Cycle Trading

Oil printed its lowest point on Monday, which was day 25. That is 5 days shy of the normal timing band for a daily cycle low. However, oil is giving every indication that a daily cycle low has formed.

The decline into the day 25 low caused oil to deliver a 50% fib retracement, which we can see at a DCL. Oil then formed a swing low on Tuesday and delivered more bullish follow through on Wednesday causing oil has closed back above the 10 day MA. Oil also has closed above the upper daily cycle band to indicate that it continues in its daily uptrend. Oil will remain in its daily uptrend unless it closes below the lower daily cycle band.
