UKOIL JUNE 2024 WEEK 4 OUTLOOK - Daily - Interesting gap down to POC on oil this morning. this gap is highly likely to be filled by today itself. (got a 15M zone that needs to be held if it has to fill the gap). anyways, it looks good for longs as long as price holds above this POC. Origin - decent volume factor in favor of buyers last week. but looks like this will be a no trade week for me as we have POC above and no room to trade between CPR and POC like we did with AUDUSD. so no trading oil for me this week.

The price has shown a recent upward movement, indicating a potential bullish trend as it has increased by 1.59% in the last week. Volume Analysis: The volume is 259.537K, which indicates the level of trading activity. The volume does not show a significant spike, suggesting moderate trading interest at the current price levels. Technical Indicators: Stochastic RSI: The Stochastic RSI is at 41.60 (blue line) and 26.77 (orange line), which are relatively low. This suggests that the asset might be in the early stages of a potential uptrend, with room to move higher before becoming overbought. Relative Strength Index (RSI): The RSI is at 45.54, which is below the neutral level of 50. This indicates that the market is neither overbought nor oversold, providing a balanced view with a slight bearish bias. Trend Analysis: The long-term trend shows a series of higher highs and higher lows from the start of the chart in 2022 until mid-2023. However, from mid-2023, the trend shifted to lower highs and lower lows, indicating a bearish phase. The recent price movement suggests a possible trend reversal or at least a correction in the bearish trend as the price has started to move upwards. Support and Resistance Levels: Support: Immediate support is around $78.50, which is a recent low. Resistance: Immediate resistance is around $86.00, which is the recent high. Major resistance can be observed at $92.00, where previous price action has shown resistance. The chart shows a potential shift from a bearish trend to a bullish correction. Traders should watch for a break above the immediate resistance at $86.00 for confirmation of continued upward movement. The RSI and Stochastic RSI indicate room for further upward movement before entering overbought territory. Monitoring volume trends for confirmation of sustained buying interest will be crucial for validating any potential bullish reversal. In summary, while the long-term trend has been bearish, recent price action and technical indicators suggest a potential bullish correction. Traders should look for confirmation above resistance levels and increased volume to support the continuation of the upward movement.

OIL. Time to collect a little bit into the bucket :)In my short-term trade, the level of 79.5-80 USD will be very important. I am looking for strong support here with the potential for an upward impulse of 11% to the area of ​​89.3 USD. This area is an extremely important point for further play and the situation must be closely monitored. When the price shows significant weakness, a quick drop to a new LOW - around 60 USD will be possible. If the price breaks the level of 89.3 USD with a decisive move, we will probably see an increase under 110 USD - around ATH. At 110 dollars, two situations are possible: a) we break it with a decisive move to 133-135 USD, a small correction to 110 and further upward movement b) we return to 89.3 USD and from there we build an upward movement Generally, no matter what happens, I assume that in this edition we will see prices in the range of 200-770-315 USD in the future.

Brent Crude Oil Price Hits Highest Since 1 MayBrent Crude Oil Price Hits Highest Since 1 May As the chart shows, yesterday the price of Brent crude oil rose to $84.40, which is the highest level since 1 May 2024. The demand for Brent crude oil was driven by the following factors: The holiday season and increasing consumption from automotive and aviation transport. We wrote about this in the Brent market analysis on 11 June. Let us recall that Goldman Sachs analysts suggest that by the end of the summer, the price of Brent may rise to $86 per barrel with a “ceiling” around $90. Geopolitical tension, namely: → Ukrainian drone strikes on Russian oil refining bases. → The likelihood of escalation in the Middle East. For instance, Reuters reports that Israel’s Foreign Minister Israel Katz warned of an impending “total war” with Lebanon’s Hezbollah, which is backed by Iran. Meanwhile, the technical analysis of the Brent crude oil price chart shows that: → The price continues to be within the narrowing triangle (shown in blue), which we wrote about on 11 June, but has risen above its median, approximately at the $83.0 level. → Additionally, the price is consolidating above the descending trend line (shown in red). → The fact that today the Brent price is pulling back after setting yesterday's high appears to be a false bullish breakout of the 29 May peak. It is possible that, by forming a bull trap, the price will retreat to the median around the $83 level. Additional support could be provided at $81.66, where the bulls found support before breaking through the red line. However, with the prospect of an increasingly hot summer, the price may continue to rise to the upper boundary of the channel, thereby confirming the Brent crude oil price forecast by Goldman Sachs analysts.

