USOIL CHART UPDATEHey Traders,
We posted this idea yesterday with our first TARGET now complete. Our level was respected perfectly.
At the end of last week's Friday close, WTI had settled after a three week continuous plunge that had hit a low that was last reached in late 2021. The crash was caused by anxiety over the US economy. Speculators and investors had rolled out of their positions and this dried up liquidity leaving the market mainly in the hands of algorithms and momentum traders, exacerbating volatility.
We have seen the effects of liquidity drying up in this market before and how it creates extreme price swings. Last year was a case in point where we had erratic intra-day price moves that were extremely lucrative for the professionals who know how to trade in that jungle but that chopped up the rest especially retail traders.
In the current setup, if oil breaks and closes below $63 it will cause a cascade in other markets. We at BluetonaFX are still long-term bullish on oil as the speculators and high liquidity will return. It's a good idea to trade crude in any case if you are also trading other commodities such as gold given that when the oil market collapses, it can pull other commodities lower due to margin calls across the class.
