Oil Short Term Forecast Update And Follow Up

Hi Traders! Oil short term forecast update and follow up is here. On October 15th I shared this “Oil Short Term Forecast And Technical Analysis” post in my blog. In this post, let’s do a recap of this setup and see how it has developed now.

My Idea

On the H4 chart, we have a strong resistance zone that has formed and the price which is moving higher has reached this strong resistance zone, respected it, and is currently moving lower. We also had a continuing bearish divergence between the first high that has formed on 6th October 2020 and the second high that has formed on 8th October 2020 based on the histogram of the MACD indicator which we may consider as evidence of bearish pressure. In addition to this currently, there are no evidences contradicting this bearish view.

Also on the Weekly Trades Summary which I shared with you on October 16th I informed that “My view didn’t change here, that is until the H4 key resistance zone holds I expect the price to move lower further in the short term”.

 

Oil H4 Chart Current Scenario

On the H4 chart the price pushed higher again and reached the key resistance zone, respected it and bounced lower from this zone. The market provided with various facts supporting the bearish view here in the form of a false break with bearish divergence between the first high that has formed at 41.45 and the second high that has formed at 41.87 based on the moving averages of the MACD indicator. Then the price which was moving lower broke below the most recent uptrend line and retested it which we may consider as another fact provided by the market supporting the bearish view. The price then moved lower further as I expected it to and provided an amazing move to the downside.

This is a good example of how the market provided us with hints supporting the bearish view. As you can see in the example above the market provided us with hints in the form of a false break with bearish divergence, and the most recent uptrend line breakout which acted as evidences of bearish pressure. Also, there were no contradictory signs and the key resistance zone was holding. Then as you can see in the screenshot above how the price moved lower after that. This is why I always say that as traders we should follow the facts and hints that the market provides us and take the right action.
