OPEC Agreement Fits Into Bullish Technical Set-Up

Both oil and natural gas have well-demarcated, multi-month accumulation (base) formations, with natural gas (lower chart) having already exploded up through its key resistance zone at 3.10 - 3.36, which projects to 4.20 and 4.80 medium-term targets.

Meanwhile, the oil reaction to the OPEC (and NOPEC) out-put cut agreement merely has thrust price to challenge its multi-month resistance zone at $51 - $52, which, if hurdled and sustained, will project considerably higher, medium-term targets at $60 and at $67 -$69.

From a pattern perspective, natural gas is in a more advanced stage of development than oil at this time.
