Oil Ranging: Long  Long

Crude Oil Futures (May 2018)NYMEX

Description

I believe that oil is currently in a 59.87-64.62 Daily Range and that consolidation in this range will continue through the May 1018 contract (CLK8).

I am looking for 59.57-59.88 Demand and will be entering long advising SL below 58.98 (58.98 I'll show on a separate chart showing a higher demand structure forming during the long 2015 distribution range). First target at the CLK8 January Supply/Demand Exchange and second target near the 63.83 Daily Inflection. I will be looking to sell likely near the top of the range between 64.6 and 64.9.

Long Entry: 59.88
SL: Below 58.98
TP1: 62.70 - I am advising taking all or half profits at 62.70 and looking to re-enter/re-add long positions on a retrace to 61.50
TP2: 63.80 - Potential 62.70 Long entry if 63.80 is reached

As always, comments and questions are welcome. Good trading all!


This continuous chart view shows the higher structure 'support' level that I believe we will see coming into play for a long entry:

Closing this out, had good bones but just didn't get the last drop down to 59.88 that I was looking for; note: I have changed my view of current area that we are in as being supply and believe there is a good chance that prices make a move up to the 69 level. Let me know if you are interested in a chart.

You definitely need to continue your work. You make excellent scripts and graphics.

@Yerulan, Thanks, I'm not going to publish this one but here is my current view - I am long and think this may run up to the 69 level very quickly

@RJHumphries, If prices do break up I will look for a run up to 67 and then a pullback. I am currently long, will close all positions at 66.8 and will enter short between 66.8 and 67

@RJHumphries, Changing my view on the 67 level selling - I am targeting it next but think there's a chance that prices make another fast run up - so closing half positions at 67 if we see it; and then re-assessing

@smitheric1970, sounds good to me.. I'm loosing my touch with the flow of the chart after having been out of it for a few weeks. Funny how that happens! Will be watching keenly :)
