CRUDE OIL: 5/15/12  API ENERGY STOCKS. Higher close yesterday for crude oil futures.  The rising dollar and falling indices lately have helped lead the crude lower.  The crude made its lowest lows and close since December.  Choppy action in the crude could be indicitve of a retracement on the horizon but I’ve been saying that for several sessions so far.  Crude closing below 9500 was not good in my opinion but was close enough to not take any new short postions since it can easily retracement up to the 100 area.  Closing below the critical 100 phsycological area last a week ago was extremely bearish in my opinion and now its down to the last important area to hold the way I see it.  The crude has been bascially falling since the beginning of the year and now has quite a bit of resistance overhead as shown below.  For additional customizable charts and quotes visit Markethead.com for a FREE, no-obligation 30 day subscription.  SELL SIGNAL FOR CRUDE OIL FUTURES.  CALL FOR DETAILS AT (312) 277-0107 OR EMAIL ralexander@zaner.com!

CRUDE OIL: 5/14/12  Lower closes last session for crude oil futures.  The rising dollar and falling indices lately have helped lead the energies lower.  The crude does look oversold but didn’t make its worst close since December.  Choppy action also could be indicitve of a retracement on the horizon but we’ll see.  Crude still needs to hold the 9500 area in my opinion and, if it does, could retracement up to the 100 area.  Closing below the critical 100 phsycological area last Monday was extremely bearish in my opinion and now its down to the last important area to hold the way I see it.  The crude has been bascially falling since the beginning of the year and now has quite a bit of resistance overhead as shown below.  For additional customizable charts and quotes visit Markethead.com for a FREE, no-obligation 30 day subscription.  SELL SIGNAL FOR CRUDE OIL FUTURES.  CALL FOR DETAILS AT (312) 277-0107 OR EMAIL ralexander@zaner.com!

CRUDE: 5/11/12  Higher close yesterday for crude oil futures.  The crude looks oversold after attempting to take out Wednesday’s low but failing so far.  Choppy action also could be indicitve of a retracement on the horizon but we’ll see.  Crude still needs to hold the 9500 area in my opinion and, if it does, could retracement up to the 100 area.  Closing below the critical 100 phsycological area on Monday was extremely bearish in my opinion and now its down to the last important area to hold the way I see it.  The crude has been bascially falling since the beginning of the year and now has quite a bit of resistance overhead as shown below.  For additional customizable charts and quotes visit Markethead.com for a FREE, no-obligation 30 day subscription.  SELL SIGNAL FOR CRUDE OIL FUTURES.  CALL FOR DETAILS AT (312) 277-0107 OR EMAIL ralexander@zaner.com!

CRUDE OIL FUTURES COMMENTS

JUNE MINI CRUDE OIL:  It has been consolidating for four days right under the 200 day ma that it violated on Monday.  It triggered another sell yesterday from Tuesday’s inside day.  It has yet to follow through.  It is trying to consolidate in a previous support area formed in Dec. 2011.  During the entire recent sell-off, there wasn’t any substantial drop in open interest.  With it still at a one year high, the market remains vulnerable to more selling.  Will it happen?  Both long term charts continue to suggest lower crude.  If it can rally from the current consolidation, it could be an opportunity to short.  Closed 97.08, up .27.

CRUDE OIL FUTURES COMMENTS

JUNE MINI CRUDE OIL:  The free fall in crude reached the 20 day ma on the monthly chart.  That is giving it some support.  On the weekly chart it violated the 20 day ma last week and triggered a sell this week.  On the daily chart it violated the 200 day ma yesterday and today.  Today it closed under it.  None of these develops are positive but at this point, crude could be somewhat oversold.  The projection for the current wave down on the daily chart has been met.  It is also in an area that stopped a previous sell-off in December.  My point being a rally could develop from this level.  It should be one to short.  Closed 97.01, down .93.
