Crude Reversal Begins
For my portfolio, the prospect of crude oil weakening is probably even more important than what the ES is doing. It’s heartening to see that, so far, crude’s surge into the lower 50s is faltering, and we’re painting a bearish reversal pattern on the candlesticks. (NOTE: I actually did this chart earlier in the trading day, and crude has slipped even more).
