now that CL has broken down you are looking for any bounces to sell against.
The bottom of the big drop 2 - 5 May was 95.18 July contract .
Subtracting $0.63 from that should give you some trading levels
94.55, 93.92,93.29, 92.66, 92.03, 91.40, 90.77, etc
(you can divide the distance between these ie 32.5 cents as required.)
When you have a swing high or low you may wish to check in addition to the above harmonics and also
+ or - the 32.5 multiples to the swing high or low.
So from the harmonics we have 93.92 in our series and from the swing low we have 93.98 together giving us a good idea of the high, 94.00
see example:
