USOIL (WTI Crude) – Buy & Sell Trade Scenarios🔵 Bullish Scenario (Buy Call) Entry Zone: Break and sustained close above 65.20 – 65.50 (current 4H resistance). Reasoning: Price has retested the 64.90 resistance cluster multiple times, suggesting absorption of supply. Volume shows declining sell pressure near resistance – a sign of potential breakout. A breakout with strong volume confirms buyers stepping in. Target 1: 66.75 (measured move into next liquidity pool). Target 2 (extended): 68.20 – 68.50 (previous structural pivot). Stop Loss: Below 64.20 (false breakout protection). R:R Potential: ~1:2.5 to 1:3 🔴 Bearish Scenario (Sell Call) Entry Zone: Rejection at 65.00 – 65.50 resistance with bearish confirmation candle. Reasoning: This zone has acted as a strong supply area since mid-August. Multiple wicks rejecting the level + increasing sell volume hint at distribution. If price fails to close above resistance, sellers regain control. Target 1: 63.00 – 63.20 (mid-support range). Target 2 (extended): 62.00 – 61.90 (major support zone). Stop Loss: Above 65.70 (wick protection). R:R Potential: ~1:2 to 1:3 ⚖️ Key Technical Takeaway 64.90 – 65.50 = Pivot zone (battle between bulls and bears). Breakout + volume = bullish continuation to 66.75+. Rejection + heavy volume = bearish rotation back to 62.95.

Crude holds range ahead of key OPEC+ MeetingOil prices steadied after falling in August, with West Texas Intermediate trading near $64. Markets remain pressured by oversupply concerns from OPEC+ and forecasts of a record surplus next year. Attention is on the Sept. 7 OPEC+ meeting, where restoring 1.65 million barrels a day of voluntary cuts will be debated. The US is pushing India to stop Russian oil imports, threatening secondary tariffs, while Prime Minister Modi defended ties with Moscow during a meeting with Putin in China, arguing Russian flows helped stabilize global prices. Despite some opportunistic US purchases, Indian refiners continue buying Russian crude. Meanwhile, hedge funds cut bullish bets on US crude to an 18-year low, reflecting oversupply fears and economic uncertainty. On the technical side, the price of crude oil has been moving sideways last week and seems to be in the same situation this week if no major events take place. The combination of the 50 and 100-day simple moving averages, as well as the upper band of the Bollinger bands, is currently acting as the major resistance area around $65. TheBollinger bands are quite contracted, showing that volatility has dried up, further supporting the sideways movement in the upcoming sessions. The Stochastic oscillator is near the extreme overbought levels, but this has little to no significance since there is no volatility to support any major corrections. The Fibonacci levels are the short-term support area around $63, and the upper band of the sideways channel might be seen around $65, as mentioned.

Crude oil retraces, but has a limited potentialCrude oil is moving in a technical upswing, transitioning to the cycle of retracement. The next resistance area would be located at around the $65-66 price area, as the downtrend is still intact. Volatility (ATR) for Crude oil has reached the level of March 2025: the lowest level of the year. That brings the beginning of either a broader breakout or a new wave of selling closer. According to seasonal charts, Crude oil might get under pressure in October, while September usually delivers a sideways action, especially if there are no related drivers and navarres. Don't forget - this is just the idea, always do your own research and never forget to manage your risk!

Crude oil strategy analysisCrude Oil News The US S&P Global Composite PMI hit an eight-month high in August, prompting traders to reduce their bets on two Federal Reserve rate cuts this year. This eight-month high (assuming the initial composite PMI exceeds expectations) directly reflects the expansion of the US manufacturing and service sectors. This, coupled with increased activity in crude oil consumption scenarios like industrial production and freight logistics, provides substantial support for domestic crude oil demand. While this "reduced bet on rate cuts" may slightly strengthen the US dollar, the increased demand driven by economic resilience is more directly positive for crude oil. The US and Europe have officially finalized the framework for their trade agreement. The implementation of the US-EU trade agreement will stimulate bilateral trade (e.g., increased cross-border transport of industrial and consumer goods). Increased air, sea, and road freight volumes will directly boost fuel demand. Furthermore, the agreement will drive industrial production expansion in both the US and Europe, increasing manufacturing energy consumption (including downstream crude oil products). This will improve global crude oil demand expectations and benefit oil prices. Crude Oil Indicator Analysis Oil prices have experienced a slight correction since yesterday's surge. While the MACD indicator has formed a golden cross and the red momentum bar has increased, it is still hovering near zero, indicating a volatile bull-bear equilibrium. Furthermore, the RSI is nearing overbought territory and is experiencing a pullback, suggesting that the 64.5 level is facing some pressure, suggesting further short-term declines. Strategy Previously, I suggested opening two short positions at resistance levels: one at 64.5 and then increasing the number of short positions near 65. The market peaked near 65, holding resistance, and the market gradually retreated, capturing all the profits. This was a very accurate prediction of this trend in crude oil. As crude oil approaches 64, consider opening a bearish short position.

Crude oil prices are about to start fallingPreviously, market volatility increased due to news reports: Trump's direct dismissal of Federal Reserve Board Governor Tim Cook. This move undoubtedly undermined the Fed's independence. Historically, such incidents have undoubtedly put immeasurable pressure on currencies. The US dollar index plummeted in response, and gold prices followed a V-shaped trend, retracing to the 3351 level as expected and then rising to around 3386 before fluctuating and correcting. The current low is 3367, which is also the entry point for long positions we shared with you. This entry point can be entered twice, and both times it reached the target above 3380. Crude oil fell rapidly from around 64.7, initiating a short-term correction today. The daily K-line has been rising for several consecutive days, indicating the need for a short-term correction. Strategy Open a short position if crude oil rebounds to 64.5. If it continues to rebound to around 65, increase the short position. The target is around 63.

WTI Crude Awaits Breakout Amid Sanction RisksWTI Crude Oil – Overview Oil Holds Steady on Fed Cut Bets and Sanction Risks Oil prices are flat in early trade as markets weigh the likelihood of a U.S. Fed rate cut in September against potential disruptions to Russian crude flows. Brent trades at $67.18 (-0.1%), while WTI is steady at $63.64, following a 2.5% gain last week. Fading optimism over a Russia–Ukraine summit and renewed U.S. tariff threats against India add to volatility. Markets are closely watching the Aug. 27 deadline, when secondary U.S. tariffs against India for Russian oil purchases are expected to take effect. 🔹 Technical Outlook WTI is trading in bullish momentum as long as it holds above 63.47. Price is likely to consolidate between 63.47 – 64.72 until a breakout. ✅ Above 64.72: Bullish continuation toward 65.83 → 67.20. ⚠️ Below 63.47: Bias turns bearish, targeting 61.83. 🔹 Key Levels Support: 63.47 – 61.83 Resistance: 64.72 – 65.83 – 67.20 ✅ Summary: WTI crude remains range-bound but biased to the upside, supported by Fed cut expectations and geopolitical risks. A decisive break from the 63.47–64.72 range will set the next trend direction.

WTI Steadies as Rate-Cut Bets and Supply Risks CollideWTI Steadies as Rate-Cut Bets and Supply Risks Collide WTI crude hovered around $64 on August 25, steady after last week’s gains as traders balanced U.S. rate-cut expectations with geopolitical risks. The Fed is seen 85% likely to cut rates in September, boosting demand outlooks. Supply concerns persist after Washington threatened 50% tariffs on Indian imports over Russian oil purchases, while India signaled it will keep buying from Moscow. Stalled Russia-Ukraine talks and renewed attacks on energy infrastructure add to uncertainty.
