We’ve had a nice start to the week with two take profits on the table. For the moment I’m looking to trade a very nice setup on Crude Oil. 

Sell-off In Crude Oil

The Crude Oil had a great sell-off on Friday in response to the stronger Dollar. As we know, there’s a negative correlation between the Crude Oil and US dollar. This means the stronger Dollar makes the Crude Oil expensive for the other countries. Hence, reducing demand for the commodity.
