Monday and Tuesday it tried to move higher but was kept under the 195SMA. Wednesday tried to move higher but again failed and now the 75SMA could push it towards 55.67 level. If 55.67 level is breached Oil may dip to 55.
Let's wait & see.

US Oil: week 9 kick offHi Guys,
...last Friday US Oil hit 58 level again after Trump's tweet but also dropped again to find support higher than previous one at 55.
Price may be entering an horizontal complex correction period between those bounderies (H58-L55) made of a combinations of double and triple threes.
Strategy: Wait & See if the SMA pushes for a potential BC leg of a Zig-Zag attacking 55. An attack to 58 may be possible too if it crosses the SMA but it will depends on momentum and other external factors (i.e. USD/JPY, DXY, economic datas release, news).
Thank you for your support and for sharing your ideas.
Enjoy:)

LOONIE Looking To Hit 1.29000 Level. OIL The Main Driver!Oil is the main driver behind the CAD pairs and with the OIL market slowly recovering aided by the sanctions on Venezuela's OIL exports by the US and the cooperation among the OPEC AND NON-OPEC Producers. Many see the OIL market recovering in the near term and to further strengthen the technical picture, there is an already completed head and shoulders pattern on the US OIL chart.
The greenback has started this year strongly but with FED pausing the rate hikes and thinking to start unwinding of their balance sheet later this year gives the USD modest strength to perform this year. However if compared to LOONIE, the greenback is not that strong based on fundamental picture for time-being.
Looking at the main chart for the USDCAD pair, the weekly timeframe has confined the price to a long term trendline. Should the weekly trendline break together with weekly 50 EMA the price will likely be heading to test the lower trendline present at around 1.29000 level!
Shall the criteria meet, i will update the trade details in a new thread. this just represents my analysis on this current pair. cheers
Oil is gonna make a run for itOil climbed, and broke through the neckline of the reverse head and shoulders pattern that has been in play for the past few months. The growth was due to supply cuts and reduced output from OPEC countries. Russia has also agreed to participate in the cutbacks. Saudia Arabia will be repairing a damaged offshore field, and this will decrease supply and increase the price of oil in the week to come. In total oil rose 4.2% the past week. Gains are being stifled by a few factors as well. US inventories are rising, the global slowdown is decreasing demand, and US output is at a record high. To counterbalance this Chinese imports of oil are rising by about 4.8% each quarter for the past three quarters.
Starting on the week of February 18th China-US trade talks will continue in Washington as the leaders of both nations will sit down to reach an agreement before March 1st. Also the US may put sanctions on Venezuelan exports and further decrease world supply.
So long as WTI stays above 54.00 we see a bullish play in motion. If and when oil breaks through the Fibonacci resistance level of 38.2% at the price of 55.63 we will see the biggest spike up. The next level of resistance is the 200-EMA. The first strong target of the bullish movement is 57.34 and the next target is 59.00.
no major movement ahead for oil at least in first half of 2019I think the supply side for oil will be abundant, considering the fact the tepid world economy will not consume as much oil as the last decade.
growth prospects of major economies looks dim except the US. Many institutes has trimmed down GDP growth rates in the last two month, citing significant headwinds for the world, like debt, trade disputes, geopolitical uncertainties and so forth.OPEC has every intention to reach a production cut deal for its members. Yet it can't control the behavior of non member states, especially the United States, which is the biggest producer in oil and gas and has become a net exporter. By cutting production, OPEC members probably will lose market share to other big players in export market.
Possible Scenarios for OILWelcome to this MONTHLY chart showing possible scenarios over the next years, after OIL has bounced once again on the level of $50 in the past months potentially taking us higher near term up to $70. Let us now depict the possible scenarios out of this market, with the conditions that would trigger any of them and some arguments supporting each.
The first thing to consider, is that after the bounce at $50 and its current positive trend, it would be very likely that the levels of $70 could be tested before the end of 2019. Given the recent US sanctions against the Venezuelan government, affecting the OIL supply coming from that country, prices might see an immediate fuel until $70 levels are tested. However, if the level of $70 is reached it might be wise to consider that this level has acted before as a resistance and act carefully then. Would see a good long trade only if this level is surpassed, where we could expect prices reaching up to $84 until 2021, where the the next possible resistance is located.
Now, given that Oil has seen the surge of Shale Oil increasing the supply in the market, and the fact that at these price levels Shale is pretty much profitable, we could see a downward bounce on the levels of $70, back to $50 by 2021. An added pressure to the downside would be a production adjustment from OPEC, as well as the world's efforts to increasingly develop renewable energy supply around the globe, which would affect the demand for oil in the long run. If we see carefully, a possible head and shoulders could be formed by the fractal formed if the price bounces back from $70, resulting in prices below the level of $50 after 2021.
Well, there they are. Two possible scenarios. Upvote if you liked it!
Is the oil uptrend here to stay? Oil has been on a tear thus far in 2019 and I expect nothing short of a full fledged rally should we break above $58. The weekly and monthly time frames look very bullish, as there's no clear supply levels to overcome. I expect oil to be one of the best performing investments of 2019. With that said, oil is considered extremely volatile and very contingent on geopolitical affairs.
A break below $50, and we could witness a drop to the $45 zone.
The two biggest fundamental factors driving price action right now is the political turmoil in Venezuela and OPEC's ongoing production cuts.
Crude: Long first, then SHORT !The slowdown in the world economy, especially the Chinese one, which is the country with the highest demand for fossil fuels, will have a negative impact on stockpiles, dropping the price considerably.
Institutional investors, and not, have started to bet downwards on both WTI and BRENT and it is very likely that this rebound is due to profit taking only. Moreover, to weigh on this scenario there is the choice of the United States to increase the extraction, compromising this sort of very unstable equilibrium that are trying to create the OPEC countries on a production reduction pact that seems to be compromised. Summing up, in the medium term we expect another descent with a target of $ 40.
In the very short term, however, the situation is different: at the technical level it has broken the dynamic resistance identified by the EMA20 daily and is aiming the next, most important, EMA200, placed about 5 dollars above the ema20.
In the very short / short period, we expect to reach the $ 60 area.
Clear Divergence formed, Strong Short Market SentimentU.S. stock futures declined with equities in Asia amid a potential escalation of tensions between Washington and Beijing, and after signs China’s economy remains under pressure. Treasury yields extended last week’s retreat and the dollar fell.
Oil in London extended its gains near $62 a barrel after OPEC and its allies agreed on production cuts and protesters forced the shutdown of Libya’s biggest crude field.
This summed up market direction till the end of this quarter. Happy trading folks. Manage your risk wisely.