The Petrodollar Agreement and the Future of OilThe term "petrodollar" refers to the value of oil bought with U.S. dollars. This concept was founded in 1974 when Saudi Arabia and the United States made an agreement to price Saudi oil exports exclusively in U.S. dollars. This arrangement had significant effects on the global economy and politics. This system increased the global demand for U.S. dollars. Oil-exporting countries like Saudi Arabia committed to selling oil only in dollars, forcing other countries needing oil to acquire U.S. dollars for transactions. This continuous demand strengthened the value of the dollar in global markets. This system also led to the widespread use of the dollar. Since oil is a strategic commodity used worldwide, the need for dollars to buy oil pushed countries to hold large reserves of dollars. This includes central banks and major companies that rely on importing oil to meet their needs. Due to the increased demand and continuous use of the dollar, its value became stable. When there is a high and steady demand for a currency, its price fluctuations decrease, making it a stable and reliable currency for international trade. This stability enhanced the dollar's position as the world's main reserve currency. Why Is the World Watching Now? Recent geopolitical developments and changes in global alliances have sparked discussions about Saudi Arabia's role in the petrodollar system. Major economies like China and the European Union are emerging as key players in global oil markets, and there are serious and successful attempts to price oil in their currencies. The BRICS aims to launch a new global economic system, and the idea of pricing oil in non-dollar currencies has been proposed. This idea is not just a theoretical study but is based on tangible real-world evidence. After the Russian war on Ukraine and the subsequent economic sanctions from the U.S. and the West, Russia announced it would sell its oil in rubles under certain conditions. In March 2023, a deal was made for Russia to sell oil to India, with payment in rubles. In the same month, Saudi Arabia announced its intention to consider exporting part of its oil to China in yuan. The United Arab Emirates took the first step in this field by pricing gas in Chinese yuan. Last year, the Shanghai Stock Exchange announced the pricing of a shipment of Emirati gas in Chinese currency. The UAE did not immediately announce whether it would continue pricing part of its liquefied gas exports in yuan on the Shanghai Stock Exchange or if it was just testing the global market's reaction to this move. Benefits for the UAE and China For the UAE, the benefits include diversifying revenue sources and reducing reliance on the U.S. dollar. This move strengthens economic ties with China, the world's second-largest economy, opening up more opportunities for cooperation and joint investments. It also represents a strategic step towards achieving greater flexibility in international financial and trade dealings. For China, this move enhances the yuan's position as an international currency, contributing to reducing reliance on the U.S. dollar in global trade. By pricing oil and gas in yuan, China can secure energy supplies with its local currency, reducing currency conversion costs and helping to enhance internal financial stability. Impact on the Dollar A crucial point is the global push towards renewable energy and the potential decrease in oil demand, which can significantly affect the dynamics of the petrodollar system. As the world seeks to shift to cleaner and more sustainable energy sources, the importance of oil—and thus the petrodollar—may diminish in the global economy. Additionally, the changing political landscape, including shifts in U.S. foreign policies and Saudi Arabia's strengthening relations with other global powers, may lead to a reevaluation of the petrodollar arrangement. These political shifts might prompt Saudi Arabia and other countries to consider using alternative currencies in oil trade. Vision for Diversification Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates aim to diversify their economies away from oil dependence to achieve long-term economic sustainability and reduce risks associated with global oil price fluctuations. Saudi Arabia's "Vision 2030" aims to diversify income sources and develop new economic sectors such as tourism, entertainment, industry, technology, and education. This program aims to create new job opportunities, attract foreign investments, and achieve comprehensive and sustainable economic growth. The UAE focuses on developing sectors such as tourism, aviation, trade, finance, technology, real estate, education, and renewable energy. Through this vision, the UAE seeks to strengthen its position as a global hub in various fields, which it has largely succeeded in so far, and reduce its reliance on oil as a main part of its economy. In summary, the world is closely watching Saudi Arabia and its allies because any changes in their approach to oil trade and currency preferences can have widespread effects on global financial markets, the strength of the U.S. dollar, and international economic relations.

