Crude-oil futures are having their worst week since March, but some traders might think about buying the pullback.
The first pattern on today’s chart is the price area around 83.50. It represented the peak for CL1! in December and April. It’s also near the spot where prices stalled in early August before continuing higher in early September. Black gold is now sitting near that price. If it continues to stabilize, chart watchers may think old resistance has become new support.
Second, the 50-day simple moving average (SMA) had a “golden cross” above the 200-day SMA in late-August. That may suggest the longer-term trend is bullish.
Third, the current pullback dragged stochastics into oversold territory.
Finally, CL1! has retraced about half its move during the entire third quarter.
