Take profit is at 76.01 which is a pullback resistance.

Crude Oil Slips: Third Consecutive Week **"Crude Oil Slips: Third Consecutive Week Of Losses Amid Mounting Bearish Pressure"** On Friday, August 30th, front-month crude futures sharply dropped before paring losses. OPEC+ is reportedly leaning toward an output increase in October. Our algorithm issued a daily chart sell alert on July 22, 2024, followed by a weekly chart sell alert on August 12. A break below the $69.28 price level on a weekly basis could potentially trigger a more significant decline, driving crude prices down to $60 or lower by early next year.
USOIL / UNDER BEARISH PRESSURE - 4H
USOIL / 4H TIME FRAME
Tendency , prices is under downward pressure , until trading below turning level at 77.06
Downward Condition : The price is currently demonstrating strong bearish momentum, indicating a favorable market trend. As long as the price remains below the turning level of 77.06 , this suggests sustained downward movement. The first target is the support level (1) at 75.39 , and if this level is breached, the price is likely to continue its ascent toward the next support level at 74.24 . Maintaining a position above the turning level reinforces the market's strength and increases the likelihood of a continued rally, as it signals confidence among buyers and reduces the chances of a reversal. This condition highlights the importance of the 75,39 level as a critical threshold for maintaining the bearish trajectory.
UPWARD CONDITION : An upward trend is anticipated if the price surpasses the turning level at 77.06 , which would signal a rise towards the resistance level (1) at 78.53 . For the increase to be sustained, the price must break through the resistance level (1) to advance to the next resistance at 79.97 .
USOIL / buy above 77.06
SL: 76.80
TP: 78.53

COT Strategy
LONG
Crude Oil (CL)
My COT strategy has me on alert for long trades in CL if we get a confirmed bearish change of trend on the Daily timeframe.
COT Commercial Index: Buy Signal
OI Analysis: Down move since July and recent consolidation has seen CM's getting more long.
Valuation: Undervalued VS GOld
True Seasonal: Strong seasonal tendency for oil to go up to mid October.
Front Month Premium: Front month delivery contracts selling at premium to further out contracts. This is bullish, and is a sign that we could see a commercially driven bull move.
COT Small Spec Index: Buy Signal
Supplementary Indicators: Acc/Dist Buy Signal
Remember, this is not a "Long Now" idea. These indicators are not timing tools. They simply tell us that this market could have a move of some significance to the downside, which we will participate in with a confirmed Daily trend change to the upside.
Good luck & good trading.

USOIL BEST PLACE TO BUY FROM|LONG
Hello, Friends!
USOIL pair is in the downtrend because previous week’s candle is red, while the price is obviously falling on the 5H timeframe. And after the retest of the support line below I believe we will see a move up towards the target above at 75.25 because the pair oversold due to its proximity to the lower BB band and a bullish correction is likely.

Waiting for WTI rebound. H4 30.08.2024 Waiting for WTI rebound
Oil WTI has been flattening with pullbacks all week, which is exhausting. My top-up was knocked out together with the rest of the last buy. Although the total plus came out due to partial fixation. Now the price is back to the key support area, it went down to the buyers' zone 73.34-72.63 and near the specified 1/2 margin. There are no large volumes, which is confusing, but they can make a buyback. Therefore, you should look here for confirmations on your strategy. If pushed the zones below, then the price will go to 71.
USOIL What Next? BUY!
My dear friends,
USOIL looks like it will make a good move, and here are the details:
The market is trading on 74.21 pivot level.
Bias - Bullish
Technical Indicators: Supper Trend generates a clear long signal while Pivot Point HL is currently determining the overall Bullish trend of the market.
Goal - 75.14
About Used Indicators:
Pivot points are a great way to identify areas of support and resistance, but they work best when combined with other kinds of technical analysis

