Oil Technical Analysis – 13-November-2024
As of this writing, the black gold trades at approximately $67.2, declining toward the October low at $66.8.  From a technical standpoint, the Oil market should consolidate after the price reaches the 66.8 support. In this scenario, WTI can erase some losses by rising toward $69.7.
Avoid Bearish Oil Trades in Oversold Market
Please note that the Oil market is oversold. Therefore, joining a bear market when it is saturated with sellers is not advisable. We suggest waiting for the market to consolidate near the 69.3 resistance that offers a decent bid to consider a bearish entry.
