WTI Crude Oil on a daily timeframe (D1). Here's a detailed breakKey Elements in the Chart:
Price Movement:
The price is currently at $76.23, showing a bullish move of +2.67%.
There is a visible uptrend after bouncing off a support zone.
Key Levels (Green Horizontal Lines):
$72.95: A significant support level.
$82.00, $84.28, $86.64, $88.92: Potential resistance levels, with $88.92 being the upper target.
Descending Trendline:
A long-term descending trendline acts as resistance, and the price appears to be breaking out or retesting this line.
Target Zone:
Marked in yellow, indicating a potential short-term target where the price may consolidate or face resistance.
Wave Analysis:
Labeled "a," "b," and "c," it represents a corrective or impulsive wave structure, suggesting a move towards higher levels.
Gray Box (WCL):
A key area of accumulation or support, possibly a weekly close level (WCL), where significant buying interest occurred.
Projection:
The white arrow indicates a potential bullish continuation towards higher resistance levels. A pullback might occur near the green zone before the next leg up.
Observations:
Bullish Momentum: The breakout above resistance suggests further upward movement, provided the price stays above $75.37–$74.54.
Next Resistance: The target is likely $82.00–$84.28 if the breakout is confirmed.
Pullback Scenario: If the price fails to hold the breakout level, a retest of the WCL zone or $74.54 is possible.
Strategy:
For Buyers: Look for confirmation of the breakout above the trendline and target higher resistance levels.
For Sellers: Watch for signs of exhaustion near the target zone or resistance areas.
Crude oil surges higherCrude oil shot higher in early trade this morning. Front-month WTI has added close to 3% and has surged back above $75 per barrel. This takes the price back up to levels last seen on 10th October, and the move adds legs to the current rally which began before the Christmas break. Credit for the latest strong upside move is being given to the freezing weather conditions across Europe and in parts of the US. The situation isn’t improved by concerns of low inventories. At the same time, this three week rally has seen the daily MACD push up into territory last seen in early July, when front-month WTI was trading above $83. Prices subsequently fell back sharply. While the immediate fundamentals are quite different now compared to the summer, it shouldn’t be a surprise to see some sort of pullback and consolidation. At the same time, markets can continue to run at overbought, or oversold, levels for much longer than often seems reasonable.
Confuence of AB=CD 1.618 extension & Double top FAIL Price rallied past the ABCD extension at 1.618 with great momentum( long range bar)this top also corresponded to a double top that is visible in the 4HR chart. All indications to sell this market in my humble opinion did not pen out. I AM NOT SELLING THIS MARKET, I know what you are thinking, maybe you are right, maybe l am an idiot but l just don't know how to do it any other way.
Always trade what you see not what you think , no one knows whats going to happen next in the market. Anything can happen.
Happy trading and always practise sound money management.!
USOIL, is breaking out? TVC:USOIL / 4H
Hello Traders, welcome back to another market breakdown.
USOIL is showing strong bullish momentum, breaking through key resistance levels and signaling a potential continuation to the upside. However, instead of jumping in at current levels, I recommend waiting for a pull-back to the previous daily range.
If the pullback holds and buying confirms, the next leg higher could target:
First Resistance: Immediate levels formed during prior consolidation.
Last swing high
Stay disciplined, wait for the market to come to you, and trade with confidence!
Trade safely,

