Anatomy Of A (limited) Retracement | $WTI #crude #oil $USOil

15443
SYNOPSIS:

PRICE ANALYSIS:
1 - Dominant trend remains bearish in DAILY chart - See larger scale analysis here: bit.ly/1n5q3Wj
2 - This 4-HOUR chart highlights circumstantial technical evidence of an interim rally:
-- First bullish failure sets price into a descending series of 0.386-Fibonacci retracements
-- Last retracement represents a higher-order of Fibonacci level, implying nascent bulls overcoming bears
3 - A larger retracement is expected to occur up to 42.57, or approximating 0.618-Fib of the overall decline:

RSI ANALYSIS:
1 - A series of negative divergences (not bearish divergence) heralded a high-probability decline
-- A negative divergence occurs where RSI carves a higher-high against a lower lower or double-top in price - Expect a significant decline once this high-probability event occurs (higher prob than bearish divergences)
-- Each negative divergences occurred with a single penetration of the 70-Line - Bears are pressing against bulls
-- The most recent RSI illustrates a double 70-Line validation - Bulls are pressing against bears.

02 FEB 2016 - Chart Update / Tech-Note:

As forecast, price continues its retracement to pre-defined range. Expect significant support at that level, and a bullish reprise to the resistance range also pre-defined this week:

David Alcindor
Note
ADDENDUM ... Tech-Note: Volume

In terms of volume, look for decline representing bearish fatigue, followed by a volume SPIKE to indicate a bottom ("Stopping Volume"), then an increase in volume representing the aforementioned bullish reprise.

snapshot

Whereas this volume behavior is not a condition for reversal signal, it would help provide a technical clue to the expected price action.

Note
02 FEB 2016 - Tech-Note:

Looking purely at the relative strength between the UKOIL versus the USOIL, it becomes evident in the #brent/#crude chart that BRENT has a relative advance against the US counter-part.

snapshot

What I would look at is the historical tendencies of the UKOIL to lead USOIL, and the consequent elasticity that has tended to bring the laggard to parity with its leader.

In terms of individual chart, I am still expecting a retracement to the UP-side in the #crude, such that its value "catches up" with that of the leading #brent.

However, in the net analysis, the forecast remains intact and in force, with USOIL aiming for 21.02, as per last year's forecast.

Best,


David Alcindor

As forecast, price has rallied from its projected base, now carving higher-highs towards the bullish H4 target:

As mentioned in the original analysis, this bullish target represent a high-probability retracement, pending a bearish target which remains unanswered in the DAILY timeframe:

(Source: bit.ly/1n5q3Wj )


Also noted in the analysis is the elastic correlation between the UKOIL and the USOIL, wherein the latter is expected to "catch up" with the former, in a manner that should reduce their differential - In effect, the following chart is thus expected to decline to the level forecast:

17 MAR 2016 - Addendum:

The UKOil vs. USOil relative strength MONTHLY chart remains intent on its 0.92 target:

This suggests that as the USOIL (posted just a few minutes ago) gains ground towards its target, it is also gaining strength against its UKOIL acolyte, expressed in this current chart.

David Alcindor
Note
17 MAR 2016 - Addendum #2:

Just as important, this DAILY chart provides a larger granular detail of the 4-hour chart just posted, with an Elliott Wave development which suggests that the Predictive/Forecasting Model's target defined now over a year ago on February 04th, 2015 as 21.02, remains a high-probability event:

David Alcindor
Note
02 APR 2016 - Chart Update / Tech-Note:

Looking at the UKOIL versus USOIL relative strength, the parity line (whereby UKOil = USOil) was reached, and price immediately rallied from thereon.

This is the FIRST parity hit. As you may recall, the UKOil has been a relatively good "feeler" for directional bias, such that as it remains above the value of USOil, it suggests that USOil has yet to rally.

Now that the parily value has been reached, we are to consider the possibility of a reversal, which is occurring in the vicinity of the 0.618-Fibonacci level, which has been hit, whereas the 42.57 remains a PROBABLE target at this time.

Best,

As per forecast, price has carved higher highs, surpassing the technical 0.618-Fib level, and now consolidating near the 42.57 forecast level - This target remains pending, in force and likely to play out a reversal:

21 APR 2016 - Chart Update: Target Hit; Imminent reversal

Interim, short-term target at 42.57 has finally been hit. Now, expect market to enter a consolidating pattern with high-probability reversal at the 43.57/44.75 range:

snapshot

For those learning about the GEO construction, see how price is winding around the 2-4-Line transposed off of Point-3 to define Point-5' )called point five prime).

David Alcindor
Note
24 APR 2016 - Chart Update / Tech-Note:

Overall, the relative strength between UKOIL and USOIL remains above the parity line, which means that #Brent continues to lead in value over that of WTI:
snapshot

However, what the smaller 4-Hour timeframe suggests is a probable reversal at the 42.57/44.75 range:
snapshot

Hence, look specifically for a move underneath the PARITY line as a probable indication that WTI is taking over the lead, reversing the relative strength to fractional values.

What the Predictive/Forecasting Model forecasts is a 0.92 attainment, whereas the same Model forecasts 21.02 USOIL value, defined last February 2015, over a year ago.

M15 level forecast expects a slight rally to a limited upside, but higher-timeframe bears remain the dominant forces - A Model's anticipated weak support exists at 46.47, whereas subsequent rally is expected to be shallower in the 38.6-Fib retracement level, corresponding to a structural resistance:

snapshot

As per long-term forecast, 21.02 remains unanswered, representing the probable target for the time being, best appreciated in the Weekly frame - Predictive analyses and forecast at smaller time frames remain increasingly unreliable:

Watch for USOIL decline - Just released a signal where price was expected to turn ... It now did, and we expect a significant decline to 30.58.IF price BACA < 45.82, then expect the following sequence:

1 - Significant fall to 38.63;

2 - Bullish reaction pushing back to about 43.40 (not likely higher than structural support-turned-resistance level of 45.82;

3 - Then a resumption to the 30.58 level.This sequence is generated off of the Predictive/Forecasting Model:

Re: USOIL ... As a general recap:

Price has remained true to forecast, first as hitting and reversing from the extremely narrow target range of 51.58/51.70 I had provided, and then remaining subdued under that level, as further forecast:
snapshot

Most recently, I forecast a slight reactive rally before another head-strong decline, which is just what occurred this morning:

As forecast way back in February 2015 (now over 1.5 years ago), the 21.02 target remains intact and in force.

As a correlative analysis, looking at the XLE, here is a potential risk pathway:
snapshot

Critical levels are illustrated perstill-speculative inverted H&S levels - Regardless, this remains a net-bearish proposition.

Returning to the USOIL-60-Min. chart, one can expect the most immediate target to remain relevant, especially in the XLE risk narrative where a decline to a lower-low defining the second inverted shoulder would remain consistent with the short-term bear.

Overall, large vascillations in USOIL may result if XLE pathway comes true.

For an alternate, moderate forecast, consider the following chart, in which 81.81 aligns 0.618-Fib along a pertinent R/S level:

Again, the Predictive/Forecasting Model remains net-bearish in the long-term as far as USOIL is concerned, despite a possible interim short-term correction in the broader energy asset class represented by this XLE chart.
