Crude oil rose above$80 a barrel on Wednesday as the dollar weakened, prompting investors to once again buy into commodities. However, as I will demonstrate below, Crude Oil may very well be heading for a reversal later today. This might be a good opportunity for forex traders to enter the trend at a very early stage and a great entry price.
• The indicators used are the Slow Stochastic, RSI and MACD.
• Point 1: There is a “doji” candlestick that has formed on the chart, indicating that a reversal should take place.
• Point 2: The Slow Stochastic indicates a bearish cross, signaling that the next move may be in a downward direction.
• Point 3: The Relative Strength Index (RSI) indicates that the price of this cross currently floats in the overbought territory, signaling downward pressure.
• Point 4: The MACD indicates an impending bearish cross, which may signal a downward movement is going to occur in the near future.