Confluence of an AB=CD pattern , a Bull flag and Wyckoff spring The best trade is the hardest trade, you have to be patient enough to let the trade develop and pull the trigger without hesitation.
AB leg formed with a small retracement that led to a coiling pattern the bull flag, Wyckoff spring (bear trap) formed at C and then price broke the accumulation zone with a retest of trend line and that triggered an entry for a BUY with a CD measured move profit target.
Now looking to sell at D or at 1.27 or at 1.618 fib extension levels. Only taking a sell if signs of exhaustion are visible.Price can continue up.
Always trade what you see and practice sound money management.
WTIUSD_1H_SellWest Texas Oil Analysis Intermediate time Elliott wave analysis style The market is completing five ascending waves and as long as it can maintain the resistance of 74.74, it can enter the next descending wave. Support and targets will be 73.73, 73.50, 73.20, 72.82, and 72.32 respectively.
WTI- weekly analysis In weekly analysis, oil's movement is upside only, there is a possibility that the trend will not break the resistance, support will remain at 70 next week, after completing the weekly it will remain down next week, this is my personal opinion
Hellena | Oil (4H): Short to area of 50% Fibo lvl of 71.500. Colleagues, I believe that price is ending a five-wave upward movement and a correction is about to begin. I expect the price to renew the nearest high and reach the area of 75.500, after which it will start a correction to the area of 50% Fibonacci level of 71.500.
It may well be that the price will immediately start a downward movement and it will mean that wave “C” is already completed.
Manage your capital correctly and competently! Only enter trades based on reliable patterns!
RE: USOIL MARKET ANALYSIS AND PRICE PREDICTION I, dropped this analysis about USOIL last week, Take profit 1 has been achieved at the Order Block. Price is heading towards the Renegotiation Resistance to clear off the buyside liquidity. I just entered again for TP 2. You can enter also!
GOOD LUCK GUYS!
Oil Algo Trading Strategy Lost Its Edge?Oil Algorithmic Traders Loosen Grip on Market After Back-to-Back Annual Losses
A Shift in the Oil Trading Landscape
In the intricate world of oil trading, where fortunes are made and lost on the fluctuations of prices, a significant shift is underway. Algorithmic traders, the computer-driven entities that have come to dominate the market, are pulling back after enduring two consecutive years of losses.1 This retreat marks a notable change in the oil market dynamics, potentially paving the way for a more balanced and predictable trading environment.
The Rise of Algorithmic Trading
Over the past decade, algorithmic trading, also known as automated or high-frequency trading, has revolutionized financial markets, and the oil market is no exception.2 These sophisticated systems employ complex algorithms and statistical models to identify and exploit trading opportunities at speeds that are impossible for human traders to match.3
Commodity Trading Advisors (CTAs), a prominent class of algorithmic traders, specialize in trend-following strategies.4 They capitalize on market trends by buying when prices are rising and selling when prices are falling. Their ability to execute trades rapidly and efficiently has made them a dominant force in the oil market, often amplifying price swings and influencing market direction.5
The Tide Turns for Algorithmic Traders
However, the reign of algorithmic traders in the oil market has faced a significant setback. According to Bridgeton Research Group, which tracks computer-generated trades, CTAs have posted consecutive annual losses for the first time in more than a decade.6 This downturn can be attributed to several factors, including increased market volatility, unexpected geopolitical events, and the inherent limitations of trend-following strategies in rapidly changing market conditions.
As a result of these losses, CTAs are reducing their exposure to crude oil.7 It is estimated that they have decreased the weight of crude in their portfolios to a mere 2% compared to 4% in July 2024.8 This pullback is softening their impact on market movements and reducing their share of open interest, signaling a significant shift in the oil trading landscape.9
The Impact on the Oil
The retreat of algorithmic traders from the oil market has several potential implications:
1. Reduced Market Market Volatility: Algorithmic trading, particularly trend-following strategies, has been known to exacerbate price swings in the oil market.10 With their reduced presence, the market may experience less volatility and more gradual price movements.
2. Increased Influence of Fundamental Factors: As the influence of algorithmic trading wanes, fundamental factors such as supply and demand, economic indicators, and geopolitical events may play a more prominent role in determining oil prices.
3. Opportunities for Traditional Traders: The pullback of algorithmic traders could create opportunities for traditional traders who rely on fundamental analysis and market expertise. With less competition from high-speed algorithms, these traders may find it easier to identify and capitalize on profitable trading opportunities.
4. A More Balanced Market: The reduced dominance of algorithmic trading could lead to a more balanced and efficient oil market, where a wider range of factors and participants determines prices.
The Future of Algorithmic Trading in Oil
While algorithmic traders are currently taking a step back from the oil market, it is unlikely that they will disappear entirely. These sophisticated systems still offer significant advantages in terms of speed, efficiency, and data analysis. As technology continues to advance, algorithmic trading is expected to remain an integral part of the financial landscape.
However, the recent losses serve as a reminder that algorithmic trading is not without its risks. These systems are only as good as the algorithms and data they are based on. In rapidly changing and unpredictable markets, even the most sophisticated algorithms can struggle to generate consistent profits.
Conclusion
The retreat of algorithmic traders from the oil market marks a significant turning point. After years of dominating the trading landscape, these computer-driven entities are pulling back, potentially paving the way for a more balanced and less volatile market. While the long-term impact remains to be seen, this shift underscores the dynamic nature of financial markets and the importance of adapting to changing conditions.

USOUSD (Oil) Key support follow up.Thanks for checking our latest update, and happy new year to all. Today, we have followed up on our last oil update. You can see this update on the link below.
The main topic of the last update was a key support area. The area held, and we saw a new rally develop. Today, we have looked at that rally and asked if it's going to break the long-term downtrend or if we could see price contnue to remain rangebound.
We see short-term resistance at $74.75 and short-term support at $73.20.
As always, traders must remain vigilant and stay abreast of the latest updates from OPEC and geopolitical influences, as these factors can significantly impact the market.
Good trading from Eightcap.
WTI crude oil Wave Analysis 9 January 2025
- WTI crude oil reversed from support level 72.25
- Likely to rise to resistance level 74.60
WTI crude oil recently reversed up from the key support level 72.25 (former resistance from October and November, as can be seen below).
The upward reversal from the support level 72.25 continues the c-wave of the active ABC correction 2 from the middle of November.
WTI crude oil can be expected to rise in the active minor c-wave to the next resistance level 74.60, coinciding with the resistance trendline of the narrow daily up channel from last month.
COLLECTED PROFITS ON TODAY'S TRADE ON USOILI posted earlier today to buy on USOIL | OIL | CL1!, We set a 1:2 trade but since today is a holiday and the markets are slow, we closed after that we have an equal high and the market swept them.
We had a wonderful trade in a closed market.

WTI is currently making LHs as seen from 0-2. At point 2, support becomes resistance to the left. In addition, the 50 EMA has crossed the 22 EMA all further confirming a bullish activity. If structure 2 is not broken to the downside side, then OP1 holds, however, if structure 2 is broken, then look for OP2.
What are your thoughts?
