Is oil signalling a recession? Oil has really started to free fall.
The death cross on the daily chart has occurred. this is where the 50 MA intersects with the 200 MA in a downtrend.
This often implies more downside to the medium and long term but is often a great short term long signal.
Usually when you get this signal the market makers bounce the stock or commodity a bit before taking it lower.
We are hitting a massive multi year trend line going back to 2022 that should act as some support.
XLE looks ready for 1 more down leg before a swing tradable low is in.
Energy does have a tendency to fall precipitously so understanding oil can keep falling if investors fear the worst or a recession.
Crude Oil Slips: Third Consecutive Week **"Crude Oil Slips: Third Consecutive Week Of Losses Amid Mounting Bearish Pressure"** On Friday, August 30th, front-month crude futures sharply dropped before paring losses. OPEC+ is reportedly leaning toward an output increase in October. Our algorithm issued a daily chart sell alert on July 22, 2024, followed by a weekly chart sell alert on August 12. A break below the $69.28 price level on a weekly basis could potentially trigger a more significant decline, driving crude prices down to $60 or lower by early next year.
Finally time for bullish oil? $USO to $120 then $300+People have been calling for the oil bull market to begin for the past two years and the trade largely hasn't worked as we've gone sideways to down. However, based on the chart, it looks like we're finally ready for a run.
This would also line up with my bearish equity thesis.
Oil looks to have broken out of an inverse head and shoulders pattern and althought it's a diagonal pattern which are less reliable, the indicators that I have seem to support the narrative.
I think there's a possibility that we could see a 4x move over the next year or so.
Let's see how it plays out.

USO Oil ShortUSO on the 60 minute chart is currently in a broadening wedge and reflecting down off a
reversal at the upper resistance trend line. The MACD lines have crossed over the histogram
and are trending down showing moving average convergence. Price is between the mean and
first upper band lines and moving down toward the former. Current factors at play include
an OPEC+ meeting, Russia working around sanctions, increased demand of the summer driving
season, federal rate action projections as well as those in Europe and the ongoing conflicts in
the Middle East. I will short USO here targeting 74 at the bottom of the wedge pattern.
