The Global Algorithmic Trading System (GATS) Multi-Frame Confluence Blueprint for WTI Crude Oil provides a clear roadmap for intraday scalps, short-term swings, and daily trend positions. By blending EMA-zone structure across daily, 4-hour, and 1-hour charts with MACD, oscillators, volume/pressure filters, and ADX/DMI, traders can seize high-probability entries with precision risk management.

1. Daily Chart (M1440): Neutral / Corrective

• EMA Structure: Daily EMA 50 (~61.60) remains below EMA 89 (~62.38). No confirmed daily up-trend yet.

• Oscillators: RSI ~51.6 (neutral), Stochastic ~76/78 (rising), CCI ~+46 (early bullish).
• ADX/DMI: ADX ~20.2 with +DI (~20.3) just above –DI (~17.8).
• Takeaway: Correction winding down; daily structure still neutral. Wait for EMA 50 ↗ EMA 89 to confirm a larger trend long.

2. 4-Hour Chart (M240): Transitional Bullish

• EMA Structure: EMA 50 has crossed above EMA 89; shorter EMAs stacking bullish.

• MACD: Clear bullish crossover above zero (MACD ~0.077 > signal ~0.046).
