CRUDE to bounce a bit, if at all, else dive hardBased on Crude's weekly chart, it clearly lost the bullish plot (posted 1st May, see linked post). As of the current Crude futures price action, a few preliminary observations can be recorded... 1. A lower low is recorded, and this aligns with the weekly technical outlook of a more bearish close to the weeks ahead; 2. Yesterday closing at 68.52 broke down all prior marked supports, except for the TDST at 66.12. Note that a close below and 3 days of closing below 66.12 changes Crude into a bearish primary trend. So, expect a lot of dancing about (or bounces off) this area, until that happens. 3. Today closing is important... IF closing at current levels, then a bounce to 74-76 can be expected, due to the long shadow/tail (green ellipse). Otherwise, a breakdown below the TDST support level turns all bearish. 4. Technically, it appears to favour further downside once market hours open. MACD and VolDiv on the daily are aligned to weekly indication of more downside momentum, having already crossed into bear territory. Watch the USD... it has a lot to do with the magnitude, although other fundamentals will affect Crude directly. Mindful that tomorrow is the Non-farm Payrolls.

WTI OIL Target hit. Now sell the rebound.WTI Oil (USOIL) hit our 72.50 target we set last week (see chart below) and maintains the tight trade within this short-term Channel Down pattern: At the moment today's aggressive bearish leg can very well make a Lower Low of the Channel Down at 71.10 and then rebound, with the 4H RSI Rectangle giving a valid level on its bottom to be prepared for. Until the price closes above the 4H MA50 (blue trend-line), we will look to sell again near the top of the Channel Down and target the bottom at 68.10, near the 1W MA200 (yellow trend-line). ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Please LIKE 👍, FOLLOW ✅, SHARE 🙌 and COMMENT ✍ if you enjoy this idea!

Crude Oil Futures: Open Interest and Technical AnalysisPreliminary data from CME Group indicates that open interest in crude oil futures markets increased for the fourth consecutive session on Monday, registering a gain of approximately 4.3K contracts. Conversely, trading volume decreased for the third consecutive session, declining by roughly 260.5K contracts. Technical analysis indicates that the crude oil price has retraced to the 50% Fibonacci level in combination with the previous resistance area, suggesting the possibility of another bearish leg (AB=CD pattern) with a target of approximately HKEX:62 or lower. Alternatively, the next significant resistance level for the crude oil price could be around $80.00. Given the rising open interest, the daily uptick in price is likely to continue the recovery in the near term. The key target to watch for is the $80.00 per barrel mark.

USOIL 2/MAY/2023It is anticipated that the Federal Reserve, which is responsible for managing the US's monetary policy, will raise interest rates again. This could potentially cause the US economy to slow down and enter a recession later this year. In recent weeks, concerns about a banking crisis have affected the oil market. The US government took over First Republic Bank, and JPMorgan purchased most of its assets, causing alarm as three other US banks have previously collapsed: Signature Bank, Silvergate Bank, and Silicon Valley Bank. If more banks encounter difficulties, it may lead to a banking crisis that could cause a recession and a decrease in oil demand. Additionally, voluntary production cuts of about 1.16 million barrels per day by OPEC+ countries, including Russia, will take effect in May, impacting oil prices. On a positive note, the US's manufacturing industry is improving, and with rising demand and employment, this has slightly boosted oil prices.

WTI CRUDE OIL: Aggressive sellingWTI Crude Oil is on a strong selloff that was accurately anticipated by our firm on the 1D MA200 rejection, making a LH on the long term Channel Down and providing us with the most optimal sell entry. The 4H technicals are oversold but the 1D remains on standard bearish price action (RSI = 42.644, MACD = 0.240, ADX = 42.786) and we don't expect this selling to take a pause before the 1D RSI tests the S1 (39.50). Our short term target has always been 74.00 and after a short lived rebound we expect 72.00. Unless 1D closes a candle above the 1D MA50, in which case a bigger rebound is possible to 80.00 before an even deeper fall to 66.00.
