#Oil - Is shorting this market wise?As the oil market continues to rise, there are clear intentions from a number of market analysts to short the Oil market.
Keeping an eye on the current futures expiries for WTI Oil there are strong indications that buyers are easing off, while sellers are coming in strong. While Geopolitical issues could change and of course change the direction of the market, this has not happened.
Let's focus on what we know! there is an overall decrease in the open interest across the market, while the price continues to rise. This is indicating that there is divergence in the interest in this trend, and we should be on high alert that the uptrend is aggressively slowing down.
But, with all this information we still can't change the overall focus that there is a global increase in oil prices and the market has not indicated a turn.
Summary: the current balance area is just below $90, and until we see a new balance area created or a drop below $90 we still need to go with what is obvious.

WTI CRUDE OILFor the fifth week running, WTI Crude Oil made its highest weekly close in 7 years last week and printed a relatively large bullish candlestick which looks healthy, closing very close to the high of its price range. This suggests a further rise to come, with the price perhaps being boosted by fears of war between Russia and Ukraine. There are bullish signs, and I continue to see WTI Crude Oil as an interesting buy.
WTI Crude Oil Forecast: Crude Oil Looking for a PullbackThe West Texas Intermediate Crude Oil market has initially tried to rally during the trading session on Thursday as we have seen a lot of volatility in various markets. That being said, the market has rallied significantly during the course of the trading session, only to turn around and fall towards the $90 level. That being said, we did up forming a bit of a shooting star, and it does suggest that maybe we get a little bit of a pullback.
However, the market has seen a hammer from the previous session, so be interesting to see if we just definitely hang about the $90 level, or if we are going to have a little bit deeper pullback. Quite frankly, I would love to see a little bit more of a pullback, but I do not know that we get it. If we break down below the bottom of the candlestick from the Wednesday session, then I will start looking to pick up this market somewhere around the $86.50 level with an eye on the $85 level underneath being massive support. The 50 day EMA is also reaching higher, and therefore it is likely it will kind of combined to add a massive “floor in the trend.”
If we do turn around a break above the top of the candlestick for the trading session on Thursday, then it could open up a move towards the highs. Either way, I do not have any interest in shorting this market, due to the massive uptrend that we have seen, but quite frankly this is a market that is probably due for some type of correction. This will be especially true if the US dollar starts to spike going forward, which obviously has a small influence on this market.
I think the only thing you can count on at this point is a bit of volatility as we are at a major level, and of course the markets in general are freaking out about the Federal Reserve and the high inflation that we see. If they slam on the brakes by tightening monetary policy, it could drive down demand in the world’s biggest economy, which has a knock on effect in several other economies. Because of this, crude oil will more than likely have to cool off a bit in order to build up momentum to the upside.
Technical analysis update: WTI oil (8th February 2022)Recently, WTI oil reached a new high of 93.14 USD per barrel. Simultaneously, all our price targets were reached. Because of that we decided to update our thoughts on USOIL today. We continue to maintain a bullish stance in the medium-term and long-term. However, in the short-term we foresee headwinds for oil due to many technical indicators pointing to an overbought condition. We expect the price of USOIL to drift lower towards Support 2 at 85.39 USD. Because of that we would like to set a short-term price target for USOIL to 87.50 USD per barrel.
Technical analysis - daily time frame
RSI is bearish as it performed crossover below 70 points. MACD is flattening which suggests that the bullish momentum is decreasing. Stochastic remains in the bullish area, however, it already points to the downside which is bearish. DM+ and DM- show bullish conditions in the market. However, ADX suggests that these conditions are near its peak. Additionally, the price deviated too far from its simple moving averages. Overall, the daily time frame suggests that the price of USOIL is ripe for correction.
Technical analysis - weekly time frame
RSI shows divergence with price. Additionally, it performed a crossover below 70 points, similarly like on the daily time frame. These developments are bearish. MACD and Stochastic remain bullish. DM+ and DM- are also bullish. Overall, the weekly time frame is mixed.
Illustration 1.01

$WTI Light crude oil short term overbought?Short term we are at the upper end of the the resistance trendline and at the same place where RSI-14 peaked at approximately the 77 reading on the previous two swing highs. From a time cycle perspective of the previous peaks, we have had approximately 70-80 bears between each peak -with the current peak 73 days from the last.
No guarantee this plays out again but if history repeats and rhymes then watch for a short term pullback in the oil price from these levels.
Technical analysis update: WTI oil (19th January 2022)Today WTI oil reached 87.90 USD per barrel which coincides with a new high in price that has not been seen since 2014 and which confirms the continuation of the uptrend. We continue to maintain a bullish outlook on WTI oil in the medium-term and long-term. However, in the short term we are becoming very cautious as some technical indicators reached an overbought condition which suggests that the price of USOIL might be ripe for correction before continuing higher. We will watch the support level at 85.39 USD (previous high from 25th October 2021) and its ability to hold selling pressure in case it occurs. Our long-term price target remains 90 USD per barrel.
Technical analysis - daily time frame
MACD and Stochastic remain bullish. RSI reached overbought territory which suggests that USOIL might retrace lower before continuing higher. DM+ and DM- continue to show bullish conditions. Additionally, ADX increases which suggests that the bullish trend is gaining momentum. Overall, the daily time frame remains bullish while it signals possible correction in price.
Technical analysis - weekly time frame
RSI, MACD and Stochastic are all bullish. DM+ and DM- performed the bullish crossover recently. ADX undergoes reset. Overall, the weekly time frame is bullish.