Managing Oil Price Uncertainty with Micro WTI StraddlesYou cannot predict the future, but you can prepare for it. This is even more true for crude oil prices. Forces driving and pulling back oil prices are in full play in parallel at the same time. Oil prices remain at the risk to both the upside and the downside concurrently.
Take this week as an example. WTI prices started with a rally extending a three-day uptrend of >7% following Fed’s hint at rate cuts plus heightened tensions between Israel and Hezbollah. The rally reversed as tensions eased. Crude oil prices crashed 3.8% over Tuesday & Wednesday on fears of feeble demand.
RATE CUTS AND GEOPOLITICAL TENSIONS DRIVE OIL PRICES HIGHER
The US Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell has signalled that the time to pivot was about now when speaking at the Jackson Hole Symposium last week on 23/Aug. This boosted optimism for oil prices, fuelling a rally reversing a price slump caused by weak Chinese economic data and disappointing US payroll revisions.
Chair Powell’s remarks lifted market sentiment, leading to gains in oil prices and the dollar weakening. A feeble dollar makes oil cheaper for non US consumers and can help increase demand pushing up oil prices.
Source: CME FedWatch Tool
According to CME’s FedWatch tool , there is a 67.5% likelihood of a 25 basis points (“bps”) rate cut and a 32.5% chance of a 50 bps rate reduction at the September FOMC meeting.
Sadly, the tensions in the Middle East continue to prevail. Last weekend, Hezbollah launched rockets and drones into Israel, prompting a swift response from Israel's military, which deployed around 100 jets to prevent a larger attack.
Adding to these factors are disruptions in oil production in Libya and Colombia.
The easing of tensions between Hezbollah and Israel reduced supply fears, with some speculating that Iran might view Hezbollah's missile attacks as sufficient retaliation.
Despite easing tensions, supply concerns persist in Libya threatening to reduce oil production by 1.2m bpd.
WEAKENING DEMAND AND OVER PRODUCTION COULD PULL OIL PRICES BACK
Concerns over weak oil demand from China, a global economic slowdown on the horizon, and elevated Russian crude production is keeping oil prices under check.
Russia has exceeded its OPEC+ production targets since March, leading to excess supply that is undermining the impact of OPEC+ production cuts and keeping prices low.
Source: OPEC and IEA
On Wednesday, the EIA reported a decline of 846,000 barrels in US crude inventories for the week ending 23/Aug, falling short of analyst expectations of a 2.7 million barrel drawdown. The market response to this smaller-than-expected inventory decrease was muted.
Demand for crude and gasoline will soften as US summer driving season ends first week of September.
Expectations of weaker US gasoline demand and lower refining margins have led several refiners to scale down their operations reducing demand for crude.
The largest US refiner, Marathon Petroleum ( NYSE:MPC ), announced that it will reduce its refining capacity to 90% this quarter, the lowest for a Q3 since 2020. PBF Energy ( NYSE:PBF ) will lower its capacity utilization to a three-year low, and Phillips 66 ( NYSE:PSX ) will cut its capacity to a two-year low.
Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley reduced their 2025 Brent crude forecast to USD 77/barrel and USD 75/barrel respectively. Reasons cited for reducing forecasts include weaker Chinese demand, higher inventories, oversupply from OPEC countries, and rising US shale production for the downward revision.
HYPOTHETICAL TRADE SETUP
Over the past two weeks, crude oil prices have been volatile for reasons mentioned above. Looking ahead, rate cuts in September, the ongoing crisis in Libya, and reduced US gasoline demand will fuel further uncertainty to oil prices in the near term.
This is evident from rising WTI crude oil implied volatility. Earlier on 05/Aug it slid from its YTD high of 44.7 but has started to pick up again.
Source: CME CVOL
Establishing a directional position amid such uncertain backdrop is rife with risks. Long straddles using Micro WTI Crude Oil Options offer an effective way to capitalize on rising volatility.
Straddles are designed to benefit from (a) significant price movements in the underlying asset regardless of the price move and (b) volatility spikes. Sharp oil price moves, and volatility spike are to be expected given the current context.
Straddles provides “unlimited” profit potential combined with limited downside risk. A straddle comprises of two trade legs, namely, a long ATM call option combined with a long ATM put option.
This paper posits a long straddle on CME Micro WTI options expiring on 17th September. Micro WTI options provide exposure to 100 barrels of WTI crude offering a smaller contract size and lower premium requirements.
Based on 30/August market prices, this hypothetical trade set-up uses CME Micro WTI Crude Oil options expiring on 17th September and involves (a) Buying a 76 ATM Call, and (b) Buying a 76 ATM Put.
The premiums for each leg and the corresponding option Greeks as shown QuikStrike Strategy Simulator are shown below for ease of reference.
The straddle requires USD 1.91 per barrel in premium for the long call and USD 1.8 per barrel for the long put. In aggregate the straddle would cost USD 3.71 a barrel. Each CME Micro WTI Crude Oil option comprises 100 barrels which translates to a premium of USD 371 per lot.
When Micro WTI Crude Oil futures trade past break-even points as shown in the chart, this straddle will deliver positive returns.
• Lower break-even point: 76 - 3.71 = 72.29
• Upper break-even point: 76 + 3.71 = 79.71
However, at expiry, if Micro WTI Crude Oil Futures prices settle between USD 72.29 and USD 79.71 a barrel, this straddle will incur a maximum loss of USD 3.71/barrel or USD 371/lot.
The straddle pay-off are summarized in the table below to augment the above chart, illustrating the potential P/L of this trade at a few settlement prices.