Traders, managers and loss aversion in investment banking█  Traders, managers and loss aversion in investment banking In investment banking institutions, traders and managers exert immense pressure to maximize gains while minimizing losses. In fact, loss aversion, the tendency to prefer avoiding losses over acquiring equivalent gains, is what influences most of their decision-making. If not managed effectively, this bias can lead to suboptimal trading decisions and significantly impact the overall performance of financial institutions. This comprehensive field study by Willmana et al., "Traders, Managers, and Loss Aversion in Investment Banking," examines how loss aversion manifests among traders and managers in four major investment banks. The study integrates insights from agency theory and prospect theory to explore the risk management strategies employed by both groups. █  Background and Theory Two critical theories, agency theory, and prospect theory, help explain how individuals within these institutions make decisions. Agency Theory: This theory deals with the relationship between principals (e.g., shareholders) and agents (e.g., managers and traders). It posits that agents employed to make decisions on behalf of principals may not always act in the principal's best interests due to differing goals and risk appetites. For instance, if you're a trader, you might engage in riskier behavior to maximize your bonuses. At the same time, your managers might prioritize stability and risk mitigation to protect their positions. Prospect Theory: Introduced by Daniel Kahneman and Amos Tversky, prospect theory describes how people choose between probabilistic alternatives that involve risk. It highlights two main biases: loss aversion and the framing effect. Loss aversion is the tendency to prefer avoiding losses over acquiring equivalent gains, and the framing effect shows that the way a problem or decision is presented can significantly impact choices. █  Explanation of Risk Aversion and Loss Aversion Risk Aversion: It is the preference for certainty over uncertainty. In the context of trading, risk-averse individuals prefer investments with lower risk and potentially lower returns over those with higher risk and higher potential returns. Loss Aversion: A central component of prospect theory, loss aversion suggests that the pain of losing is psychologically about twice as powerful as the pleasure of gaining. This bias can lead traders to hold onto losing positions longer than is rational and to sell winning positions too quickly, seeking to lock in gains and avoid realizing losses. █  Methodology The study by Willmana et al. utilizes a qualitative research approach, focusing on detailed interviews to gather insights into the behaviors and attitudes of traders and managers in investment banking. The researchers interviewed 118 traders and managers across four leading investment banks. These interviews included questions about motivations, emotions, trading strategies, organizational culture, and experiences with gains and losses. Additionally, 10 senior managers participated in the management interview section, providing a broader perspective on organizational practices and controls. █  Key Findings Managers are primarily concerned with mitigating losses rather than maximizing gains. Position holders tend to intervene more aggressively when traders experience losses, emphasizing the need to cut losing positions quickly to prevent further deterioration. The study found that managers used veto power primarily to reduce risk. As one manager said, "My veto works only one way—to reduce risk." Managers frequently highlighted the importance of controlling downside risk. One manager noted, "My role as a manager is to cover the downside rather than the upside. I try to enforce the discipline of cutting losses rather than pushing them to add to positions." ⚪ Differences in Risk Management Strategies The study revealed traders often operate with significant autonomy and tend to take on more risk, particularly in pursuing higher bonuses. Conversely, managers focus on ensuring that risk levels remain within acceptable limits, stepping in mainly to curtail losses. The research showed that managers are generally ex-traders who understand the technical complexities of trading. However, their managerial role shifts their focus towards risk containment. One trader mentioned, "95% of the time, managers are traders who have been in the business a long time and they have no real management skills." Traders have a strong ethos of autonomy, with managers intervening only when necessary. A manager noted, "I consider I have a veto on any positions my traders take, even when they are within their limits. But, to give you an idea, I think last year I used it once, the year before twice, and this year, not at all." ⚪ Impact of Bonus Structures and Incentive Systems The study found that these systems often drive traders to take on higher risks to achieve performance targets, especially as the