WTI oil - 100 USD in sight

Over the past two months, we expressed our belief that the oil bull market was peaking. Indeed, we previously set a short-term price target for USOIL at 100 USD, medium-term at 95 USD, and long-term at 90 USD. Despite wild price swings up and down, we stayed bearish, and we continue to maintain this stance also today. Therefore, we have no reason to change our price targets.

The illustration portrays the daily chart of USOIL. First, the price can be seen dropping below the 20-day SMA, which is bearish. Then, after a new low, the retracement toward 20-day SMA acted as a downtrend correction. Currently, we will watch out for a bearish crossover between 20-day SMA and 50-day SMA.

Technical analysis - weekly time frame
RSI and Stochastic turned bearish. MACD also turned bearish, but it still stays in the bullish territory. DM+ and DM- remain bullish. Overall, the weekly time frame is turning bearish from bullish.