OIL; The Black GoldTechnology are now rising to a greater extent. Thus energy company are now shifting to renewable energy even greater.
Usage of electrical devices is a necessity nowadays, with vehicle, public transportation are developing energy-efficient engine that drive their work.
It is believe that price will went up eventually, before thrives downward as future minds are becoming aware of pollution and ecosystem.
However, please watch price action and economic news on OPEC countries decision before we decide to ride on trades.
Trade well, risk less.

WTI LONGOPEC and allies agree to cut oil production by 1.2 million barrels per day
Major oil producers have reached a deal to cut oil production and boost the market.
The alliance will to take 1.2 million barrels per day off the market.
OPEC has agreed to exempt Iran from cutting production, Iranian Energy Minister Bijan Zangeneh said
On a technical perspective we reached a nice mirror level and we are likely to see a push back to recent highs or a creation of a higher high.
USDMXN: Topped as per the weekly timeframe...I think the Peso will regain strength over time from this juncture. The weekly Time@Mode trend signal we had here expires next week but price already seems to be trending down in the daily timeframe, and broke a previous weekly low, so I think we're safe to assume the decline started already. The G20 talks and oil related news might be behind the strength in commodities, EM currencies and weakness in the dollar.
Either way, I'd like to have some exposure to oil and gold, at the very least, but also look into agricultural futures and related stocks, since the trade truce signaled strength might be seen in these markets. Another interesting market to monitor is tech, in particular $QCOM in the event of a merger...I'll be watching $SPY, since I fear it is a bit stretched, and might go back down, if it's still range bound and not trending.
Cheers,

