Analysis
A descending correction appears to have formed as the second wave of larger degree (2) on the weekly chart, with wave C of (2) completed as its part. On the daily timeframe, the ascending third wave (3) has started unfolding, with the first wave of smaller degree 1 of (3) still developing as its part. On the H4 chart, wave iii of 1 has likely formed, a local correction iv of 1 has been completed, and wave v of 1 has started unfolding. If the presumption is correct, WTI will continue to rise to the levels of 115.70–126.00. The level of 79.20 is critical in this scenario as a breakout below it will enable the asset to continue declining to the levels of 65.00–53.25.
This forecast is based on the Elliott Wave Theory. When developing trading strategies, it is essential to consider fundamental factors, as the market situation can change at any time.
