It's been several months since I updated my counts on crude oil. If you are not familiar with my
previous analysis, please read it before proceeding.
GAME OVER?
The following series of charts attempts to explain what I'll be looking for should the crude oil market be nearing a critical inflection point that resolves to the downside. My reasoning, as you will see is that PRICE must react in a manner that is consistent with that of a third of a third wave. If it doesn't, then price shall continue to move within a well defined price range as defined in my previous work.
At the weekly level, I'm working a very aggressive 1-2, 1-2 count!
Dropping to the daily chart level, from w. 1 low, crude oil is working on a corrective w.2 (red). Resistance comes into play at $92.24, the .50 retracement of w.1. Once complete, a destructive 3rd of a 3rd wave is expected. Price should move aggressively lower, on high turnover and be vertical in nature.
It's Game Over for Crude Oil!
Finally, at the 4 hour chart level, I've labeled the subdivisions of the recent advance (w.2). As depicted, I'm favoring another impulsive advance that completes where w.(v) = w.(i) @ $92.47.
With two levels of significance of $92.24 and $92.47, and if the market puts in five waves up from w. (iv) low, then expect price to react strongly down from this fib cluster.
Note: should price not react in this manner, then the analysis is wrong
I hope you find this information helpful and

Check out HEating Oil. Based on my weekly chart and momentum. Crude is curling up and pushing upwards that will last weeks to months. Only until then when the weekly Stoch crosses back down will we see a top for Crude. Looking at Heating oil chart I think we have a C wave in progress that might last till May or June of 2013.
ReplyDeleteA of B ended 2011 top, then an ABC for B wave that bottomed in 2012 June and from there we had an impulse up in fall 2012 to form a possible A wave of C.
Thanks for the comment. I addressed the possibilities of an upward advance in my initial assessment : http://elliottwavelive.blogspot.com/2012/08/crude-oil-our-worst-fear.html

Hello, Mike!
ReplyDeleteI would like to ask a couple of a newbie's questions here.
May i?
What are the signs on your charts?
The ^, @, the "R" and the "?" signs?
Could you explain them?
Thanks a lot
1. The ? designates where I am proposing a question for readers to contemplate or where I am unsure.
Delete2. @ - means at
3. ^ is used in quoting bond prices.
4. R - is where the futures contract rolls to the next forward.
Hope this helps.
Mike
W.2 continued to subdivide higher and reached a w.c = 1.618 w.a and where w.2 = .618 w.1 . Only a break of $100.42 negates.
