USO

USO: Rubber BallLike a rubber ball, USO has bounced off the green zone between $77.92 and $79.69 twice and finished wave 5 in green. We now expect it to jump a bit higher still to finish wave ii in orange before dropping down until the support line at $67.68. There, it should rebound to complete wave iv in orange and resume the overarching downward movement afterwards, which should lead into the turquoise zone between $60.18 and $43.48. There is a 30% chance, though, that USO could jump above the resistance at $87.83, thus continuing the ascent instead.

Crude Oil - CL Daily WedgeStructurally, Oil looks to be moving higher in time. We see Early July as the pivot to higher after a potential dip in to lows to chase away the Retail Herd. China imported a record volume of Russian crude in May, with arrivals surging by 55 percent to nearly 2 million BPD. This has made Russia the top oil supplier to the world's leading crude importer—putting it ahead of Saudi Arabia for the first time in a year and a half. A record volume of cheap Russian oil, which sells at steep discounts to crude from other countries, made its way to Chinese refiners last month, according to figures from China's Administration of Customs. Off NYMEX Pricing discounts are quite common and have been for some time. Our Riggers appear bound and determined to spike Oil as high as possible to suit their needs for the Greener Agendas and pastures of the promised BBB. Build back from the rubble... isn't going to work now other than facilitate a move to Robo Transpo.

Crude in retracementCrude oil prices are in clear retracement this week, in the midst of broad market down trending. Previous week's assessment was that Crude stalled, and the week passed saw Crude reach near target, almost 124, before stalling and retracing. For interest, white arrows show entry and exit points that were taken. Just days after closing the trade, Crude turned down for a retracement, and started with a weekly down candle that wiped out 5 weeks of gains. The daily chart shows that particularly after FOMC announcement of the 75 basis point increment, Crude took a definitive step back, and as the news sunk in, accentuated the slide downwards. Crude is in retracement mode, that appears to target 95 bounce support at the moment. The trajectory is broken, but the target for USD155-160 for 2022 is still in the making; IF Crude prices falls and maintains below 82, then it nullifies the USD155 projection. Weekly and Daily technical indicators are bearish for now. Look for 100 and 95 as supports over the next week.

Crude pausesThe Crude oil futures weekly chart started the week with a gap up, but ended the week with a doji candlestick, indicating a stall. Weekly indicators are divergent currently, with the RPM clearly pointing out the stalling, but the MACD crossed over to be bullish again. The daily chart shows of a mid-week extension to near the 125 target, missing slightly, and then stalling and retracing at the end of the week. The rate of daily increase is steady, and not sudden spikes, which is good for the trend build up. Meaning, it would probably last longer uptrend. But for now, it appears to be stalling, and the daily technicals are also showing the signs of a stall. Expectations for the coming two to three weeks would be retracements and consolidating for a coil, before the next launch, pending no sudden geopolitical events to trigger price spikes.

Crude Oil much longer term perspectiveThe monthly Crude Oil chart shows some seriously nasty ranges. From early 2000s, we have had monthly close check-ins from 20-140; and it does appear that the current dash for the upper end of the range is stronger in momentum (acceleration as seen by the slope and the size of the candlesticks). Taking history into account, it should slow down once crude is about 140, but I suspect the momentum should push it beyond, and as far as 155 in an overshoot. IF we are lucky, ensuing years might see it come back down to 42-45 support area. Unless it maintains above 140, then there would be a massive range breakout. Projections from there would give crude oil another 100 more... yes, 240. But for the nearer term, When crude makes a high above 140 by the end of 2022, things should start getting shaky... watch for it! Phwfffftttttt....

