices? or is she confused about her plans?
