Oil and Gas prices have found their bottom in April and June 2020, respectively. Then, an important rally towards March and August 2022 highs, respectively, has taken place. Now, from the peaks, a consolidation is taking place and should find another bottom soon. Indeed, oil prices are trading within daily buying area. Natural gas is lagging and can reach the respective buying area as well. On the other hand, major indices may have found a bottom from November 2021/January 2022 highs already. Last not least, Hang Seng index is reacting already higher out of weekly bluebox ending a 5 year correction from January 2018 highs. It is obvious, that energy stocks should be supported owing to rising prices of oil and gas and also due to the next bullish cycle in indices. Will this coincidence allow PetroChina to find a bottom and accelerate higher?
Firstly, red wave w of blue wave (II) has printed a low at 4.05 in October 2008. Then, a triangle structure in red wave x has ended at 11.04 highs in April 2015. Later on, the price has broken 4.05 lows opening up a bearish sequence. As a consequence, red wave y should find support lower from 100% extension. However, that extension is negative which is impossible. Therefore, 61.8% extension being 2.52-0.00 area can serve as a next supporting range where a new cycle higher should start. Indeed, the red wave y of blue wave (II) has finished in October 2020 at 2.16.
While above October 2020 lows, a new bullish cycle in blue wave (III) might have started and is now in the initial stages. Long-term, the target for blue wave (III) will be 22.41-34.92 area and even higher.
Investors and traders can be using 3.40-2.76 bluebox area as a buying opportunity in $0857 targeting 22.41-34.92 area and even higher in the long run.
