📉 Looking for more upside on OilPrice reacted off the 79.90 and 79.10 area nicely. If you do not have any buy trade at the moment, you can consider waiting for the breakout above the 83.30 confirmation level. As long as price remains above 76.55, we continue to remain bullish and expect more upside.

The WTI Oil (USOIL) has been trading within a Channel Down pattern since early July. A key characteristic of that formation is that every time the 1D RSI entered its 35.50 - 30.00 Support Zone, the price rallied short-term on an increase ranging from +8.40% to +13.70%. Two days ago the RSI hit the exact 30.00 level and rebounded. A minimum +8.40% increase would made a new (Lower) High at 82.90 while the maximum of +13.70% would print 86.70 and most likely test the 1D MA50 (blue trend-line) as the August 30 Lower High did.

OIL - Still in bearishAlthough oil price rebounded yesterday, there is not enough momentum for keeping the uptrend. The overall trend is still downward.
From the H4 chart, the lower high after it breaks the 82 level also shows that oil prices as a whole continue to remain bearish.
I think it would be better to stay patient and wait for a pullback to enter the market.
for short orders💎short target at 75.5

WTI BEARISH OUTLOOKWTI reached its 8 months low, after the spike in price from the invasion in Ukraine. Investors are afraid that combination of increasing interest rates and high inflation will slow down the economy, from there and the demand for crude oil. The economic slow down of China has also put a down pressure on the oil price.
Technical indicators are also placing WTI into bearish scenario, with MACD under the 0 line and RSI under the 50 neutral line.
If the trend continues, the price might reach levels of 67.5 In opposite scenario, however, the price might test its previous high of 89.5

Natural Gas / NG - What, Truly, Is a Bull?The terms "bullish" and "bearish" when used on Twitter and TradingView and in the media are more or less just poorly positioned synonyms for "going up" or "going down."
Yet, it's a misnomer because some of the craziest pumps you'll ever see are during bear markets, and some of the craziest dump-a-thons you'll ever endure are during the most parabolic bull markets.
Right now, the energy world is ablaze because the Russian Federation has more or less cut Europe out of Nord Stream 1 while Europe is already in the middle of an exceptional energy crisis, wrought by its own choices to follow the globalist-communist bloc in trying to punish Putin for a war in Ukraine that roots back to more than a decade of U.S.-NATO-led pot-stirring.
News like this causes Europe's natural gas futures to print remarkably stupid prices, making a huge amount of widows from those who were trading short, and energy companies who are paying those prices and yet cannot charge those prices to the end user because of socialist command economy policies placed by the government.
However, for North America's Henry Hub futures, Europe needing gas doesn't really help, because the Freeport terminal that's really the only place that LNG gets exported in any meaningful quantity blew up in July.
It was supposed to come back online in October. And yet, news of its delay until at least November already printed on Aug. 23.
Taking a look at the monthly, you can see that NG is still, really, historically cheap:
The Biden Administration is going to donate a great quantity of natural gas to Europe once Freeport is back online. In my view, we're going to see a new all-time high print. Something that starts with the number "2."
But before we get there, it's important to keep a cool head, and ask yourself: if Freeport has been offline since July and was set to come back online in October, why does price meander in this $8-9.50 range so early?
Taking a look at the weekly provides some context:
Before Freeport blew up in the first place, NG was flirting with $9. Once it blew up, it immediately took a three week liquidation spree to $5.50, with the worst part of that trip occurring on the final day of June as monthly futures contracts settled.
Then it bounced. And for a commodity whose market maker usually likes to whip it up and down and gap up and gap down with violence on daily and weekly opens, it really just went in a straight line back to $9.
Expanding down to the daily, it's even more obvious how much this traded like the SPX500 does when the Fed's money printer is doing work so that 75 year old men can mash buy and take a nap:
And now here we are, entering the second week of September post-Labor Day. All the propaganda outlets and pundits crank the sirens, chanting, "Europe Natural Gas Utilities Crisis Russia Gazprom Texas Heatwave High Pressure Heat Dome California Electric Grid Shortage!!!"
And all of that is true, just like all of that was true for WTI Crude when it traded at $125 for two months.
And yet somehow, despite the fundamentals and all the pundits calling for $180 and $350 BECAUSE REASON S, oil is down 30% and it still isn't finished dumping.
So, why is it?
It's not hard to figure out.
It really isn't.
Retail buys high because they see confirmation that something is going up, and then panic sells when it gets rugged.
And then when it goes back up they mash buy at a higher price than they sold at because of "Fear of Missing Out," and then they don't sell when they're in profit because their target on the SPX is 12,836 because Gann and Elliot said so, and everyone wants to be that guy you hear about who bought Google at $2 and held it for 20 years while playing golf.
If Shell or Exxon traded like that, they would be bankrupt, none of us would have electricity to read these words, and we'd all either die from heat exhaustion or freeze to death without AC and furnaces.
The reality is that when NG dumped at the end of July, it still didn't dump deep enough to enter a discount in this overall trading range. We've simply been watching what is still currently the 7th straight week of premium trading.
If Natural Gas is going to go to $20 when Biden starts donating energy to save NATO's European arms, it really would make a lot more sense if some time were spent so companies and funds could accumulate a significant position at a relative discount.
And indeed, there are at least two fat and curiously unchallenged double bottoms presented in the 4H chart that just happen to be in the sub-50% dealing range and at a price so low that it will have margin calling and leave ZeroHedge and Javier Blas from Bloomberg and friends in bewildered disbelief as to how energy commodities aren't worth anything "in a recession."
I often say that what a person thinks can happen and what is actually happening in this world and this Universe are simply two totally different things. A human being is heavily deceived by the slow grind of time and the ostensible appearance before their eyes.
Reality, on the other hand, simply follows a certain law and it will complete itself according to that law no matter how anyone cries about it. Whoever is in harmony with the law will establish themselves, and whoever is afoul of the law will get liquidated.
The caveat to this chart is time. I can only fit so many 4H candles in a window and so the time on this chart only extends into early October. These lower prices, if they really come, could happen later in October or even in November.
And while it'll really be quite the opportunity, it's also a "second mouse gets the cheese" kind of thing for those who are trying to get long for the moon at $7 and $6.
Energy Natural gas idea (15/09/2022)Natural gas during the day.
The correction in wave 2 may be over, as the rise in the third wave has already started, and it may target a new level above 10.01, but this rise depends on trading remaining above the bottom of 7.532 as well, if trading remains above the bottom of 7.761, we may see an increase in prices.

