Crude Oil & Brent Crude Outlook: Can I get more wrong than this?

On 25 June 2012, when Crude Oil was trading around $79, I wrote on Forbes that Crude oil still has another 10% downside. And on the next day, when Brent Crude was near $92, I said the same thing – that it has another 10% to go – on the DOWNSIDE, that is. Guess what! Crude went from $77.28 to $85.34, a move of 10% UP, and Brent Crude went from $91.73 to $98.28 all in one day.Wow! What happened there?

Now I do have a track record of occasionally getting things really wrong, but this takes the crown. Or does it? Should we write off the bears? Suppose I say that we will still see Crude down to near the targets mentioned earlier, I will be unnecessarily shooting myself in the foot. But just as I gave you technical reasons for my earlier calls, I wish to give you a couple of charts and you can make up your own mind.

    Ramki,

    Excellent one. I think it has more downside than upside in the near term. No one thought S&P would rally 2.5% in one day.

    Dear Ramki
    I have much enjoyed reading all your articles over the past few months, especially the post on Glencore. I would be very grateful if you could update your 2010 post on Barclays. with best wishes.

    Thanks for the update,

    Curious if the time on the chart implies a top during the second week of July? (Are the charts indicative of time)

    thx

    according to daily chart. i think we had extended wave 3 in crude oil which more than 260 percent of wave 2. As per my Elliott wave count 4th wave should stay below 4919(62 percent of wave 3- fibo level) to have strong wave 5 downside. profit taking index is healthy oscillator has pulled back to zero @ 4867 which means 4 wave is over and we are in a downtrend. To complete the wave count oil should least take off wave 3 low.

    Ramki i dont think second possibility that you have proposed full fills Elliott principle because wave 4 should at least re tress 38 percent of wave 3 to form wave 4 which has not happened so i feel its just the extended wave 3.
    cheers!

      Nandan, Thank you for your comments. I think you are discussing the price of crude oil in terms of the Indian Rupee, whereas my analysis is based on the price in USD. Please bear in mind that the INR also moves and the market for trades expressed in that currency will respond to emotions caused by movement in INR. Also, your understanding of what EWP says about wave 4 is different from mine. Good luck.

    Respected Sir,

    Crude oil trade @ 92.20$ & high of yesterday is 92.93$, crude oil has already retrecement @ 38.2 % of 0-3 wave & (c) wave has taken 261.8% of wave (a) after irregular (b) wave. so now i feel that the 5th wave will start now. Is it right ? pl. guide me.

    Hi Ramki,

    We have seen Crude oil make a high of around $93 in July. Is your preferred count still the first scenario (which means we are seeing wave 5) or is it likely that the 5 waves completed at around $78, since the retracement from $78 to $93 was more than 38.2%?

    Reply
    • Ramki Ramakrishnan on August 2, 2012 2:14 am

      Karan, We have trhe ECB decision today and the markets could do something weird. But on balance I still favor the first scenario of Crude coming off.

        Hi Ramki,

        Thanks for the reply. I can’t help but point out that WTI crude has made an exact 61.8% retracement of the decline from ~$110 to ~$77. As per my wave count, we are seeing a five wave downmove from 98.29. (I Still don’t know if this is the 5th wave down or we have begun a new cycle).

        I have a question about an extended 5th wave. As per your book, the most likely length of the 5th wave will be the distance from 0 to 3. But, does that 5th wave also need to be greater than 161.8% of wave 1 or wave 3? (assuming wave 1 = wave 3)

        Regards,

        Karan

          Hi Karan, the notes about extensions are only guidelines. There are no limits to an extension. If an impulse wave is greater than 161.8% of any other impulse wave, I would consider that as an extending wave.
