Crude Oil 4H Chart - Elliott Wave Count - June 29, 2016

Crude has continued the bullish channel and we predicted both the end of the yellow 3 and 4 wave accordingly. This bounce off the yellow 4 should hold $45.80 or the lower-bound of the red trendline in order for the 5th wave to continue and target $54-$56 initially.

If this is going to turn into an impulsive wave 3, it needs to target the 162% extension level ($60-$62) shown in the above chart and confirm this bullish rally. Price stagnating at the 100% extension area ($51.70) is not good for the bullish continuation.

  • Crude is above 20EMA.- red line;
  • It is testing 50SMA - green line;
  • It has 200SMA at $48.80 - white line