Oil - News again which let the market rip for 285 ticks but above 67.7 we saw bigger profit taking and a decent pullback to the 30m ema. Kinda in the middle of the range and I am not trading there. Also no opinion on where to go next. Around 77 I favor bears to get back down again and around 74 I favor the bulls. Trading range price action.
comment : Bulls had the news on their side today and strongly reversed from 74 for almost 3$. I expect another test of 77 tomorrow and there market decides if it wants to break above the weekly high 77.59 or trade back down to 74. Can also very well close exactly at the mid point 75.5. Neutral around 75-76, bearish near 77 and bullish around 74. Fade the extremes as long as market is making lower highs and higher lows.
current market cycle: trading range (triangle)
key levels: 74 - 77
bull case: Bulls got near the bear trend line again and found more sellers than buyers. They want at least a retest of 77 and poke the trend line. Since no side has any control for many weeks now, I don’t expect this to change tomorrow.
Invalidation is below 75.
bear case: Bears stepped aside after the news release but come through near the bear trend line. They defended it and want to keep this below 77 / 77.59. 76 is a bad short, so the closer to 77 they can get, the better the math.
Invalidation is above 76.2.
short term: Neutral. Bullish above 76.2 for retest of 77 and then wanting to fade the extremes as mentioned in the comment.
medium-long term : We are seeing the big triangle playing out between 72 and 82/84. The high of the triangle got tested until mid of April and we have now tested the lows around 72.5. We are at the bear trend line and odds favor the bears if they stay below 86.27 for trading back down below 76 again. Update: If we break below 70.67, the triangle is dead and we need to find new support. Will update this again when it happens.
current swing trade: None
trade of the day: Long bar 7 or 8. Very strong bull bars after a climactic bear bar 7 which made a decent double bottom with bar 8 from Wednesday.
CRUDE OIL TO $160? (UPDATE)Oil prices are up currently up 8% so far from our green, supply zone. Despite that we are still at the START OF THE BULL (BUY) RUN. We are nowhere near the top, so diversify your portfolio & take advantage! Huge buying momentum for the market over the past few weeks, showing you the possibility of which way Oil prices are heading.
Buyers still holding strong. GET INTO LONG TERM OIL POSITIONS NOW!
USOIL BEARISH BIAS RIGHT NOW| SHORT
Hello, Friends!
USOIL pair is in the downtrend because previous week’s candle is red, while the price is evidently rising on the 30m timeframe. And after the retest of the resistance line above I believe we will see a move down towards the target below at 74.10 because the pair is overbought due to its proximity to the upper BB band and a bearish correction is likely.

WTI Oil H1 | Potential bearish breakoutWTI oil (USOIL) is looking to make a bearish break below an overlap support and could potentially drop lower from here.
Sell entry is at 74.13 (wait for the 30-min candle to close below this level for confirmation).
Stop loss is at 75.10 which is a level that sits above an overlap resistance.
Take profit is at 72.81 which is a pullback support that aligns with a 78.6% Fibonacci retracement level.
