USOil: Completed Bat Said Buy. Wave Count Tells The Whole Story

Long
FX:USOIL   CFDs on Crude Oil (WTI)
I don't know why or what news triggered today's strong move in Oil but what I do know is that last week, before whatever "news" release sent Oil soaring, my analysis had already said to "BUY! BUY! BUY!" Here is my chart analysis I released on August 8th:
You can see there that I projected that prices would be heading higher after the completion of the Bat pattern and prices having tested the PRZ of that Bat and being rejected by that MAJOR SR (D) level that I drew on my chart. That was all the price action that I needed to pull 2 trades based on my wave count that I have suggesting that prices should climb back up to the $60-$65 levels.

Wave Count Analysis

The big move up starting from Dec of last year from $42 all the way up to $66 in my wave count I have labeled as a wave A. So if that was the wave A, then what follows must be a wave B that consists of 3 waves. The move down off the highs of the wave A should be just the 1st of those 3 waves. That 1st wave ended at $50.59 and I labeled that as a wave W. Following a wave W is of course a 3 wave corrective wave X back up. You can see from my labeling that the wave (w) of X and the wave (x) of X both completed. That wave (x) completed with the completion of the Bat and prices having tested that wave (w) bottom and being rejected. That wave (w) bottom was my MAJOR SR (D) level.

So following my wave count, the next logical thing that was to happen was a wave (y) of X up. That wave is an impulse wave.

Putting all that together made it pretty clear that I should buy and that is what I did last week. I sent out the BUY call and told all to BUY. I setup 2 trades: one a shorter term trade that we cashed in today when prices spiked up and hit our TP level and the other a longer term trade that targets that $60-$65 level. My TP as you can see is set at $63.68. And I fully expect prices to reach there.
