The commodity sector has certainly be a focal point for investors over the month of December 2018 and looking back at our last Commodity Report we were pretty spot on.
With Oil being the hot topic at the start of 2019 we have seen U.S Crude Oil and Brent Crude Oil gain over 3% on Wednesday. Oil is set for its longest consecutive day rally since 2017 and it seems that Brent Crude might be closing in on $64 per barrel soon.

Brent Crude Oil
We can see that the price action finally broke out of the descending channel and is pushing higher to the $64.67 per barrel level. Take note that the 50-day Simple Moving Average (SMA) (blue line) might serve as some resistance. There might be a short-term pullback from the 30.0 Fibonacci retracement level before pushing higher.

Gold
The precious metal has been pushing higher mainly off the back of international markets selling off over December as investors seek safe havens. When looking at the chart we can see that the price action seems to be consolidating a bit and finding support at the $1276/ ounce level. The price action might move lower in the short-term testing support once more before moving higher.
