Fibonacci Patterns January 20, 2016 Crude Oil

Interesting Fibonacci Patterns on Crude Oil


Crude Oil today has taken one terrible pounding and brought world markets down by a huge amount. There is tremendous apprehension as to what will follow as the new day begins in Asia.
Some important developments are revealed on the technical charts. Have a look at these Fibonacci Patterns.


First the Daily Chart







You can see that there is a Bullish AB=CD pattern which indicates the market will be turning up.
You can also see that there is CCI Divergence on the chart, Bullish Regular Divergence.

Next, The Weekly Chart






On this one is also an AB=CD  Bullish Pattern, and also Bullish Regular Divergence

Note that the pattern started many months ago, on May 3, 2015 and is therefore a very strong Bullish pattern.

Now we can look at the Fibonacci Heading on the Monthly Chart




Here we have a Bullish Shark and what is interesting here is that the pattern started seven years ago…. this one is a powerful pattern.

Note the CCI indicator on this chart….There is a strong indication of Regular Bullish Divergence forming.


Summary


Yes, today there was a bloodbath, the bears clobbered world markets and drove the price of Crude to new lows. And there may be more of this. That is the bad news. On the other hand there is a recovery at hand as indicated by these Fibonacci Patterns.
Very soon we will see a reversal in this market, I expect a significant rebound as the shorts have to cover in the next few days.
There was a bit of an uptick in after hours trading today and that may continue as the Asian markets open.
In any event, by the use of Fibonacci Patterns we can evaluate what will be happening in the not too distant future.

UPDATE


As I post this, the price of Crude has rebounded to 28.56
