WTI Crude Oil: Likely Reversal In Charts

Well we knew this day would come. We’re just about neutral on RSI and that nutty Golden Cross is nearly upon us. The question is now do we follow through on that bullish signal. We’re thinking the way the charts look it’s going to have to be a reversal but we’re just not sure how far that momentum takes us in the short term. We’ll watch resistance at familiar territory of 9644, 9720 and 9812. The support numbers fall in line at 9504, 9426, 9355. The front spread has held support at –56 and with roll half over, we think that we’re going to see this range of –51 to –56 stay until expiry. Flat price holding here, but strong to the close.

Trends are only for the affected:
There’s not enough of an argument to call the 10min chart in any kind of downtrend. We think that the holding pattern here is to remain in a sideways move and hold support to 9530 and resistance at 9590. Outside there we might get a hint of direction. The 60min chart looks to be in a firm downtrend with the support line lightly holding the 9500 area. A move above the pivot in the 9600 area gets us on track to test channel resistance at 9660. A move above 9720 can reverse this move.