WTI Crude: Potential 40$ Oil Next YearOPEC recently met this week to discuss whether or not to decrease crude oil production in October after initially deciding to increase production for September, increasing supply. Last month OPEC agreed to increase production in September by 100,000 barrels per day during their last meeting in August as the US strained to fight inflation and high energy prices. OPEC stated that the production increase was only meant for September, coming into agreement that in October they will cut production by 100,000 barrels per day.
Demand for crude oil has been falling and supply has been increasing OPEC stated, OPEC warned that a global economic slowdown is coming, and demand for crude oil has fallen 300,000 barrels per day in 2022, and will also fall by the same amount in 2023. OPEC further sees a possible increase in crude supply if Iran is able to agree on a new nuclear deal with the United States and Europe, which would ease sanctions on its exports
From a technical perspective USOIL has been trading below the 200 day simple moving average since July 14, crossing back above a few times in the summer in August, but recently this week has seen a sharp decline below the 200 day sma indicating strong selling pressure. Banks and investors will be gearing towards staying short oil. The default monthly 12 26 9 period MACD has recently shown strong bearishness as the fast line has fallen below the slow line, the last time this happened was September 2018, 4 years ago. The 1 month default RSI currently sits at a value of 52.28, above neutral with lots of room to become oversold and fall below 30. Crude could potentially see 40 dollars a barrel in 2023 until any change in bullish momentum is shown, momentum stands strongly bearish right now as the bears have taken control. Tomorrow the US IEA will release WTI crude inventory count numbers, and Kushing Oklahoma inventory numbers, (Crude Oil Inventories
Forecasted: -0.250M Previous -3.326M), and have forecasted an increase in supply from the previous week's count. $WTI Crude Oil $Brent Crude Oil

WTI oil - An indecisive moment in the oil marketWe warned about the possibility of a downtrend correction in the middle of August 2022. Indeed, we said that the breakout above the sloping support/resistance would lead to such action. Then shortly after that, USOIL rose from its lows and broke above the resistance, halting its rise at 97.65 USD per barrel.
Since then, the price fell back below the 90 USD price tag. However, the drop stopped slightly above the sloping support, which is bullish. Accordingly, we are bullish on oil for as long as the price stays above the support. However, an alternative position can be taken (with a tight stop-loss) on the breakout below the support.
In the short-term future, we will pay close attention to OPEC's rhetoric and any potential talks about more production cuts. In our opinion, cutting production risks higher prices for oil in the short term. Although with the prospect of global recession unraveling, we think production cuts will only have a temporary effect if any.
Illustration 1.01
The picture above shows the daily chart of USOIL. Yellow arrows indicate a bullish breakout above the sloping support/resistance and subsequent failure of the price to retrace below it. As long as the price stays above the sloping support/resistance, it stays in the bullish area.
Technical analysis - daily time frame
RSI and MACD are neutral. Stochastic is bearish. Overall, the daily time frame is neutral/slightly bearish.

