US oil to bounce into $88.61-$90.56 range

By Reuters News

- US oil is expected to bounce into a range of $88.61-$90.56 per barrel, as it has stabilized around a support zone of $83.45-$84.40.

The zone is formed by the 61.8% retracement of the uptrend from $66.75 to $110.48 and the 50% projection level of a wave C from $110.48.

Either of these supports is strong enough to trigger a decent bounce. The small doji forming during the previous trading session is indeed the early signal of the bounce.

On the hourly chart, the market is about to break a resistance at $86.63 and a falling trendline. The break could open the way toward the $87.52-$88.96 range, which is slightly lower than the target range on the daily chart.

Support is at $85.18, a break below which could trigger a fall into the $82.85-$84.02 range.
