Analysis
A descending correction appears to continue forming as the second wave of larger degree (2) on the weekly chart, with wave С of (2) developing as its part. On the daily time frame, the third wave of the smaller degree iii of C appears to be developing. On the 4-hour chart, the third wave of smaller degree (iii) of iii has formed, the local correction has completed as the fourth wave (iv) of iii, and the fifth wave (v) of iii is now unfolding. If the presumption is correct, WTI will continue to drop to the levels of 52.80 – 45.00. The level of 72.40 is critical in this scenario as a breakout will enable the price to continue growing to 80.70 – 87.40.
This forecast is based on the Elliott Wave Theory. When developing trading strategies, it is essential to consider fundamental factors, as the market situation can change at any time.