Crude Oil UP ah!For the past month or so, been talking about higher Crude prices in the making. Here we are closer to that... The Weekly chart closed at a monthly high, and with such gusto that it is the most bullish looking candle in the past 6 weeks! This came after many indications and warnings from weekly candlestick patterns and daily technicals as outlined previously in the last couple of weeks. So, now the weekly technical indicators are showing a bullish turn. The daily chart have a late week Crude Oil price spike, that is meeting a gap resistance, and the coming week should break through... this is supported by the RPM and MACD technicals. 125 then 155... and this is an off-cycle surge, so am expecting a quick surge really.

USO: Springy 👟👟USO seems to have put on its extra springy sneakers as it has jumped up into the green zone between $83.54 and $87.83 quite briskly after pressing against it for some time. Now, it should finish wave B in green in this region and subsequently turn around to move downwards. On its way, USO should then drop back below $82.48 and also fall below the support lines at $67.68 and $62.92 to reach the yellow zone between $60.18 and $43.48, where wave (2) in yellow should end.

Crude Oil clear breakoutCrude oil, as previously heads up, has broken out of its triangle decisively. It is now needed to clear 120 to continue its uptrend comfortably, with a near term target of 125. Nonetheless, daily technicals are supportive, with bullish candlestick patterns, so 125 target is deemed reasonably attainable. Longer term upside targets are 155-160, by early June, which is a little quick on the rise IMHO. *updated chart from previously, with slight adjustments.

Crude Oil giving a heads up onto a massive breakoutI have not seen such bullish candlestick patterns for a very long time now... The weekly chart had an amazing weekly candle where it is a T type doji, with indications of massive upward momentum, pushing with upward pressure. This comes in tow with two or three previous long tail pattern, and the weekly close is highest in the past 6 weeks. Weekly MACD appear to be turning up again, although not yet crossed over. The Daily chart shows how the week developed, with a mid-week bullish engulfing, and a follow through to the end of the week, with a solid bullish marubozu. Just plain bullish indications, if you ask me. Technicals are again turning upwards, supporting the upward march. Simple projections bring Crude to USD124 at the very least, by end May 2022. And... this is just the beginning. Fair warning given previously... now, it is looking that previous expectations are panning out.

USO: StairwalkerUSO has planned a tough workout on the stairwalker. After finishing wave iii in turquoise in the upper turquoise zone between $76.92 and $75.60, it should move upwards to complete wave iv in turquoise. Then, USO should drop into the lower turquoise zone between $73.45 and $72.12 to end waves v in turquoise and 1 in green. Following another countermovement into the green zone between $77.71 and $81.57, where wave 2 in green should end, USO should fall below the support at $67.68 and the one at $62.92. There, it should enter the yellow zone between $60.18 and $43.48 to finish waves 3 in green, c in orange and (2) in yellow.

Crude Oil continues upward momentumAs projected previously, Crude Oil prices are spiking and momentum continue to suggest that it is on track, and just might accelerate. Weekly chart closed with bullish momentum pattern and above average of the recent weeks. Long lower tails and close near the weekly tops suggest bullish momentum (also picking up?) The daily chart is now holding above a consolidation range, and technicals support the upward push to the next higher level. Closing above 120 will firmly put 165 in the target zone.

Crude Oil breakout to the upsideIn an earlier (longer range) post, Crude to spike over USD150 this time... , Crude oil, energy were already earmarked for an upside spike in the coming weeks to months. Yesterday, due to a EU proposal to have a Russian oil ban including an embargo on crude in six months , it sent prices rocketing over 5% for yesterday. This rise was probably fueled further by FOMC's decision not to raise rates by more than 50 basis points. Some ambiguity in the interpretation but it was overall viewed as positive for demand, etcc. The close was nicely above the gap resistance, and so far in Asian trading hours appear to be continuing the uptrend, keeping well clear of the gap range reopening (yellow box) Based on shorter term projections, the triangle breakout targets USD126 in mid-May. MACD is supportive with a widening above the zero line. We have to wait and see if the acceleration picks up over the next two weeks. Short term target close USD126 Longer term target USD165 Please be prepared, a lot of inflationary pain will flow downstream...