OPEC-JMMC Day: Oil and Loonie – Tentative moves?By Andria Pichidi - November 20, 2018
USDCAD and USOil, H4 and Daily
USOil prices reached an overnight high of USD 57.44 per barrel. The 4-day run higher in Oil prices, after a period of sharp declines, has helped the Canadian Dollar find a toehold. The contract has been supported by talk of a proposed production cut into year-end by OPEC and Russia, which was the main drive of yesterday’s sharp move higher, ahead of the December 6 meeting to be held in Vienna.
Bloomberg reported that Russia is in wait and see mode with regards to production cuts, quoting Russia energy minister Novak as saying producers need to “better understand both the current conditions and the winter outlook” before agreeing to cuts.
WTI crude is softer today, with prices having fallen back to levels just under $57 per barrel, after a 4-day rebound phase. Meanwhile USDCAD has retreated around the day’s Pivot Point at 1.3170 after pegging a 3-session high at 1.3202 yesterday. This puts Friday’s 12-day low at 1.3126 back in the scopes.
In the daily time frame, the cross has been seen moving within an ascending triangle since mid October, rebounding yesterday away from its lower trend line. As the price holds above the rising trend line, USDCAD remains in strong bullish sentiment in the medium picture. Only in case of a penetration along with the break of 20-day SMA and 23.6% Fib. level since October’s dip, would it find a Support level within 1 .3065-1.3078 area (38.2% Fib. level and 100-day SMA.)
Currently however, the market seems to be in a bullish mode overall, given that USDCAD is still trading above all the daily SMAs and with momentum indicators holding in the positive area. RSI has flattened above neutral and MACD dropped slightly below the trigger line, but remains well above zero line. Hence despite the fact that in the long term bullish bias holds strongly, in the near future, some consolidation is possible based on the flat RSI and small decline in MACD but also on the fact that 100 and 50 day SMA have been flattened in the daily chart. Resistance to the upside is set at yesterday’s high at 1.3200.
A jump above this resistance level could meet November’s high of 1.3263 . Further increases could move the price towards the 1.3300-1.3320 area.
As CAD and Oil are vulnerable to the possible OPEC plans to cut production, any remarks today from officials attending the OPEC-JMMC meeting, will weigh on the two assets. Nevertheless, BoC Wilkins speaks later today as well.

bearish on /clon the next few days and possibly next week I see a retest of the 55 area of support for /cl before attempting to break the resistance area of 59. I don't see oil bullish until we get a clearer direction as to what is going to happen with OPEC in December. until then I continue to be bearish.
WTI Light Crude Oil Monthly Chart- With Possible Wave Count!Current crude oil price may retrace to as high as 58.8, then a possible new drop to as low as 53.5.
Then a big correction may followed to trade higher above $60/bbl.
LONG TERM EVENTUAL TARGET MAY BE TO AS LOW AS $20/bbl.
ONLY SUSTAIN TRADING ABOVE $80/bbl negate this scenario!
WTI - Possible Downtrend reversalToday, oil spiked higher on the news of the possible OPEC and allies production cuts in 2019. Alongside with all the technicals outlined below, it would be reasonable to open a longer-term buy trade.
Daily:
1. Extreme oversold RSI reading
2. Bounce of an important support zone just under 60$ level
3. Break of the downtrend line on the RSI
4. Early buy signal on STCH + extreme oversold
4 Hour:
1. Break of the downtrend from 28th October
2. A buy signal on Slow Stochastic indicator
