Crude Oil Intraday Forecast: Let's take a closer look at my current analysis of crude oil price trends. Buyer strength is evident in the ascending linear channel on the M15 chart. The steeper the channel, the more active the buyers are. Bulls are targeting a target level of 89.20. To enter the market on a pullback, buying near or at 87.37 would be prudent. However, going against the trend is risky. Therefore, I prefer to wait for a pullback after reaching my target level before re-entering the ascending channel. If the price fails to sustain above 87.37, this indicates strong selling pressure and I should pause and reassess the situation before buying. The main H1 chart, my key trend indicator, also shows an ascending linear channel. When combined with the M15 chart, this highlights the dominance of buyers.

Therefore, as mentioned above, I consider buying options. Based on the H1 chart, buying at the lower limit of 85.90 would be preferable. We expect a rise to the upper limit of the channel at 88.17. A break above 89.20, driven by strong buying, would provide support at the resistance level. A break above this level would signal continued upward momentum. The rise is likely to slow at 88.17 before a downward correction, suggesting selling. A trend reversal is possible, but carries significant risks and is considered highly probable. This analysis integrates market trends and technical indicators to provide a strategic trading approach. It focuses on entering trades at the optimal time while balancing risk and potential reward.
