WTI bears eye a move down to $80Last week's swing trade to $90 worked out well, yet momentum ha since shifted lower.
I noted in the recent COT report that managed funds and large speculators have been trimming long exposure in recent weeks, and that managed funds increased short exposure last week despite the slew of negative headlines surrounding the Middle East conflict. This also coincided with the two small bullish weekly candles, which appeared to be corrective on the weekly chart - and therfore suggests lower prices.
A lower high has formed below $90 and momentum turned lower. As support has been found around the Jan/April highs, we suspect a bounce is due. And this could allow bears to fade into favourable prices below $87 - $87.50 on the assumption a breakdown is pending ahead of its move to $80.
Should this be part of a larger decline, note that $75 and $70 are near the 100% and 138.2% Fibonacci projection levels on the daily chart.

Long term bullish
Oil prices have risen in recent days on the back of a bullish outlook from OPEC+'s monthly report and the International Energy Agency (IEA) released a monthly report on Tuesday that raised its crude oil demand growth forecast for this year and next.
Oil prices have been range-bound due to signs that tensions in the Middle East may be easing and uncertainty about U.S. oil inventories. The U.S. dollar index fell sharply to a more than two-month low after U.S. CPI data was weaker than market expectations, and the International Energy Agency ( The International Energy Agency (IEA) raised its forecast for crude oil demand, and oil prices once hit a one-week high.
The trend of crude oil fluctuated upward and continued to be blocked near 80, forming a repetitive rhythm of alternating main and main markets. The current support level of 77.3 and resistance level of 80 are very strong.
Crude oil will more likely fluctuate within this range. Watch today's EIA data.
Long term bullish
Should the CRUDE OIL rally from here_UPDATE!! I had posted a view on Crude oil that wave v should begin and rally till around 97$ mark a few days back.
Here is a more detailed 4hour chart of the same with updated and detailed wave counts as to give you the idea what my views are on the same.
Not gonna lie the fall below 76$ mark was not anticipated and did give a chill but the crucial wave 1 high of 74.69 was protected(and so was my wave count:)).
74.96 was the 4th wave low(yday's low).
The view remains the same till now with a slight modification of the target to 95$ now.
74.69 can even be used as a SL(since if this is violated that would indicate much more downside in Crude and make it pointless trying to go long on it)
Note*_ This view is based on personal observations and opinions. Please access your own risk and analyze any instrument thoroughly before taking up any financial positions.
Signs of oil move.Hi.
I'm starting to learn Lorentzian Classification.
Thought it would be a good idea to take a chart that is hard to figure out with my standard methods (like Ichimoku).
OK, let it be WTI Crude Oil.
I additionally adjusted native indicator settings and added:
- Source hlc3
- Show default / dynamic exits
- Use Worst Case Estimates
- Use EMA filter period
I turned on 3 month chart.
Oh. Interesting.
So, those green crosses are the default exits.
It is interesting that every time after printing such a signal the candles go under the midline.
Ok, I'll just watch it.
Oil will probably be cheaper later this year than it is now.
However, it may happen next year.
Crude oil prices have reached bottom
Issues of demand and supply remain key considerations for crude oil. There are currently some signs of support for crude oil. Oil prices fell below 75 this week and have been repeatedly testing upwards around 75. If the current price falls further, market participants will worry about an economic recession. In the short term, crude oil returns to the 80 area and continues to test back and forth.
All in all, the crude oil market's recent performance has been characterized by volatility, but signs of support have emerged. While questions surrounding demand, supply and geopolitical impacts remain, the potential for a short-term rebound is clear. It is unlikely that crude oil will fall sharply again, and the overall outlook is bullish.
Short continuation
Crude oil broke straight down yesterday, with the high point at 81.0, the lowest point at 77.0, and the closing price at 77.11. The daily level includes a big negative line. The high price did not break the previous high, but the low price broke the previous low, showing a downward trend. The daily line of crude oil showed an N-shaped downward break pattern on the general trend, and the market outlook continued to be bearish.
Crude oil shorts have broken through to open up space, and the short-term outlook is expected to continue. Short-term resistance levels focus on the 78.6-79.5 and 75.0-74.0 support levels.
Oil says nothing flattering about the global economyWest Texas Intermediate crude oil hit our price target of $80 and continues to slide lower. At the moment, it trades slightly above $76, which marks a decline of nearly 20% from the highs in late September 2023. Today, we want to talk concisely about two things. First, China’s demand for oil began to slow down again after slightly picking up during the summer, which is reflected in the latest data revealing the rising level of the country’s stockpiles (do not forget, China also experienced a significant drop YoY in exports for October 2023). Second, Saudi Aramco posted 23% lower net income in the third quarter of 2023 versus the same time in 2022. All in all, we presume that does not tell anything flattering about the global economy.