Illustration 1.02 shows the daily chart of USOIL and two simple moving averages, which still reflect a bearish constellation.
Technical analysis - weekly time frame
RSI is neutral. Stochastic and MACD are bearish. DM+ and DM- are bearish. Overall, the weekly time frame is bearish.

WTI / OILHello traders, we are in a new month and it is considered dangerous.. so I see the movement of oil will be declining through increasing traders’ fears of the news of raising interest rates.. and I think that oil will break the support area 86.0 and head to the next support area 83.6. If you agree with me, leave your comment and admiration
Energy Natural Gas idea (23/08/2022)Natural gas during the day. The correction in wave (2) may be over, as the rise in the third wave has already started, and it may target a new high above 9.78, but this rise depends on trading remaining above the bottom of 5.325. Also, if trading remains above the bottom of 7.525, we may witness an increase in prices.
Resistance is located at 92.00 and should cap gains on WTICOUSWTI - Intraday - We look to Sell at 91.78 (stop at 95.24)
The medium term bias remains bearish. A firmer opening is expected to challenge bearish resolve. Resistance is located at 92.00 and should cap gains to this area. We look to sell rallies.
Our profit targets will be 84.10 and 82.00
Resistance: 92.00 / 100.00 / 112.00

WTI OIL heavily bearish eyeing a level untouched since Dec 2021!WTI CRUDE OIL (USOIL) eventually followed the rough projection we made three weeks ago and made a Lower Low as it failed to break above the 1D MA50 (blue trend-line) again:
This has created a new Channel Down on the medium-term, which after closing below the 1D MA200 (orange trend-line), it is now eyeing the 1D MA300 (red trend-line) for the first time since December 02 2021! As we outlined in our previous analysis though, the downtrend is unlikely to stop there and most likely will hit the November 2020 Higher Lows trend-line around 82.00 - 83.00 before giving a relief (at least) rally.

CRUDE facing resistanceCrude Oil futures appear to be facing some resistance about 100.
It is clear that the 95 support level has been holding well, especially when the weekly 55EMA meets price at the bottom of the triangle.
Daily chart tested 100 resistance to fail but technical indicators suggest that there should be more breakouts but not before some more consolidation.
Wait for it.
WTI crude oil (US Oil): Bearish channel testing key supportIt seems like only yesterday when oil prices were surging on Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, and analysts were predicting that the commodity could rise to $200 in short order. Since those fearful days in March however, supply has incrementally come into the market and demand has slackened, due in no small part to the high prices themselves.
Looking at the chart of WTI (US Oil), prices have definitively broken below the bullish trend line the characterized the entire uptrend through the first half of the year and indeed formed a new bearish channel since the start of June. The commodity is now testing a critical support level at 94.00; a close below this area would mark the lowest since February and pave the way for a deeper retracement toward the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement near $88 next.
Meanwhile, bulls would need to see prices bounce from support at $94 and break out of the current bearish channel to grow more optimistic on oil remaining sustainably in the triple digits as we head into August.
One way or another, crude oil should get a clear technical break in the coming days!
WTI OIL hit its 1D MA200 first time in 2022! Bottom can be lowerWTI Crude Oil (USOIL) touched today the 1D MA200 (orange trend-line) for the first time in 2022, more specifically since December 21 2021! This strong selling on the market has come after successive Lower Highs since June 14 and a rejection on the 1D MA50 (blue trend-line).
Since the March 08 market High, this may look as the start of a multi-year Bear Cycle but the fall isn't that dramatic yet, as excluding the June 14 High, the market has been ranging sideways (high volatility nonetheless) within a Rectangle pattern since the March drop. This is a make or break moment for the pattern. A break below the Support and naturally the 1D MA200, should seek the 1D MA300 (red trend-line) which priced the markets last Low on December 02 2021, before the mega rally started. A rebound on the Support should test the 1D MA50 on the short-term at least as a Resistance.
The most important indicator on this chart though is the RSI, which is displayed on the 1W time-frame. As you see, there is a Channel Down pattern involved, which (with the exception of the March war extreme) has price all of WTI's Highs and Lows since the March 08 2021 High! The best long-term buy on the market can be taken exactly on the Channel's Lower Lows (bottom) trend-line, whether that's on the 1D MA300 or one of the lower Higher Lows trend-lines involved.
