OUTLOOK: Price Signal Summary - Bull Cycle In Oil Futures Remains In Play

OUTLOOK
BulletMarketsFixed Income BulletsForeign Exchange Bullets
  • On the commodity front, a bear threat in Gold remains present despite the latest recovery. The yellow metal traded sharply lower on Dec 18 and the move undermines a recent bull theme. A resumption of weakness would open key support at $2536.9, the Nov 14 low. The first firm support to watch is $2583.6, the Dec 19 low. On the upside, a resumption of gains would instead signal scope for a climb towards resistance at $2726.2, the Dec 12 high.
  • In the oil space WTI futures traded higher last week as the contract extended recent gains. A stronger reversal to the upside has exposed key short-term resistance at $76.41, the Oct 8 high. A firm resistance at $71.97, the Nov 7 high, has been breached, strengthening a bullish theme. On the downside, a reversal lower would expose support at the 20-day EMA, at $70.49. This average is seen as a key short-term support.
