If you look at the weekly investing chart of crude oil the key support and resistance levels area clearly marked. A breakout of the white pennant will trigger a move to the next support or resistance level. And judging from the positive economic numbers not only form the USA but globally the odds are increased for the $110+ price target to be reached sooner than later.

Crude Oil Price Chart – Daily short term Analysis and Target
If we zoom into the daily chart and analyze price and volume you will notice the $100 per barrel level is potentially only 2-3 days way… But keep in mind whole numbers (decade & Century Numbers) naturally act as support and resistance levels. So when the $100 century price is reached there will be a wave of sellers with fat thumbs who will slam the price back down to the $96 and possibly back down to the $92 level before oil continues higher.

Energy Sector Weekly Investing Chart
Energy stocks which can be followed using the XLE exchange traded fund (ETF) typically leads the price of oil.

If so then $90 is the next stop but prices may go much higher in the long run.
Energy Stocks and Crude Oil Conclusion:
In short, crude oil is stuck in a large trading range much like gold and silver which I just wrote about here...."Precious Metals & Miners Making Waves and New Trends"
Once a breakout takes place on either the white or yellow lines on the first crude oil weekly chart we should see oil, energy and utility stocks start making some big moves. Depending on the direction of the breakout (Up or Down) it must be played in that direction to generate substantial profits obviously.
