Main Scenario

Consider long positions from corrections above 87.70 with a target of 105.17–115.50.

Alternative Scenario

Analysis

On the weekly chart, a descending correction has likely finished developing as the second wave of larger degree (2) and an ascending third wave (3) is forming. On the daily time frame, the first wave of smaller degree 1 of (3) has apparently formed, a downward correction has been completed as the second wave 2 of (3), and the third wave 3 of (3) is developing, with wave i of 3 unfolding as its part. On the H4 time frame, wave (iii) of i is developing, with a local correction completed as wave iv of (iii) within it. If the presumption is correct, WTI will continue to rise to 105.17–115.50 within wave v of (iii). The level of 87.70 is critical in this scenario as a breakout below it will enable the asset to continue declining to the levels of 79.25–67.00.
