USO
If Oil, gold and SPX stay linked, here is one possible set of paLEFT CHART Oil: I expect oil to hit the top of longterm channel (orange line) where it will likely be rejected softly, then break it again and retest... at about that point the 20DMA may cross the 50DMA which will cause a strong surge (like the past gold rush)... my PT 36,09 but could be higher.
MIDDLE CHART Gold: Looking for a possible H&S here, with a breach back into the long term channel, some flux for a bit and then the BIG move many believe is coming.
RIGHT CHART SPX: May test the middle of the W 1933ish is the next few days and then some flaggish movement towards a 50% retrace of losses from all time highs. Final PT 1973 with a sharp decline right after.
Since these 3 have had related movement patterns, I've done them all together - which could of course go WAY off course if any correlation breaks or changes... just some ideas if we stay on the same track for a bit.
Weekend update on USOIL (WTI)Looking at my recent postings I realize some of my labeling in inconsistent. So I will try to label again that hopefully makes more sense. Basically I see the action since the low of 1/20/16 to now as part of a A-B-C correction pattern. It still could be the start of a new larger scale 5 wave up but that seems less likely but could be considered if the recent high is majorly taken out. Of course corrections can come in all kinds of forms and be very frustrating to trade. My best guess however is that over the next week or so there will be one more wave up. It would be a "C" wave which often are quite energetic. I still think the 36-37 area is a likely target. At that level (C) =(A) and C =1.6x A and it reaches overhead resistance from the previous near term high. If we drop out of the larger channel then I am most likely wrong and will exit. Hope this turns out to be helpful. Have a great weekend and great trading next week. Goodguy
Feedback always appreciated.
US Oil: Possible short term course.The entire price action the last 3 days looks like a 5 wave up pattern.(see 15 min chart) This usually is followed by another 5 wave up pattern after a correction. The corrections can be complex (such as a 5 wave triangle) or simple (such as an a-b-c)). After that I would not be surprised to see another 5 wave move up to a new short high, perhaps to the 35-36 level. If it would go much higher then it could be part of a more extensive 3 wave. Obviously if the "correction" goes below the recent low this concept is wrong.
Take care. Goodguy
USOIL: Bottom may be in for crude oil On my previous post about 9 days ago I set down target for oil at about 18-25. It got to 27.53 then we had a nice bounce up. To me the form of the upswing looks like a 5 wave up pattern. This action could just be part of a 3 wave down triangle that is still developing and might take oil up to about 36. But it could be the first indication that the longer term bottom is in. This obviously will be wrong if the previous near term low is taken out.
Have a good week trading.
OIL: New low eventually ahead? Seems likely to me.A couple of days ago I suggested that the recent upswing in oil may be short lived and I closed my long position. We did get a correction today. Looking at the weekly longer term log chart I believe most like we will see a lower low ahead. This is based on the two channels I have drawn and the ares of longer term support. My opinion would change if the steeper black down channel is broken. Take care. Have a good week trading.
