What do the failed bear triangles in Crude and Heating Oil mean??
ENERGIES: 5/25/11: Higher for crude and heating oil along the rbob and natural gas. The crude and heat closed higher causing failed bear triangles which should, in my opinion, mean a retracement rally will ensue. Crude could rally to the 105 area and the heat 310.Both had their best closes since 5/10/11. The rbob also settled higher with room to possibly retrace up to the 320 area if it closes over 308 first. Gas also settled higher(best since 5/4/11) but still keeping me on the sidelines for now while attempting to form a large possible bottom. SELL SIGNALS FOR CRUDE AND HEATING OIL ALONG WITH THE RBOB.