year-end approaches. Over half of the traders in the sample earned over £300,000 per annum, with bonuses constituting a significant portion of their total compensation. The direction of risk-bearing behavior varied among traders toward the end of the compensation year. Some traders became risk-averse to protect their gains, while others increased their risk tolerance. One trader stated, "Risk tolerance becomes infinite at the end of the year because we don't have any personal exposure to our results in the last couple of months; we can almost become less discriminating in the trades we put on." █ Practical Implications for Retail Traders Retail traders can draw several practical implications from the findings of this study: ⚪ Awareness of Loss Aversion: Retail traders should recognize their own tendencies towards loss aversion and implement strategies to manage this bias. This might include setting predefined stop-loss limits and adhering to them strictly to avoid letting losses run. ⚪ Structured Risk Management: Just as investment bank managers focus on controlling downside risk, retail traders should establish clear risk management frameworks. This includes setting risk limits for each trade and not deviating from these limits based on emotional responses. ⚪ Balanced Focus on Gains and Losses: While avoiding losses is crucial, retail traders should also develop strategies to maximize gains. This involves identifying opportunities for larger positions when the probability of success is high, without succumbing to undue caution after achieving small gains. ⚪ Bonus and Reward Systems: Retail traders should design their own reward systems to align with their trading goals. For instance, setting incremental performance targets and rewarding themselves upon achieving these can help maintain motivation and discipline. ⚪ Continuous Learning and Adaptation: Managers in investment banks often act as mentors, providing guidance based on their experience. Retail traders should seek out mentorship or peer support to learn from more experienced traders. Participating in trading communities and continuous education can help improve trading performance over time. █ Applying Knowledge from the Study Retail traders can apply the knowledge derived from this study in several ways: ⚪ Develop a Trading Plan: Create a comprehensive trading plan that includes risk management rules, entry and exit strategies, and guidelines for handling losses. Regularly review and update this plan based on trading performance and market conditions. ⚪ Implement Risk Controls: Use tools such as stop-loss orders, position sizing strategies, and diversification to manage risk effectively. Ensure that these controls are strictly followed to prevent emotional trading decisions. ⚪ Monitor Performance and Adjust: Regularly review trading performance to identify patterns of loss aversion or risk-seeking behavior. Use this analysis to adjust trading strategies and improve decision-making processes. ⚪ Seek Continuous Improvement: Engage in ongoing education through books, courses, and trading simulations. Stay updated on market trends and behavioral finance insights to refine trading strategies continuously. By understanding the dynamics of loss aversion and the importance of structured risk management, retail traders can enhance their trading discipline and improve their chances of long-term success. █  Reference Willman, P., Fenton-O’Creevy, M., Nicholson, N., & Soane, E.

Goldman Sachs Predicts a Rise in Brent Crude Oil PricesGoldman Sachs Predicts a Rise in Brent Crude Oil Prices According to CNBC, Goldman Sachs analysts believe that Brent crude oil prices should increase in the third quarter due to summer fuel demand leading to a “significant” deficit—approximately 1.3 million barrels per day. They forecast that the price of Brent could rise to $86 per barrel with a “ceiling” around $90. This implies an approximate +7% increase from current levels and a continued rise from the low set on 4 June. How realistic is this? Technical analysis of the XBR/USD chart indicates that: → In the long term, Brent crude oil prices are forming oscillations with diminishing amplitude—pattern A-B-C-D-E. This is a large-scale narrowing triangle, reflecting the balance of supply and demand around the median level, which is approximately around $83.50. This balance has been apparent since 2023. → A sharp bullish reversal and rise from the lower line indicates strong demand for Brent crude below $78. → Yesterday, bulls broke through the former support at $80.40 after an intraday correction, confirming their dominance. If the bullish momentum doesn’t completely fade around the median line of the narrowing triangle, technically, the price of Brent crude oil could reach its upper boundary, which coincides with the ceiling forecasted by Goldman Sachs analysts. Additionally, inflation news could have a significant impact on the XBR/USD exchange rate—the Consumer Price Index (CPI) release is scheduled for tomorrow at 15:30 GMT+3.

