Two weeks ago, I shared a potential bullish setup for the crude oil (CL) futures market on my TradingView page.
At the time, CL was near a low price and hitting its long term up trend line. But we wanted to see if support was going to hold before looking for long ideas.
Well, it turns out that support did hold, and the CL market was able to break above its short term down trend line.
With the market now in the daily buy zone, here’s how we’re setting up our trading ideas on the hourly chart…
Breaking Into the Buy Zone
Here’s how I see the CL chart setting up for a bullish idea on the hourly time frame…
The CL one hour time frame is in up channel.
It will be a good idea to look for long ideas near the bottom of bullish channel.
Entry: Counter trend line break bullish near the bottom of the channel.
Stop: In the sell zone, below the entry.
Limit: 90.67
As long as the market stays above the bottom of the channel, it will be a good idea to turn to the five minute time frame and to look for Tunnel Trader / Destination Trader / Chandelier Trader long ideas towards the one hour price target.