WTI BULLISH FLAG PATTERN in 1hA flag pattern, in technical analysis, is a price chart characterized by a sharp countertrend (the flag) succeeding a short-lived trend (the flag pole).
A bullish flag appears like an upright flag on a price chart, with a rectangular price pattern marking the flag itself.
The tighter the flag, the better the signal is said to be.
Overdue correctionWTI has been in a very long Wave 3 for almost two months, despite the lack of fundamental catalyst, we will see a correction down to $84.88 before resuming an upward trend, before demand destruction clashes with a failed breakout/start of corrective waves and oil gets genuinely into trouble again - then we can see $50s by late 2022
Technical analysis update: WTI oil (17th January 2022)WTI oil continues to march higher and we continue to maintain a bullish outlook on oil. Our view is supported by a combination of bullish technical and fundamental factors. Currently, we will observe whether USOIL will manage to break above the major resistance at 85.39 USD which will further bolster the bullish case for WTI oil. We would like to set a new short-term price target for USOIL to 85 USD per barrel. Our long-term price target is 90 USD per barrel.
Technical analysis - daily time frame
RSI is very bullish and due to perform crossover above 70 points (into overbought zone). We expect such a phenomenon to be accompanied by further rise in price. However, after completion of crossover we think it is likely that price will retrace lower before continuing towards a price tag of 90 USD per barrel. MACD and Stochastic are also bullish. DM+ and DM- signal bullish trend. Additionally, ADX exhibits growth which suggests that the prevailing bullish trend is gaining strength. Overall, the daily time frame is bullish.
Technical analysis - weekly time frame
RSI is bullish. Same applies to MACD and Stochastic. DM+ and DM- performed bullish crossover recently. ADX undergoes reset as it declines. Overall, the weekly time frame is bullish.
Support and resistance

WTI Crude Oil (Precursor of the inflation is HERE)View On WTI Oil (21 Jan 2022)
We had a strong swing up to break past the prev high of $86.
Now the oil price is taking some breather and pulling back.
But I reckon the BULLish side is still in play and the current pullback will not last.
It can swing to $79 or even $75 region but one should consider buying in only.
Be patience and time it well.
DYODD, all the best and read the disclaimer too.

Oxy Short Oxy looks like it may have ran up and hit its head on the goal post, should take a breather here. I got some 40.00$ puts for 3/25, looking for a quick trade. Gonna cash out with anything better than a 20% gain. PS I work in The Permian Basin, we are super busy. Long term Oxy will test the break out and head higher. This is just what I'm doing, the only thing you should do is comment back if I'm right or wrong lol, do not copy this trade.
USOIL - Time For Shorts ✅Following on from our last post on USOIL, we mentioned how USDCAD is inverted correlated to USOIL and USDCAD made a particular price action that is being repeated on USOIL.
See that post below:
We are now approaching the third touch of the channel where we are anticipating a rejection.
Trade Idea:
- Watch for rejection of the channel
- Risk entry on rejection. Safe Entry on break of the ascending red trendline
- Stops outside the channel
- Targets: 82, 72, actively manage the rest if we break the channel
Goodluck and trade safe!
The correction I want to see before trading on USOIL This is an update on the post I made last week regarding the correction I want to see before trading (you can see the full post on the "link to related ideas")
The concept of the setup is pretty simple. The price has already behaved in similar ways in the current area in the past, and the last thing I need to observe to say "This is ready" is the correction I have defined on this chart. Of course, if this doesn't happen, then I will not be able to trade, and that's the end of the story. However, if the filter happens, I know ill be in front of a high-quality setup.
PAST SITUATIONS:
The setup is like this . If the expected correction happens, I will set pending orders on a new local high, stop loss below the correction and target on the next weekly resistance level. This setup can take around 150 to 200 days. The risk I will be taking in this situation is 3% of my trading capital.
Thanks for reading! Feel free to share your view and charts in the comments.
WTI Crude Oil Technical Analysis & Trade IdeaWTI Crude is currently range bound however there is indication of weakness coming into the chart. I'm looking at a potential short opportunity if we get the setup. I need to see a break and re-test of a daily key level. If we break these levels there's a decent price gap we could trade through down to a weekly key level. Not financial advice.
