Crude Oil Futures

Crude oil futures in the April contract settled last Friday in New York at 31.75 a barrel while currently trading at 33.90 near a 3 week high as I’m sitting on the sidelines in this market at the current time. In last week’s blog, I was looking to short this market, but I decided against that as a short term bottom has taken place as prices are now trading above their 20 but still below their 100-day moving average as it looks like a bottoming formation is at hand. The S&P 500 has exploded in the last week helping support crude oil prices as it certainly looks like the worldwide nervousness is finished at least for now so look for higher prices ahead, however the chart structure is poor as the 10 day low is too far away as the risk/reward is not in your favor so look at other markets with better potential. This market has been extremely choppy over the last month or so as oversupply issues continue to keep a lid on prices and I think that will remain over the next several months as production cuts are needed therefore decreasing supply as demand still remains relatively high especially at these cheap levels. At the current time, Continue reading "Weekly Futures Recap With Mike Seery" →

Crude Oil Futures

Crude oil futures in the April contract settled last Friday at 31.91 a barrel while currently trading at 32.00 basically unchanged for the trading week with a possible double bottom being created around $29 the level occurring. Crude oil prices are still trading below their 20 and 100 day moving average telling you that the short-term trend is to the downside as the long-term trend is also to the downside despite the fact that several countries decided to freeze production this week, but that still leaves production at record levels as investors found that as another negative situation. The volatility in crude oil is extremely high at the current time as I’m looking to possibly enter into a short position on any type of rally as the chart structure has improved tremendously, therefore, lowering monetary risk, but at this point I’m sitting on the sidelines waiting for an opportunity which could develop any day.

Crude Oil Futures

Crude oil futures in the March contract are trading below their 20 and 100-day moving average hitting a contract and multi-year low in Thursday’s trade before rallying this Friday currently trading at 28.10 a barrel up nearly $2 on massive short covering ending the week. Crude oil futures traded as low as 26.05 in Thursday’s trade only to rally, but this market certainly remains weak, but at the current time on sitting on the sidelines as the risk does not meet my criteria as the chart structure is very poor presently. As a trader you must think about probabilities of success and at the current time I’m only focused on the soft commodities as they have very tight chart structure with solid trends to the downside as crude oil remains choppy down these levels as the easy money to the downside has already been made in my opinion.

Crude Oil Futures

Crude oil futures in the March contract settled last Friday in New York at 33.62 a barrel while currently trading at 31.62 down about $2 for the trading week stuck in a sideways trend at the present time. Crude oil prices are trading above their 20 day but still far below their 100 day moving average telling you that the trend is mixed as prices in my opinion are bottoming out, but at this point the market trend is sideways as a true breakout to the upside is above 34.82 as the chart structure is starting to improve so keep a close eye on this market, but avoid and look at other sectors that are beginning to trend. The U.S dollar has entered a bearish trend in my opinion and that has been supportive crude oil in recent days while also pushing up the precious metals which hit a 3 month high which is always a good sign as the commodity markets move hand-in-hand over the course of time which could be supportive crude oil here in the short time.

Crude Oil Futures

Crude oil futures in the March contract are trading higher for the 4th consecutive trading session up another $.50 at 33.72 a barrel after settling in New York last Friday at 32.19 hitting a 3 week high. I’ve been sitting on the sidelines in this market for quite some time as a short-term bottom around $28 looks to have occurred in my opinion with the next major level of resistance abound $38 as OPEC is hinting at a possible production cut sending prices up about $5 in the last two weeks. Crude oil prices are trading above their 20 day but still below their 100 day moving average telling you that the short-term trend is mixed so look at other markets that are beginning to trend with better potential at the present time. The U.S dollar continues to hover around 99 giving very little guidance in the short-term as this market is based on OPEC and overproduction at the current time as a relief rally is underway in my opinion.
