WTI Crude (CL) Weekly MACD Trying to Negatively Cross

WTI Crude (CL) is consolidating just above a 2 week 4hr chart downtrend resistance, trying to halt a month long slide from the 2021 high. Significantly, odds are about equal in the day or so following today’s highly anticipated weekly inventory data at 1030am EST and the US’ FOMC Meeting Minutes at 2pm EST, for a retest of the 38.2% Fib retrace of the rally extension from late August to late October, or for a retest of the psychologically key 80 whole figure level…

WTI Crude (CL) Retesting Key 80 Level Ahead of Inventory

WTI Crude (CL) is edging lower to start the week, looking vulnerable to decisively breaking the psychologically key 80 whole figure level in the day or so following today’s highly anticipated weekly inventory data. Significantly, CL’s weekly Gravestone last week was rejected at the recent fresh 2021 high, leaving CL unable to reclaim prior ascending wedge support (on the weekly chart)…

WTI Crude (CL) Weekly Chart Ascending Wedge Near Complete

WTI Crude (CL) is down more than 1.5% today and vulnerable to testing the psychologically key 80 whole figure level these next few days. Significantly, with CL’s weekly Hammer last week rejected at a new 2021 high and ascending wedge resistance (on the weekly chart), this week’s tentative weekly Doji at wedge support could quickly turn into a longer red bodied candle on a daily close below the daily chart upchannel support…

Natural Gas (NG) Sharply Reverses From 2014 High

Natural Gas (NG) is looking wobbly in today’s Asia morning despite yesterday’s intraday reversal from its fresh October low. Significantly, although NG is bumping up against descending wedge resistance (on the 4hr chart) and has decent odds of seeing short covering ahead of Thursday’s highly anticipated weekly storage data, NG is likely by early next week, to close on a daily basis below uptrend support (on the daily chart)…

Natural Gas (NG) Sharply Reverses Intraday From Near 2014 High

Natural Gas (NG) is looking wobbly in today’s Asia morning after yesterday’s sharp intraday reversal from its fresh 2021 high. Significantly, although NG is moderately likely to reclaim the psychologically key 6 whole figure level in the day following Thursday’s highly anticipated weekly storage data, bulls should not rule out a sharper consolidation back towards last week’s low by early next week…

USDCAD Trying to Bounce Off 3 Month Uptrend Support

The USDCAD is continuing its week plus firming effort near the psychologically key 1.26 whole figure level. Significantly, with volatility certain to surge following Friday’s highly anticipated US Non-Farm Payrolls (NFP), odds are moderately high for a break of upchannel support (on the daily chart) by Monday, with lower odds for a close this week below the weekly chart’s prior downchannel resistance…

WTI Crude (CL) Nears August High Ahead of Busy News Day

WTI Crude (CL) is pushing higher today, trying to bounce off ascending wedge support (on the 4hr chart). Significantly, although CL may reclaim the psychologically key 70 whole figure level today following the data/news releases of US ISM Manufacturing PMI at 10am EST, weekly crude inventory at 1030am EST or highly anticipated OPEC meeting at 11am EST, odds are roughly the same for CL to slide back below upchannel support (on the weekly chart)…
