XOM’s Relative Strength and Potential Breakout: Tracking Oil Correlation



The daily chart of XOM, paired with Crude Oil Futures in the lower pane, demonstrates a notable correlation between the two. Historically, XOM's price movements closely mirror fluctuations in oil prices; when oil rises, XOM generally follows suit, and vice versa. Over the past six weeks, a key observation is XOM's ability to make higher lows despite declining oil prices, signaling relative strength. This suggests that XOM is outperforming oil in this downtrend. Additionally, XOM faces a defined resistance level at $120.20. Should oil prices rebound, keep an eye on XOM for a potential breakout above $120.20. Such a breakout could signal a continuation of upward momentum, presenting an opportunity for gains as XOM responds to positive shifts in oil prices.
