Price Signal Summary - WTI Recovery Signals The Resumption Of The Primary Uptrend

OUTLOOK
  • On the commodity front, Gold is trading lower again today as the yellow metal extends the latest bear cycle that started from the Sep 20 high of $1947.5. Support at $1901.1, the Sep 14 low, has been breached and this signals scope for an extension towards the next key support at $1884.9, the Aug 21 low. On the upside, initial firm resistance is seen at $1926.3, the 50-day EMA. A clear break of this average would highlight a possible reversal.
  • In the oil space, the uptrend in WTI futures is intact. The contract has recovered from yesterday’s low and this appears to be an early indication of a resumption of the uptrend. Support at the 20-day EMA, at $87.47, remains intact. A break of this average is required to signal scope for a deeper corrective pullback. On the upside, clearance of $92.43, the Sep 19 high, would confirm a resumption of the uptrend and open $93.31, the 1.00 projection of the Jun 28 - Aug 10 - 24 price swing.
