Key Points
- Crude oil exceeded its previous upside-continuation reference of 87.609 during the day, but the new 88.245 threshold remains untested.
- Silver recorded a lower daily trough at 49.592, extending its bearish development without reaching the 48.589 downside-continuation level.
- The forecasts remain distinct: further recovery is projected for USOilSpot, while XAGUSD retains a three-stage corrective and bearish sequence.
Crude oil's recovery has made measurable progress within the Elliott Wave structure established on November 12. The USOilSpot four-hour chart recorded a daily high of 88.226, exceeding the 87.609 upside reference discussed in the previous crude oil analysis. Yet at 8:23:07 a.m. New York time on November 13, the displayed price was 87.519, below that earlier threshold, making a sustained breakout unconfirmed.
The wave count retains the provisional termination of red B, alongside green c and purple (v), following the earlier red A peak. With that structure unchanged, the blue forecast arrow projects further recovery. The new 88.245 marker is explicitly designated Continue Higher, while 83.054 remains the downside-continuation condition. Neither level is identified as a formal invalidation, and the chart provides no final numerical upside target.

Silver's development is more firmly aligned with the declining structure introduced in the November 12 XAGUSD assessment. Its new four-hour chart shows a daily low of 49.592, below the previous day's 49.700, while the displayed price at 8:23:12 a.m. New York time was 49.872.
The count preserves the completed red wave 4 following green w–x–y, and the subsequent green waves (i) and (ii). From the last observed candles, the connected blue path anticipates three successive stages: a decline to complete green (iii) near the 161.8% Fibonacci extension, a corrective recovery toward 38.2%, and then another downward move. None of these prospective stages is confirmed complete.

Technical Outlook — H4
| Instrument | Next projected development | Continue Higher | Continue Lower |
|---|---|---|---|
| USOilSpot | Extension of the recovery following red B | 88.245 | 83.054 |
| XAGUSD | Green (iii) decline toward 161.8%, rebound toward 38.2%, then another decline | 53.167 | 48.589 |
Trader's Question: Has either chart confirmed the next major leg?
Answer: Not fully. Oil has surpassed its previous upside reference intraday but remains below the newly marked 88.245 level. Silver's lower low supports the bearish progression, yet its 48.589 downside-continuation condition and projected Fibonacci sequence remain unresolved.
