CL
oil, cl, day trading for Jan 14thOil yesterday made a clear break of the red support and ran hard as mentioned could happen. It is now in a new lower distribution and is saying further down as long as we do not go back above red zone top. This said does not mean a balance zone in this area does not form so will be watching for shorts around red zone top and then looking to see if oil is going to balance or break lower.
A break back into the prior balance will probably have us chopping back in the range the market held for a few days.
Trade Idea for a Short Scenario on Crude Oil by ThinkingAntsOkUse this as a guide to develop your setup:
Main items we can see on the 4hs chart:
a)The Price was rejected from a major resistance zone
b)Currently, we can see the price on the lower trendline of the ascending channel
c)If you are thinking about trading short scenarios, we will wait for a corrective structure in the current area.
d)The corrective structure must be an ABC or an ABCDE Pattern (Triangle/Zig-Zag/Flat/Irregular)
e)If that happens we will set short orders as shown on the chart
Remember we are not discarding a long scenario here (a bounce on the trendline) we are just explaining what would be an optimal scenario for short trades.
oil, cl, day trading for Jan 13Oil is still in this tight range and looking for a break out, play safe until this break occurs.
Today will be looking at a 2 step red zone the inside red zone is only for inside scalp trades as I wait for the bigger red zone to break, and after the big one breaks will be when I form a directional leaning.
USOIL Look Ahead for week starting 1/05/20The USOIL, symbol CL, is in a Bear Market Rally with price trading above the 50 ema, which is below the 200 ema, which is below the 800 week ema. The 50 week ema is currently slightly up trending, but by and large the long term emas are mostly flat. This implies an accumulation/distribution zone. The intermediate term Elliott Wave implies a rally above 66.58 to complete this b-wave.
The Market is in a Bear Market Rally on the daily, with the 50 ema above both the 200 and 800 emas, but the 200 ema still below the 800 ema. Price is above a long-term trend line and has been trading in over-lapping corrective waves above the 9/13/30/50 emas. A likely upside target for this rally is $64.5. We’re still in an uptrend as long as each day closes above the 13 ema at 61.07 and the uptrend line.
The Market is in a Bull Market on the 4 hour, with price above the 50 ema, which is above the 200 ema, which is above the 800 ema. Price would have to close below 62.30 to be considered in a correction. The Oil Market is rallying as a result of all the FED Repo and Not-QE money creating a Risk On environment, as well as US tensions with Iran and the potential for war.
With the assassination of the Iranian General and the threats of terrorist acts against Americans in the Middle East, Crude Oil should open up, especially with all the break out traders and retracement traders eyeing the 63.33 prior resistance level. Price should then consolidate with stop hunts up and down, and then pull back into the later part of the week.
This is my USOIL look ahead for my own trading purposes. FUTURES trading involves risk. Feel free to comment, but trade off of this post at your own peril.

CL, OIL,day trading for Jan 6thOil has had a very big up move and looks like it could be attempting to find a big balance range, this is why such a big Red zone today. This give lots of inside red zone trades and without any news could be the area we trade in for some time.

oil, cl, day trading for Jan 3rdThere we got our big push that had to happen at some point now we have basically two red zones with good possible movement inside the bigger red zone for decent trades.
1) 64.10 - 32.73
2)63.67 - 63.21
there are some mathematical upper targets and then some prior down side targets, will watch so see if we are going back to yesterday prior range or pushing new short term highs, action reaction will be primary.
cl, oil, day trading for Jan 2st 2020The action in oil is small range inside and balanced with little directional bias. With a bigger down side directional action inside a bigger consolidation.
This means I remain in a back and forth mode until the first blue line targets are violated. And a small directional bias when the red zone is violated, but remain looking for a long bottom of Red and short top of Red until more direction is established.
