AB=CD Bullish Pattern on Oil

After the price of WTI oil rose to highs of US$78.42 on 8 October and shaped an ‘alternate’ AB=CD bearish formation at US$77.68 (a 1.618% Fibonacci projection ratio that was bolstered by the 200-day simple moving average at US$77.40 and a 61.8% Fibonacci retracement ratio at US$77.21), the subsequent response has established an equal AB=CD bullish formation at US$69.45. This 100% projection ratio shares space with a 61.8% Fibonacci retracement ratio at US$70.26. For that reason, technical buyers could soon step into this market.
