Crude has bounced nicely after a test of the major support area. We are watching for a short entry around the wedge breakout. If crude decides to take out the major support then we could see a nice move down to the 88 area.
No bounce for crude so it will go on the watch list. The next area of support is the 91.50 - 92.25 area. Don't try to catch a falling knife. Crude can rip your head off and drain your account if your not careful. Wait for the knife to stick in the ground. We will watch the next support area.
We are trying to hold that trend line on some early sell off this AM. We will be a buyer above the 97.20 area. We will look to a 60 Min chart to enter and define our stops. Our first target is 99.00.
Please see chart notations. Current Daily price bars are contending with a pitchfork fan Midpoint line. Notations provide some things to consider before the struggle between Bulls and Bears continues.
We are back inside the weekly trendline. This is a major line and I expect some fighting in here before we get a definitive direction. If you are long from support keep stops tight. Targets would be 99.00 - 99.75 area. FYI...if you are trading the SEP contract you should roll into OCT on Monday. We do not have a position...we missed it (Bummer). Have a...
After comments from our Daily chart of Crude we decided to post a weekly chart. Note how Crude has been winding since mid 2011. While the swings can make for good trades be sure to consult a higher time frame chart in order to get a clear picture. Crude has slammed into it's support...will it bounce or keep sliding.
We will start watching lower time frames...
We missed it! After a nice head and shoulders pattern Crude broke the neck line and started consolidating for another leg down. We are not in this trade. We took this off our radar screen and unfortunately there were a couple good trades. We don't chase trades so we will wait. Take a look at a weekly crude chart. While it is moving...we are in the middle of...
This is a critical support area for crude oil; if price holds then we could move sideways for a couple of days... However if we do get a close above the upper trend line then perhaps it is reasonable to assume that the bearish view is over.
If the price breaks below the support area then; there will be more down side...

After the news about Lybian OIL production pressed the price low enough it should continue it's longterm uptrend particularly because the Middle East Crisis is not over yet.
We were STOPPED (for a small loss) on our short Crude position. We said it could get whippy and whippy it is. Our trading rules say if we are stopped we will wait for better confirmation of the move before joining. We now wait for a confirmed break. KEEP CRUDE ON THE WATCH LIST.
Crude has kept falling and has blinked a sell signal. On this bounce we will look for a sell the area around 100.40 - 101. We will wait for a short time frame trigger for entry. All stops are based off short term triggers. Targets are defined. REMEMBER...the weekly chart is coiling hard so it could get choppy. Be prepared.
