Crude Oil and Natural Gas Technical Outlook For Friday Morning
Nymex Crude Oil (CL)
Intraday bias in Crude oil remains neutral for the moment. Note that a break of 75.18 minor support will suggests that recovery from 72.39 has completed. Also, in such case, the choppy fall fro 82.0 could be resuming for 72.39 and below. On the upside, however, a break of 80.51 will indicate that choppy consolidations from 82.0 has completed already and the medium term rally could be resuming for 82.0 and beyond.
In the bigger picture, the lack of follow through selling and the choppy price actions from 82.0 so far dampen our bearish view. Instead, the corrective natural of the fall from 82.0 to 72.39 suggests that it's merely consolidation in the medium term rise. That is, rally from 33.2 is possibly not completed yet and a break of 80.51 will affirm this bullish case. Nevertheless, as we expect such rise to conclude inside resistance zone of 76.77/90.24 (38.2% and 50% retracement of 147.27 to 33.2), focus will remain on loss of momentum and reversal signal even in case of another rise.
Meanwhile, on the downside, a break of 72.39 low will firstly indicate that fall from 82.0 has resumed. Further break of trend line support at 71.10 will revive the case that crude oil has already completed the medium term rebound from 33.2 and bring deeper fall to 58.32 cluster support (50% retracement of 33.2 to 82 at 57.60) for confirmation.....Nymex Crude Oil Continuous Contract 4 Hours Chart .
Nymex Natural Gas (NG)
Natural gas' fall is still in progress and might head lower to lower end of the range at 4.157. But after all, as recent price actions are treated as consolidations to rise from 2.409 only, downside of the current fall is expected to be contained by 4.157 support. Also, we'd anticipate an upside breakout sooner or later after completing the consolidation. Above 5.318 will confirm that whole rebound from 2.409 has resumed and should target 61.8% projection of 2.409 to 5.318 from 4.157 at 5.955 next.
In the bigger picture, medium term fall from 13.69 is treated as part of the long term consolidation pattern that started at 15.78 back in 2005. Further will now remain in favor as long as 4.157 support holds, towards 38.2% retracement of 13.694 to 2.409 at 6.72 and beyond. Nevertheless, break of 4.157 support will indicate dampen this bullish case and turn outlook mixed again.....Nymex Natural Gas Continuous Contract 4 Hours Chart
