WTI went up 49¢ today with an extremely low ATR that produced 2 winning trades and 1 losing trade (false signal at the third arrow). This low ATR is responsible for the worst trading day so far this year.

I can't remember the last time WTI was this range-bound. Toughest markets to trade.

So are oil prices immune to a big miss on US GDP? I figured this would put some downward pressure on oil prices. US manufacturing data keeps coming in strong though. Still a little surprised by the lack of impact this morning.

WTI went up $1.01 today with a very low ATR that only produced 2 winning trades although the opening of the second trade was quite confusing due to a false signal so many pips were lost in the process.

{quote} Got extremely lucky here since I bought the August contract which expired on Friday, saved me from a much bigger loss. Might be chasing it here but bought 1 X MCL @ $66.08, I think this selling is overdone.
Closed this @ $73.83. Overreaction to Delta variant has me worried more lockdowns are coming for the US.

I don't think they can go back to lockdowns again. People just won't do it. But I do agree activity will slow which would put pressure on oil prices.

What I thought was a tight trading range is looking more like an upward trend. We already know what OPEC+ is doing with supply. I see WTI bouncing in the $65-$75 range until we see how overall demand is going to play out.

WTI threatening to go lower, i'm expecting it will hit a level at which the bulls will defend and it will go flying up again. seems they are happy with oil at this level. the constant threats from the covid variants may be preventing it from hitting $80. will be interesting to see what price they defend

Given the price pressures, there's some downside risks on a higher than expected draw or if we see a build in the EIA inventory data. In a little over an hour, we should see some volatility in WTI prices: https://www.energyexch.com/#detail=118785

WTI went up $1.08 with an average ATR that produced 12 winning trades taking into consideration the last signal. It also produced 2 break even trades in a row and this is rare.

Hello everybody and Hutch! I also trade WTI and see its potential, but never use renko, no patient to set up correctly. Anyway, I scalp in direction of daily trend (which is not easy for me). How are you able to find the main trend to follow it? Apreciate your work here!

Long 1 x MCL @ $68.96. Not fully buying this dollar strength but the NFP beat could mean more demand.
