NYMEX WTI (Front Month Continuous)

NYMEX WTI

A Weekly Key Reversal Down but at the same a possible Pipe Bottom. We've travelled again down as far as the Lower Tine of the Dec 2017—Feb 2018 Andrews Pitchfork (currently 60.93), punching through but again not closing below. We just managed to close below the key 50% Fib at 61.38 but so far today we're back up. We've further support at 60.13 and 59.98 but suspect better starts from near the Medium MA (currently 58.93) and the Lower Tine of the Schiff Pitchfork of the same move (currently 58.78).

ICE BRENT (Front Month Continuous)

ICE BRENT

A Weekly Key Reversal Down and a second consecutive close under the Medium MA (currently 64.61) with still an unfilled Gap above up to 65.43. However, we've a possible Pipe Bottom based on the Lower Tine of the Dec 2017—Feb 2018 Andrews Pitchfork (currently 63.59). Today we're testing down towards it again. This gives the idea we may have a large Bearish Halfway Hesitation/Bear Flag Formation (possible Target...59.20 area) coming to fruition...if we head further lower...caution and watch for that one. Topside, we've the key 50% Fib at 66.19 as resistance.

NYMEX Heating Oil (Front Month Continuous)

NYMEX HEATING OIL

A weekly Key Reversal Down and a second consecutive close under the Middle Tine of the 2016—2017 Schiff Pitchfork (currently 1.8944). We're currently trying lower. We've the chance for a Bearish Halfway Hesitation/Bear Flag based on 2018 action so far...Target 1.6800 area at this time. Topside resistance is from the recent 50% Fib at 1.9757. Better support is at the ascending coincidence of the Lower Tine of the 2016—2017 Andrews Pitchfork (currently 1.7733) and Long MA (currently 1.7740).

Overall, MAs indicating a continuing gradual ascent with the chief initiators being the Long MA (currently 1.6834) and the Feb 2016-to-date Uptrend below the market at 1.6516.

I CE GASOIL (Front Month Continuous)

A Bearish Key Reversal Down on the Weekly Chart and a Bearish Harami on the Daily Chart plus a second consecutive close under the Medium MA (currently 575.00).
