US oil to test a support at $40.92

Published Updated

imageSINGAPORE: US oil is expected to test a support at $40.92 per barrel, a break below which could cause a loss to the next support at $40.47.

The support is provided by the 138.2 percent Fibonacci projection level of an upward wave 3, the third wave of a five-wave cycle from the April 5 low of $35.24.

This wave was disrupted by a strong resistance at $41.90, the March 22 high.

A further consolidation below this level is highly likely.

A break below $40.92 may not only open the way towards $40.47, the 123.6 percent level, but also cause a further loss to the 100 percent level at $39.75, as suggested by a channel technique.

A rise above $41.64, the 161.8 percent level, could lead to a gain to the 186.4 percent level at $42.39.
