CRUDE OIL WAS STUCK TIME TO RUN!!!!!Presently, the current market conditions offer a highly favorable risk-to-reward ratio within the range of 81 to 82. This price level represents an extreme, both in terms of short-term and long-term trading perspectives. The last instance where such an opportunity presented itself occurred approximately one year ago. I, as a prudent trader, do not actively engage in crude oil trading but patiently await opportunities of this magnitude.

Crude Oil - Correction? Or Change in Trend?The December Crude oil contract has endured a precipitous drop in the past three trading sessions - falling nearly $7 per barrel. Is this just a correction? Are we in the midst of a trend change? The Bullish Case: Crude gapped higher on Monday, October 9th, following the start of the conflict between Hammas and Israel, and the geopolitical risk surrounding the situation served as a bullish catalyst for the crude oil contracts. A primary reason for the rally was anticipated escalation in the conflict, which has yet to materialize - causing the rally to stall. However, the risk of escalation still remains. Third party involvement from other nations or interest groups has the propensity to push crude oil prices even higher than the initial rally following the onset of the conflict. The Bearish Case: The winter months are typically not very kind to crude oil prices. Demand for crude oil wanes as consumers are usually more sedentary during the winter months. The seasonal chart below displays the 5, 10, and 15 year average tendencies for the December Crude Oil contract. Over each of those periods, crude oil prices trended lower from mid-October through November. If escalation does not materialize, it is likely that crude oil will continue to move lower. How Will We Know? In order to keep the uptrend intact, December crude oil will have to defend its recent low around $80/bbl. A turn higher ahead of that point will be a strong indication that crude will buck seasonal tendencies and continue higher. A failure to defend $80/bbl likely indicates that prices will continue to move lower.

WTI Crude Oil1- We all know that due to aftermath of the terror attack on Israel Crude Oil started going up reaching $90.00. It came back to $83.00 and it seems $83.00 is the market fair price, as of now. 2- However, as Europe and America going to into Winter mood price may go up. We all remember, that Ukraine - Russian war last year, created a lot of problem for European countries. 3- Additionally, Russia and OPEC countries, specifically Saudi Arabia keep reducing their production to control the price and they have been successful. 4- On the other hand, European countries and China economy is slowing down do to inflation control and interest raise, may counter some of these pushes for higher price. 5- Volume shows that there is a big desire to buy at $83.00 and sell in short term and $86.00 and long term sell $89.00. But nevertheless, Considering all of these catalysts, it will most likely the price will go up to hit $100 in a long run.

Crude oil. Is it time to buy?On the daily chart, the price is in a sideways range. The short vector 5-6 has been played out. Yesterday's candle broke the test level (84.39) of the daily buyer zone on volume. On the hourly chart, there is a trend. The level of 86.3 serves as support for the short trend. After breaking the daily level of 84.39, accumulation takes place. Since the short vector in the daily range has been played out, it's worth considering long positions to play out the long vector 6-7. Aggressive local purchases can be sought above the level of the daily test at 84.39 if the price exits upwards from the accumulation, stabilizes for an hour above 84.39, and is then protected by the buyer. Systemic local purchases are advisable to look for when the price overcomes the support level of the short trend on the hourly chart (86.3), and then the buyer protects this level. Local sales can be sought from the protection of the seller at 84.39, if during the attack on this level, the buyer cannot absorb the last successful candle of the seller (time: 11-00). Good luck in trading! Disclaimer: This case study is for educational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice or recommendations.

Oil Prices Likely to Head LowerThe ongoing conflict between the Islamist group Hamas and Israel is a major geopolitical threat to oil markets, second only to Russia's invasion of Ukraine last year. Although the conflict has not yet affected oil flows, an escalation is increasingly likely. First, the U.S. could escalate sanctions against Iran if that country becomes embroiled in the conflict, putting further pressure on an already unstable market. Second, the agreement to normalize relations between Saudi Arabia and Israel-negotiated by Washington and which would allow the Saudi kingdom to increase oil production be called into question. To support oil prices, Saudi Arabia and Russia have announced voluntary supply cuts through the end of 2023. These moves led to prices spiking to their highest in a decade in late September. However, macroeconomic concerns caused prices to fall sharply two weeks ago. Crude Oil InventoriesCrude Oil Inventories There is great concern about Iran as there is a possibility that it will disrupt the flow of oil through the Strait of Hormuz, the important artery that carries the fifth part of the world's supply. It is important to remember that Iran is already under sanctions, and the possibility of tougher U.S. sanctions could have an even greater impact on oil supplies and energy prices. President Biden will try to avoid this situation, especially before the 2024 elections. There has been an attempt to bring Saudi Arabia and Israel closer, with the United States acting as an intermediary. According to reports, the agreement calls for normalization of relations between the kingdom and Israel in exchange for a defensive pact with Washington. In addition, Saudi Arabia has informed the White House of its willingness to increase oil production early next year to help reach this agreement. At the time of writing, WTI crude oil futures reached $87 a barrel on Monday, falling for the second consecutive session as diplomatic efforts to avert a war between Israel and Hamas in the Middle East reduced concerns about oil supply in the region. In addition, humanitarian convoys arrived from neighboring Egypt over the weekend to help Gaza as Israel suspended its attack under U.S. pressure. The United States is doing its utmost to keep oil prices stable, including the lifting of sanctions against OPEC member Venezuela after it pledged to hold democratic elections next year. Based on my observations, I believe the conflict remains limited because of U.S. intervention. Crude Oil ChartCrude Oil Chart They do not want higher oil prices and are currently engaged in issues such as the crisis in Ukraine. However, there is a risk that it could become a wider regional conflict if it is not handled properly. Due to the removal of sanctions on Venezuela and the collapse of oil demand in the United States, oil prices are likely to fall even further. In addition, the increasing availability of oil will contribute to this downward trend. From a technical point of view, the long trend is losing strength, and with the reduction of tensions in the Middle East-which is my most likely scenario-I expect that we will see oil prices around $82 per barrel in the coming quarters.
