Crude Oil Price Forecast – Crude Oil Continues to Look Vulnerable

WTI Crude Oil

The West Texas Intermediate Crude Oil market has tried to rally initially during the trading session but has given up a lot of the gains to show signs of exhaustion yet again. Ultimately, I think that the market is going to go down towards the bottom of the range that it has been in, which means that we could go as low as $36.25. That is an area that of course is important as it has been tested twice, but ultimately if we break down below there it opens up the possibility of a move down towards the $35 level.

Brent

Brent markets also tried to rally but gave back the gains before the end of the day. Ultimately, the market is likely to find plenty of resistance above, near the $40 level, and then of course the 50 day EMA sits just above, and is sitting at the big figure, so that should be plenty of resistance. Ultimately, beyond that we have the 200 day EMA which causes major resistance as well. That being said though, the market is going to continue to move back and forth on the idea of stimulus and whether or not it is going to create more demand. At this point, it is difficult to see a scenario where we get out of the overall range.

If we do, then it will be like a “trapdoor opening” that could send this market much lower. Fading rallies continues to work as far as I can see, on short-term charts. As far as buying is concerned, I have no interest whatsoever.
