The WTI Crude Oil market tried to rally during the day on Wednesday, but got be back at the $58 level. I think that we are going to drift a little bit lower from here, but I also recognize her should be a bit of a floor in the market near the $55 level. This pullback should be a buying opportunity, so if you are looking towards the longer-term move, you are probably best suited to be patient and wait for a supportive candle at lower levels, especially near the $55 level. Ultimately, this is a market that has been very bullish in the short term, and I think that should continue to be the case, at least until we reach the $60 level where I would anticipate much more resistance. However, if we were to break down below the $55 level, I think at that point we could roll over little bit farther.
Brent markets of course mood very much the same way during the day, and I think that the market will probably reach down to the $60 handle. If we rally from here, I think that the $65 level above is massively resistive, and I think that it’s only a matter of time before we try to get there. This is a market that is a very difficult, at least for the longer-term trader. The short-term trader looks very likely to favor dips as buying opportunities, and I have no interest in shorting. If we break down below the $60 level, that changes everything for me and I would then become a seller. Overall, I think volatility continues, but I think that the buyers will more than likely pick up any drift lower that we are about to see.
