Why this trade
This is a market sell on WTI Crude Oil at 88.711, generated by a mechanical 'Supertrend flip' strategy that sells when the 1-hour Supertrend indicator turns bearish. The strategy has historically shown a negative edge across tested assets and is untested on WTI. However, the short aligns with WTI's 4-hour downtrend following a 13% drop over the last five days. Price is currently bounded by the daily pivot at 88.881 and S1 support at 87.439. The trade will be stopped out if price reverses to hit the Supertrend line at 91.257, which sits just below the R1 resistance.

About the strategy: Supertrend flip
Supertrend is one of the most used trend indicators (75 strategies, 2,162 stars in our Pine library; for example Supertrend + EMA rebound). On 1-hour bars, buy at market when Supertrend (10, 3) flips up and sell when it flips down. The stop is the Supertrend line (at least half an ATR away), targets 1R, 2R and 3R; the rest closes when it flips back.
Caveat: Average per trade across the 11 instruments tested (7 FX majors, gold, silver, Bitcoin, Ether), costs included. Slightly negative every year on average; positive on 3 of 11 instruments (best USD/JPY +0.08R). Not tested on WTI or the Nasdaq 100.
