Brent Oil Price Did Not Rise Despite Iran's Attack on Israel As you know, Iran launched a missile attack on Israel over the weekend. This could greatly increase the price of Brent oil, given that Iran is one of the top 10 oil producing countries, and the fact of the strike could provoke further escalation in the region. However, at the beginning of the trading...
Preferred direction: BUY Comment: After a very long accumulation in oil, most likely the buyer is ready for the long-awaited growth. According to the results of yesterday's trading, the price was fixed at the highs, which indicates the strength of the buyer against the backdrop of growing market sales. In this regard, we maintain a strong buy priority towards...

Preferred direction: SELL Comment: Sell-deal by oil is also relevant. Recent events in the OPEC arena did not have a positive impact on oil, and the decline continued. At the moment, the transaction has been moved to breakeven, and part of the profit has been fixed. However, on Thursday, there is a good opportunity to take a closer look at short-term...
Preferred direction: Neutral Comment: There is no particularly interesting situation in the medium term for oil yet, but we can say that there are still more signs of sell. After all, the instrument is in a downward global trend. The current accumulation after a small downward impulse is filled with purchases (long-orders), that is, there is a resource for...
According to WSJ, the reduction could be 1 million barrels per day. Saudi Arabia is in favour of cuts, but the idea causes disagreements among other members of the organisation.

Preferred direction: SELL Comment: For oil, the previous trading idea also worked out perfectly and the instrument is now trading at the level of 86.62. Despite the general tense geopolitical background, the instrument is still considered for sell, and the purpose of the sale is gap closing. Presumably, this goal will be achieved within one trading week. ...
💬 Description: Oil remains one of the most interesting instruments at the moment, which is due to the aggravated geopolitical background. Metals are the same story. In our previous trading idea for oil, we assumed entering a long position with the goal of reaching level 91 . This happened, but the main idea and the more promising one - sell. At the moment, a...
On Friday, trading in WTI oil futures on the NYMEX closed at USD 82.81 per barrel. And on Monday morning, they opened at a price of USD 85.25 and began to quickly rise in price, reaching 87.24. Natural gas prices have also risen sharply. The reason is Saturday's attack on Israel. And, of course, associations arise with the oil crisis of 1973, when Arab...
Preferred direction: SELL Comment: The bearish sentiment for oil still continues. We remind you that our last short trading idea worked 100%. Now the seller’s task is to break through the support zone around level 92. Most likely this will happen in the very near future. The more global target of this sale is, of course, the level of 90.72. Thank you for...
Preferred direction: SELL Comment: The last oil trade aimed at a short-term fall (counter-trend movement) successfully closed with a profit. At the moment, a sell setup has also formed, and here most likely the rollback will be deeper. The correction potential lies at the level of 92.50. Thank you for like and share your views!
Preferred direction: BUY Comment: Oil continues its steady strengthening, and the medium-term outlook for instruments is positive. However, now, most likely, the price will go for a correction, and it is expected that the instrument will reach level 92, where the balance for pushing is located. In addition, there is a small probability that the price will...
After a 2 month consolidation and accumulation phase (04may-11Jul) and also after breaking various bearish trendlines since the Mar 2022 top Brent Oil has broken upwards to $81.49 this week. I believe Brent Oil will retest the support area around $77-78 over the next week or 2. I'll be looking for entries in the $78 price area for a long to $86-88...
