Natural Gas Corner - Special Update - Crude Oil Market Nearing 16-Year Trend Line Support For A Third Time This Year




The next few weeks will be technically important for both the crude oil  and heating oil markets as the crude oil market nears 16-year trend line support.

This trend line support on the weekly chart currently between 44.00-45.00 basis the spot September 15 contract was tested two  times previously in 2015.  The first time was in January followed by a 42.03 low set in mid-March.

For a third time this year, trend line support should be tested.  If support holds and crude oil holds above 44.00-45.00, a long term low could be set in the crude oil  and heating oil markets.

However, if trend line support does not hold, the 32.40 low from December 2008 will become the next longer term support for the crude oil market.  The December 2008 low coincided with  a heating oil spot low just above the 1.1200 level.
