This morning, nearby Oil broke its prior pullback low at $42.58 (Oct 27), which has triggered follow-through selling pressure to a $41.69 low so far.

Although Oil has recovered to $42.30, weekly inventory data will be released at 11 AM ET, and could, and usually does, impact price direction-- and press Oil towards my next optimal target zone at $40.00, which my work expects to contain any additional, forthcoming weakness within a larger price, momentum, and geopolitical bottoming period.
