Good day traders and welcome to the US session.
Today, let’s talk about crude oil, its short and medium time frame.
On the daily chart crude oil has completed a complex correction labeled as wave II or B at the 42.03 level from where we started to track a new bullish impulse. An impulse is a five wave pattern, so there is room for much more gains on energy market since we see current leg up as blue wave 3 of an impulse. Wave 3) has in general five clear waves, which means oil price can still climb up to 60/61.9$ per barrel.
