OIL.WTI
This week oil prices fell close to levels not seen since January, amid persistent demand concerns. Looking technically at the H4 chart, one can notice that despite negative sentiment, buyers managed to defend key support at $85.50, which is marked by a lower limit of the 1:1 structure and previous price reactions. However, should break below the aforementioned support occur, downward move may deepen towards next major support at $76.50, which coincides with 61.8% Fibonacci retracement of the upward wave launched in December 2021.