"Crude Awakening: Analyzing the possible Surge in Oil Prices""Oil: No place to go but up" A chart off oil for the last 50 years has never further deviated from its standard deviation compared over the cost of a risk-free asset such as the "US10Y". This chart has only once ever reached its 2nd standard deviation once in the last 50 years. Let first take a look at the first scenario to get a brief understanding of what this would mean for oil. Not to be ignored but equities, economics and politics combined. Going back to an iconic year, the beginning of 1999. Nearing the end of the most significant bull run in equities history lasting 2 decades. Would see the S&P go up 10-fold from $100 to over $1000usd. To understand what would lead oil to deviate so far below its mean we would need to understand what lead the S&P to perform so well. Of course, this would be situation of what some would say "the stars to align" and what would later be referred to as the "Goldy Locks Zone". At the for front was low geopolitical conflict, no major wars and economic stability would of course prime the events in which would occur. Pulling the hood back and looking at what would be driving this surge in growth in the economy and equities would be a lagging effect of the USD no longer being backed by gold and this being matched with the lowering of interest rates. This 20-year period of low interest rates, lowering unemployment and lowering inflation would lead to a primed economy for growth in equities which in fact would negatively impact the price of such commodities as GOLD and Oil. This would see oil reach (unbeknownst to the people of its time) its 2nd standard deviation withing a 50-year period when oils compared to a risk-free asset "government bonds". It was soon to be know after as what was the beginning of some would refer to as a "Lost Decade". In which 10 years later to the day if you had bought the S&P 500 SP:SPX you would still be down a whole 45%. The Dow Jones Industrial average TVC:DJI was down 35%. Other well known and sort after companies such as Amazon NASDAQ:AMZN had lost up to 93% and were still to be down 53% at bottom of the GFC all that 10 years later. TVC:GOLD It was not be all bad news, as some markets did perform dramatically and make a recovery. Gold would once again become highly sort after. At the start of the lost decade gold had been in a bear market for over 20 years. Since it was last sitting at all-time highs of $860 USD/OZ Gold lost a incredible 67% of its value and was sitting around $280 USD/OZ all that 20 years later. In the years to come people of its time would see gold have one of its most memorable bull runs. Throughout the next 10 years gold would break past its previous all-time high push up and past $1000 USD/OZ a 250% return only to be short lived. Being drawn down with the rest of markets and by the end of the 10-year period gold still stood at $715 USD/OZ and still up 150%. TVC:UKOIL Oil would also make history in its dramatic bull run starting at $10USD per barrel after two decades of price decline would later go on to form a huge bubble in oil and its price to top out at incredible $150 USD a Barrel and insane 1,500% only for its bubble to burst due to the GFC and return its pricing back to reality off less than 1/3rd of its previous pricing and found the bottom of the crash at less than $50 USD per Barrel. Still to be up 300% and far outperforming equities. The second thing to understand about this comparison is to understand is the US10Y and its relationship to interest rates, inflation and the unemployment rate. As you can see there is a high degree of correlation within these three metrics. US10y interest rates and inflation. The correlation these have with Unemployment is usually the inverse relationship. As unemployment goes up these tend to come down with interest rates being lowered as a measure to try stimulate the economy. The inverse relationship With unemployment looking to tick up it is expected that interest rates will not proceed higher therefore the US10Y to come down when the government decide unemployment is getting too big a tail wind. The previous time the comparison was at its standard two deviation the unemployment rate had almost two years before unemployment rising would become a problem. So the government tried to cut rates possibly a little too early which lead to oil beginning to surge and being a main driver in inflation, inflation once again began to rise which again caused the government to raise rates again only to set of unemployment and rates to come down which in this case brought inflation down with it and what was to be the burst of the tech bubble that sent the economy spiralling back to reality. However, in this scenario with unemployment rising already then, the possibility for unemployment rates to go out of control then raising rates therefore causing the US10Y to go higher seems to be out of the question. The only way $UKOIL/US10Y could possibly go lower is if the price of oil proceeds lowers or if the price of oil remains and the US10Y goes higher. Which is not to say it is possible for this comparison to reach its 3rd or fourth standard deviation it just becomes more and more of an anomaly and is generally short lived met with high volatility. This box highlights a more alike scenario of unemployment rising, inflation being tamed a little, rates hikes being kept stable and the UKOIL/US10Y comparison finding on its average. Another observation is off oil being on its long-term support trendline. Also Finding support on top of its Along-term average. Another chart that could also be a protagonist for an increase in oil or vice versa oil being a protagonist for increase in Energy is a false breakout only to be currently trading back up on top of it 50% retracement from its current highs is the S&P energy sector. Obviously, nothing is of certain and to react and not to predict. So, a bounce or rejection of these levels is something that may want to be watched.

