Crude Oil Falling Sharply After A Completed Complex Correction

Crude Oil turned sharply lower in an impulsive manner, which means that bears could take the lead again.

Crude Oil dropped sharply at the end of the May with five waves into wave A), which in EW theory suggests a bearish reversal. Later, at the beginning of June, we can see slow corrective movement within a channel range, which usually means that it's just a temporary pause before a continuation lower. 
We are always looking for a minimum three waves, A-B-C or 1-2-3, so in this case wave C or 3 down is still missing, which should be made with five waves just like wave A).

So, as we can see on the chart, Crude Oil was trading in a complex W-X-Y correction into wave B) in the past days, which seems to be finally completed after that sharp drop. MACD indicator is already showing a divergence so, there's a good chance that Crude Oil can be headed much much lower, but we always wait for confirmations, which in this case would be only if we get five subwaves down, a break below channel support line and 64.75 level. And if we get these confirmations, then we have all the evidence of a bearish reversal.
