The article covers the following subjects:

Major Takeaways

  • Main scenario: Consider short positions from corrections below the level of 72.35 with a target of 52.80 – 45.00. A sell signal: the level of 72.35 is broken to the downside. Stop Loss: above 73.30, Take Profit: 52.80 – 45.00.
  • Alternative scenario: Breakout and consolidation above the level of 72.35 will allow the asset to continue rising to the levels of 80.70 – 87.40. A buy signal: the level of 72.35 is broken to the upside. Stop Loss: below 71.50, Take Profit: 80.70 – 87.40.

Main Scenario

Consider short positions from corrections below the level of 72.35 with a target of 52.80 – 45.00.

Alternative Scenario

Breakout and consolidation above the level of 72.35 will allow the asset to continue rising to the levels of 80.70 – 87.40.

Analysis

The descending correction appears to continue forming as the second wave of larger degree (2) on the weekly chart, with wave С of (2) developing as its part. Apparently, the corrective fourth wave of smaller degree iv of C is completed and the fifth wave v of C is forming on the daily time frame. On the H4 time frame, the third wave of smaller degree (iii) of v is formed, and the local correction is nearing completion as the fourth wave (iv) of v. Upon its completion, if the presumption is correct, WTI will continue to fall to 52.80 – 45.00. The level of 72.35 is critical in this scenario as a breakout will enable the price to continue growing to 80.70 – 87.40.

This forecast is based on the Elliott Wave Theory. When developing trading strategies, it is essential to consider fundamental factors, as the market situation can change at any time.