Crude Oil - New Lows - DailyCrude Oil just printing another LOWER-LOW.
78 support line became now a resitance zone , so we can see 73-74 zone , very soon.
Also OPEC anounced that they estimate an increase in barels per day in 2024-2025 , that is a bearish info beacause they already cut the production every month and the price is still in down trend, so with an slower economy also the demand its lower for OIL...so medium term im bearish on it.
Crude oil prices will continue to fall
Crude oil has been in a downward and volatile trend recently, and the increase in U.S. crude oil production has eased the market shortage. Although the Palestinian-Israeli conflict has played a certain role in raising oil prices, major oil-producing countries in the Middle East such as Saudi Arabia and Iran have not participated in the war and have not jointly reduced production. OPEC+ has reduced production many times since last year, So Middle East oil production cuts are less likely.
If the Arab states and Iran are involved in a war, they may jointly implement oil production cuts or embargoes, which will trigger an increase in oil prices.
Crude oil continues to fluctuate downward, trading in the range of 80-84.5
Crude oil analysis on November 7
After crude oil rose from a low of 80.66 to 82.24 yesterday, it has been unable to break through the key resistance level and began to fall to the bottom again today. Yesterday's upward trend in crude oil was also due to the current shortage of crude oil in the market and the US market situation.
Crude oil has strong support at 78.8 and resistance at 82.5. Today's market is more inclined to correct upward. Bulls are strong and are expected to break through 82.5 today

Oil is likely headed to $70 per barrel in 2024For the past four trading sessions, West Texas Intermediate crude oil oscillated between $83 and $85 per barrel. At the moment, it trades near the lower end of this range, and technical indicators on the daily chart continue to grow bearish; the same applies to technicals on the weekly graph. As a result, the likelihood of oil slumping below $80 in the short/medium term increases. This view is also supported by the weakening global economy and the latest data (preliminary) from Saudi Arabia (the world’s second-largest oil producer), which revealed the country’s economy shrank by 4.5% YoY in the third quarter of 2023 (the oil activities declined by 17.3%, while non-oil and government activities rose 3.6% and 1.9% respectively). Unless there is any significant disruption to the supply in the Middle East amid the Israel-Hamas War, we believe the crude oil is headed lower. With that said, we want to set our price target to $80 per barrel in the short/medium term and next year’s price target to $70 per barrel.

Crude oil faces rising opportunities
The crude oil market fell for a second straight week on renewed signs of weak demand after the premium over the risk of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict faded. However, weak data from the U.S. employment report supported market speculation that the Federal Reserve may stop raising interest rates, which provided some support for oil prices. Saudi Arabia's announcement to cut crude oil production will further push up oil prices.
A tight market for crude oil is supporting crude prices. The current support level of .80 has been continuously tested but has not fallen below. Let’s see if crude oil can break through 85.5 in the future
Crude Oil - KeyLevelsOil, after breaking the support of the trend line, attempted a comeback and retested the former support line that turned into resistance, from where the sellers managed to defend the price and thus it seems that we only had a discount for a new sell.
Now the price is in an interesting neckline and I, personally, am only looking for a short.

The subsequent direction of crude oil
The rebound of crude oil has strengthened again, and the 80.8 support node has begun to rebound. The current increase has reached 82.8, correcting yesterday's unilateral downward trend.
However, if the current rise in crude oil cannot break this week's high of 85, it will be more likely to fall to a new low.
The daily MA5 moving average and MA10 moving average moved down to 83.3 and 84.3 respectively.
To put it simply, if crude oil cannot rise to around 85 again, it will fall below 80.
Crude oil continues to be bearish in the short term.

Pay attention to the key position 85.85
Crude oil has experienced two consecutive weeks of range-bound volatility. Attempts to break above resistance failed. The shortage of crude oil in the market is also constantly easing, limiting the upward range of oil prices and reducing investors' willingness to chase increases. The current low inventory situation will also limit the room for correction of oil prices, which means that oil prices will most likely remain within the range for some time to come. , pay attention to the rhythm and control the risks.
The daily trend of oil prices still remains below the mid-range and short-term moving averages. The indicators in the attached chart also maintain the development of bearish signals. The short-term trend is still likely to fall back. But combined with the weekly chart, crude oil is obviously bullish.
Pay attention to the resistance levels of 85.85 and 87.5 and the support level of 82.3. 85.85 is a bullish key level
