Crude Oil Is Close to Setting New HighsCrude prices continue their steady rise as the Brent crude benchmark is trading close to $77.40 per barrel. The July high is at $77.84 per barrel, well within arm’s reach. The rise in crude prices continues for the fourth consecutive day as investors digest the recent damages to the U.S. oil industry caused by two recent hurricanes.
The damages were confirmed by the Energy Information Administration (EIA) data that showed a decline of crude reserves to 414 million barrels, a record low since October 2018. This week EIA recorded a drop of oil reserves by 3.5 million barrels or 0.8%, and this is the seventh week of declines in the row.
As I said before, Brent crude oil has a potential to rise to $82 per barrel if we consider the height of the downward channel to be the price that has been broken through recently. A decline of prices to $73.26 per barrel was just a test of the new support level that was formerly a resistance level.
So, we may say that further hikes in prices is quite possible even if prices are at record highs for several months. However, we may have a short-term correction to the area of $76.50-76.60 per barrel, where the support level of the upward trend from September 21 is located.
Anyway, any correction now is a good chance to open buy positions. Moreover, if we look at the monthly timeframe we may find a “triple tweezers” candlestick pattern at $65-67 per barrel. Such a pattern indicates a high possibility for the bullish trend to continue. Oil may surge to $90 a barrel if the approaching winter in the northern hemisphere proves colder than normal, said Jeff Currie, global head of commodities research at Goldman Sachs Group Inc. Tightening gas supplies in Europe will elevate demand for oil as an alternative at a time when global crude output is constrained, Currie said during a Bloomberg Television interview on Wednesday. Post-hurricane disruptions in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico were among the worldwide factors he cited.
Backer Hughes oil rigs count report may affect crude prices later on Friday after the company has reported active rigs at 512 including oil rigs at 411 units as of September 17.

UKOil Dip Looks Compelling on HourlyFurther to yesterday's article, , UKOil has pulled back on the hourly. The left daily chart continues to show UKOil in the bullish area (upper blue - upper red). The hourly stochastic on the right has already crossed bullishly. If the EMAs cross to the upside that would be considered a bullish development. Assuming this, if the stochastic can move to 80 and hold that level a bullish momentum push may be back on.

Brent Crude Oil 1-day classic patternsQ: What has the highest probability of occurring?
Since February 2021 price has been stabilising on $65 per barrel.
There is a combination of 2 classic patterns forming at 65.00 support.
The inverse head & shoulders, which is in the process of forming the right shoulder, is currently invalid.
This pattern projects 85.25 as the target.
The double bottom, having recently tested and rejected 65.00, would need to breakout from 76.50 to be validated.
This pattern projects 52.00 as the target.
Objectively looking at 65.00 support the two high volume bars appear to be putting the weight in favour of the formation of the double bottom following the ~15% correction.
Since the double bottom is not validated so the current position is neutral with a bias in favour of the uptrend continuing.
It is worth paying attention to the high of the left shoulder at ~72.00 and how the bulls and bears interact as validation of the double bottom is required at 76.50
Ascending correction and descending returnOil is in the daily trend of correction
In general, the $ 2 climb today is considered a correction, and the target for oil prices this week is $ 64.

BCOUSD COFIRMED LOWER HIGHS, UPTRENDLINE BREAK, BEARS ON THE RUNBrent crude has recently made four lower highs on the daily timeframe following the ongoing spark between the US admin and OPEC
Technically I am anticipating price to hit lower lows especially since bears have been able to break the previous major lows around 68.106 in addition to previous break of the trendline to the lower side earlier this week and a break below a double top structure.
Find conservative sells between 68.30 and 68.60 with major targets around the 61.00.

Geopolitics:
If prices of Oil and Natural Gas are TOO high, Russia is becoming TOO dangerous (in the eyes of Americans, not in my eyes. In my eyes Russia and America should be best friends and fix this planet💌☮️🕊️🌎).
-Russia is the world's largest producer of crude oil (including lease condensate) and the second-largest producer of dry natural gas. Russia also produces significant amounts of coal.
- In early June, when Brent climbed above $70 per barrel, Russian Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak said the oil price reflected the balance of supply and demand and was “good enough” for Russia.
Tell me what you think.

Breaking: The OPEC report is issuedOPEC monthly report was issued a few minutes ago, and the report was not positive for OPEC+ and the oil-producing countries within the group, led by Saudi Arabia. OPEC kept its forecast for oil demand in 2021 unchanged at an increase of 6 million barrels per day, bringing the average to 96.6 million barrels per day, and also kept its forecast for the growth of oil demands in 2022 by 3.3 million barrels per day, bringing the average production to 99.86 million barrels per day.
While OPEC+ raised its expectations for an increase in the production of oil-producing countries outside the group by 840 thousand barrels per day, to reach an increase of 2.9 million barrels per day, with a total average of 66.9 million barrels per day in 2022.
It also raised its forecast for the production growth of oil-producing countries outside the group in 2021 by 270,000 barrels per day to reach 1.1 million barrels per day, with a total average of 64 million barrels per day.
How far down Crude Oil will go?Crude oil pulled back sharply from 75.30 resistance level. Now bouncing from trend line drawn from March to May lows. Until it reclaims 69.75 and stays above, downward pressure continues. If 65.30 fails to hold, next support at 64 and at last 61.50. Close below 61.50 more downside possible. Other levels as marked.
Brent: Rolling Down the Streets 🛢️🛢️The British oil is expected to further decline in its price but to turn around before hitting the mark of $64.56. After that, we are in a perfect position to not only enter the market on the long side, but also to look forward to a very long-lasting bullish run! In total, we expect the price to at least reach areas of $95 in the long run.
Be optimistic!
$OIL Brent crude approaching massive resistanceWhat a recovery in the price of Brent Crude after all the madness we witnessed after the Pandemic last year! We are currently approaching the downtrend line (DT) that has been in place since the peak in 2008. This zone ($77-$80) as indicated by the red box has also been an area of horizontal resistance/support in prior years. We have the 61.8 fib retracement which connects at a similar level, so putting this all together suggests Brent crude is approaching an area where you are likely to find some resistance and short term correction in price.
Brent to reach $85?I've been bullish on FX_IDC:USDBRO ever since it traded above its 200EMA. Bought few contracts, rode the trend from $43 to $69.
Last week Brent closed above $71, looking back, this was/is an area of value. Now that the price is above $71, I'm bullish once again, targeting the $85 region, with a stop below the 50EMA.
