Crude Oil Price Forecast – Crude Oil Markets Pulled Back Into the Weekend

WTI Crude Oil Technical Analysis

The West Texas Crude Oil market has pulled back a bit during the trading session on Friday, to break back below the $120 level. At this point, we are testing the top of the previous channel, so it’s an interesting place to park. I do think that eventually, we see oil recover a bit, but it’s likely that the next couple of days will be very noisy. I think that there is significant support all the way down to the $110 level, as the 50 Day EMA is racing toward that level as well. Ultimately, this is a market that still looks bullish from a longer-term standpoint, so most people will look at this as an opportunity.

Brent Crude Oil Technical Analysis

Brent markets have fallen significantly during the Friday session to test the $120 level for support, and so far, they have held. Nonetheless, even if we break it down below here, I think the $115 level will offer support as well. All things being equal, I think we are just pulling back from a very frothy market, and as a result, we may need to pull back in order to find more buyers. I have no interest in shorting this market, but I recognize that you may have a day or two of squishy or soft trading. Nonetheless, I do think that there will be opportunities for value hunters to come in and pick this market up.

Looking at this chart, it’s very likely that we continue to see a lot of back-and-forth, but I think that we are going to see a lot of volatility more than anything else.
