WTI Crude Oil Has Moved Below Its Key Moving Averages

WTI Crude Oil Has Moved Below Its Key Moving Averages

WTI Crude Oil moved Bearishly below its moving averages, and that could be a motivation for extending the Bearishness towards 55.55 and then lower.

Its RSI trades near 30.00 and thereby, we may witness huge fluctuation.

Support: 56.10-55.50-55.00
Resistance: 57.00-57.40-58.25

Crude Oil’s collapse is largely attributed to lower global demand, which was accompanied by more production from the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC). OPEC members, seeking to defend their market share of a highly oversupplied Crude Oil market, have engaged in a ‘price ware.”

West Texas Intermediate (WTI), also known as WTI Crude Oil or Texas light sweet, is a grade of Crude Oil used as a benchmark in Oil pricing.

This grade is described as light because of its relatively low density, and sweet because of its low sulfur content.

Crude Oil is the underlying commodity of Chicago Mercantile Exchange’s COMEX Oil futures contracts.

The price of Crude Oil is often referenced in news reports on Oil prices, alongside the price of Brent Crude (OIL) from the North Sea.

Other important Oil markers include the Dubai Crude, Oman Crude, Urals oil and the OPEC Reference Basket.

WTI Crude Oil is lighter and sweeter than Brent Crude Oil, and considerably lighter and sweeter than Dubai or Oman.

Have a terrific weekend.
