WTI OIL: Bearish Channel with a Potential Upside Breakout
WTI CRUDE OIL continues to trade within a well-defined downward price channel, with minor breakouts failing to gain traction due to the lack of consolidation. This price action suggests that the market remains under bearish pressure, but the structure itself hints at a possible reversal.
According to classic technical analysis, prolonged movement within a descending channel often leads to an upward breakout, as selling momentum weakens and buyers step in. To confirm this bullish scenario, we need to see a strong breakout above the upper boundary of the channel, followed by price stabilization and a retest of key resistance levels.
On the other hand, if sellers maintain control and we see increased bearish momentum, oil could continue drifting lower within the channel, delaying the potential breakout.
Should closely watch volume dynamics and key resistance levels for signs of a shift in market sentiment.
