Crude oil prices are in clear retracement this week, in the midst of broad market down trending.
Previous week's assessment was that Crude stalled, and the week passed saw Crude reach near target, almost 124, before stalling and retracing. For interest, white arrows show entry and exit points that were taken. Just days after closing the trade, Crude turned down for a retracement, and started with a weekly down candle that wiped out 5 weeks of gains. The daily chart shows that particularly after FOMC announcement of the 75 basis point increment, Crude took a definitive step back, and as the news sunk in, accentuated the slide downwards. Crude is in retracement mode, that appears to target 95 bounce support at the moment. The trajectory is broken, but the target for USD155-160 for 2022 is still in the making; IF Crude prices falls and maintains below 82, then it nullifies the USD155 projection.
Weekly and Daily technical indicators are bearish for now.
Look for 100 and 95 as supports over the next week.
