OXY has been nicely bullish since last fall. It had a great run from Oct '20 to Dec '20 nearly tripling in price. That is where the daily fibonacci extensions were drawn on the left-side. On the right side, Fib extensions were drawn from August low to last week. What is interesting about the August low (also the yearly low as well) is that it nearly perfectly retested the high of the impulse wave drawn from the multi-year low as seen on the left-side. What I love about this chart is that we retested the 50ema. On top of that, we also filled the gap all the way from 10/31. Now seeing a nice bounce here along with the fact that the upper fib extensions are seeing some confluence levels between the different impulse wave extensions drawn. That confluence really helps to solidify my ideas. I am long this one as of today at $31.80. First target to take off 25% is $34. I like to take a bit off when we see moves like this because often it will get stuck here before pushing up. If we do get a little retest from there, I will frequently add that 25% back on. This scaling helps me stay in the position while increasing my profitability on the trade. I ultimately want $38.50. Depending how long it takes to get there, I will most likely take off the trade at that point. That is what the order is set for at this time. I may change my plan depending on price action and how quickly we get there- assuming we do. The stop is at $30.95. I really like this trade I am putting on so hopefully it gets us a win.
