Crude Oil Battles to Break Through Key Support Zone
Hello There,
Technical Outlook:
Crude oil prices have been locked in a tug-of-war around a critical support area, testing the 76.253 level twice in recent trading sessions. Despite the downward pressure, the commodity appears poised to make a push higher, according to RSI levels.
The 77.082 - 76.253 zone has emerged as a key support area, and a higher low above this range could signal the start of a bullish trend. A potential move higher could see prices stretch up to test supply levels.
If prices can establish a higher low above that zone, it would lay the groundwork for a bullish breakout and a push toward the upside. However, the setup would be invalidated if prices were to fall below the 75.324 red line.
Overall: If the price gains the momentum to hold above the key support zone, it could set the stage for a sustained rally, but a breakdown below 75.324 would likely signal a shift in the overall market sentiment ending the range in the Weekly timeframe.
Fundamental Points:
Happy Trading,

Fundamental Points:
- Oil prices went down because:
- There's too much oil being produced and not enough being used
- Inflation (prices going up) in the services sector (like healthcare, education, and finance) might stay high for a while
- This means interest rates (the cost of borrowing money) might stay high for longer than expected
- There's now more oil stored in tanks than expected, which is also causing prices to fall