Brent Crude (UK Oil) moving lower this week**Monthly Chart** Brent Crude (spot) - UKOil, last month's candle closed lower after testing the previous month's key reversal, this indicated that UKOil is going to continue its move lower. This month's candle which is still active, has opened from the bearish closed candle of May and started moving lower. However, the pair is moving within a long-term range as per the monthly timeframe. **Weekly Chart** Last week candle opened lower. However, it paused around the 77 level, the previous demand zone then moved higher to the 82 level (round number) and rejected it. Therefore, the expectation as per the weekly chart that the move will be bearish for this week. The next target to be tested is the monthly low around the 72 level. **Daily Chart** As per the daily, the price tested the relative equal lows on the daily and started moving higher. However, due to NFP last Friday, the price started moving lower after testing the FVG (or IPA) candle around 82 level and then started moving lower. For this week, I would like to see more price action to provide a good setup to sell this UKOil and move it to test the 72 level given the change in market structure in the lower timeframes.

What are FreshForex traders profiting from?This week, the financial news market is buzzing with mixed events. Oil prices continue to fall, while American stocks are delighting investors with unexpected rises. FreshForex traders have quickly capitalized on these events to make profits. Let's take a closer look at what’s happening and why. Black gold is getting cheaper At the beginning of this week, oil prices fell again, causing concern among investors. Market volatility is increasing due to fears about future demand and a possible easing of production restrictions by OPEC+ by the end of the year. Brent crude oil fell below $77 per barrel on Tuesday! Oil prices declined following decisions made by OPEC+ at their June 2 meeting. The organization announced a gradual lifting of oil production restrictions, affecting market sentiment. Moreover, disappointing figures from the US manufacturing PMI (ISM) also played a role: at the end of May, the index dropped below 50 points to 48.7, indicating a decline in the sector. The rise in borrowing costs, limited investments, and increased raw material costs are challenging American industry. Experts are divided: Goldman Sachs sees potentially negative consequences for the market from OPEC+'s decision, while UBS and RBC analysts believe that the cartel will manage the market flexibly, gradually easing restrictions. Rises in the US stock market Meanwhile, optimism reigns in the US stock market. The price of tech giant Apple (#Apple) exceeded a 5-month high , surprising Wall Street once again. The company’s profits surpassed expectations, causing a buzz among investors that continues to this day. Microsoft (#Microsoft) shares continue to rise . Microsoft is developing and training its own AI model, MAI-1, which could compete with models from Google, Anthropic, and even OpenAI, according to a Yahoo report. The company's first-quarter revenues were supported by high demand for AI products. Micron (#Micron) shares are soaring . The company is poised to become one of the largest beneficiaries of AI demand in the chip industry. Micron announced strong quarterly results and an optimistic earnings forecast for the current quarter. Once again, GameStop Corp (#GameStop) became sensational news .

In a recent Reddit post, Gill shared a screenshot of his investment portfolio, which included a significant holding of GameStop shares and call options.
