Oil Playbook ( 2021 )Prices for Crude Oil are down -20% from last year which means the bearish outlook is priced in. The bearish outlook is that the -16% drop in consumption outweighs the -7% drop in production plus the 4% increase in inventory stockpiles. Bulls want to know if demand has bottomed or not and since consumption tends to be highest in Jan-Feb, it might have further to fall since travel is still lagging. However, exports have recovered and circling back, the -20% discount in crude prices indicate the market is fundamentally balanced given the uncertainty.

Crude Oil - Technicals AloneThere's too much noise. Covid lockdowns, vaccine hopes, China trade retaliation, etc. Technicals: There was a break out of the wedge that most traders have drawn out however, I think it's more likely price breaks back down in order to build momentum for the next move higher. Ideally, there could be some good buying opportunities around the 200 EMA on the 4hr chart. If I'm wrong then I'd like price to break above the previous high, $41.63, before I start buying.
