WTI Oil Forecast – USOilSpot Elliott Wave Analysis | October 27, 2026

WTI crude oil maintains a bearish near-term outlook on the 4-hour chart, despite the preceding upward structure, with the displayed price at 100.360. The user-labeled Elliott Wave count identifies blue wave b and red C near the recent high, following the completion of purple wave (i). Consistent with our previous analysis dated October 26, 2026, the projected correction remains valid, although the anticipated decline has not yet been confirmed. The blue path anticipates wave c falling toward approximately 94.00 to complete purple wave (ii), followed by a potential recovery toward 102.00. The chart marks 95.052 as an intermediate downside reference and 103.276 as the invalidation level. Sustained strength above the recent high would challenge the corrective scenario.

WTI maintains a sideways corrective outlook with bearish near-term pressure at the displayed 100.249. The Elliott Wave count shows green wave (iv) ending at the October low, followed by a five-wave advance completing purple (i) at blue v. The subsequent blue a-b-c correction is developing within purple (ii), with blue b labeled at the recent high. Compared with October 23, the earlier projected pullback is now reflected in the updated corrective count, although the decline toward 95.052 remains unconfirmed.
