Has Oil Hit Bottom?

Oil is well worth tracking because it has
so much influence on both the Dow and the US Dollar (and therefore all the major currency pairs which cross it). Fundamentally, the case is much stronger for oil heading up over the longer term, but where is it likely headed in the nearer term?
The daily chart for oil is beginning to trace a bullish divergence, and the weekly stochastics are showing signs of turning as well - all of this points to a potential bottom. 119.68 is a key level (or 120.000 from a psychological standpoint) and may help to determine the next direction, depending upon which side of it we continue to trade on in the days ahead.
If price continues to fall, it will most likely find support at either 116.34 or 109.04. If we have truly found the bottom and price begins to rise from here, then resistance is expected at 123.73, 127.31 and 132.02. And if price manages to break above the prior high of 147.26, then a scenario comes into play which could (eventually) see oil as high as 185.48.
