WTI Crude Oil, 9425/9450 Likely To Cap

 | Nov 21, 2013 06:36AM ET

WTI Crude January should struggle to make gains again today with 9425/9450 likely to cap. Only a break above 9455 turns the outlook more positive & can target 9535/40, possibly as far as 9500/10. We are close to testing Nov lows at 9317 for the Jan contract but be aware that we do appear to be in a process of forming a bottom for the 3 month correction.

Failure to hold 9300 today is a realistic possibility & could lead to a test of the 9265/45 area. With the bottoming process, this area could mark the low for the week. However a break lower cannot be ruled out & could target excellent support at 9200/75 for a buying opportunity & an end to the correction.
