So far we are also seeing what could be a move out of an ending diagonal, which makes me think that there is a chance the market could attack higher prices again this week with a very important resistance zone around 97 up to 100.40, where we still have that major unfilled gap from last week. As we know, whenever gaps are filled there can often be another important reversal in trend afterwards, and ideally this would happen after an A B C rebound. For that reason, it still looks like there could be a bit more time and price left before this correction is fully completed. Once this rally is over-we will once again expect further weakness.

The US-Iran war and the effective closure of the Strait of Hormuz sent WTI surging to a high of $138 per barrel on April 7, before a ceasefire, diplomatic progress, and growing hopes of a negotiated resolution pulled prices sharply lower. As of late May, WTI is trading near the $96-$98 area with the market now compressing into a tightening range between key technical levels at 105 and 90, caught between supply shock fears on one side and diplomacy-driven relief on the other. The resolution of the Hormuz situation and the pace of Middle Eastern oil resumption remain the dominant variables for what comes next.
