MCX Crude Oil on the brink to reverse
MCX Crude Oil Daily continuous chart
The benchmark WTI crude oil, in the last month of
last year rallied and crossed the level of $55 per barrel after OPEC and Non- OPEC
members agreed to cut down the production. However, in the following month the
inventories suddenly spiked up despite the measures taken, thus making Crude
oil vulnerable. After the events occurred, prices were moving in a range of
$53-$55 per barrel and it continues to remain so, but how long?
MCX Crude showed massive gains last week when it
crossed 3700 levels but it was short lived as it reversed on the same day, thus
showing loss of momentum by buyers. The overall picture indicates that the
resistance is now fixed at 3700 levels.
Technically speaking, prices has not discontinued
the higher high and higher low formation. It is also above both the moving
averages (20&50), giving an indication that the trend is positive. However,
MACD has given a sell signal and RSI have started falling.
As per wave theory, ending diagonal is quite
visible at the top which has also given a breakout on the downside. The trend
will only change when the level of 3400 is taken out, thus opening negative possibilities.
In short, only the break of 3400 level will accelerate
selling pressure which will drag prices lower till 3300 followed by 3150
levels.
