OIL is giving us correction against the 70.58 peak. We expect to see another leg up toward  64.68-66.01 area to complete a 3 waves  (a)(b)(c) pattern. Our members know that we identify potential reversal zones using the Equal Legs technique.  As long as the price stays within this region, we expect sellers to take control and push it down toward new lows. We recommended that members avoid buying the OIL at this stage, while favoring the short side.

A 2 days later, we can see the result. OIL reached the proposed equal legs area and found sellers, as expected. We got a decent reaction from the sellers’ zone. The recovery peaked at 65.1.  As long as it remains below that high, the next leg down may be in progress.
