US Oil Strategy - Oversupply Worries the Market, Oil Prices Weaken Again

Fundamental Analysis:

During yesterday's OPEC+ meeting, it was indicated that there is a need to delay the production cut agreement. However, countries that voluntarily cut production have shown no change in their stance. This has caused a reduction in the effectiveness of production cuts, failing to provide a rebound opportunity for oil prices. The primary reason lies in reports highlighting weak crude oil demand in Asia, potentially influenced by a sluggish Chinese economy, leading to continued bearish demand outlooks. Additionally, the International Energy Agency (IEA) stated that even with production cut agreements, the oil market will likely face oversupply challenges by 2025. This weak demand continues to weigh on oil price performance. Furthermore, with Trump expected to take office next year, the potential expansion of US crude oil production could further increase supply, potentially putting additional pressure on oil prices.

Technical Analysis:

On the 1-hour chart for US oil, prices faced resistance during a rebound and continued to decline, with new lows repeatedly breaking previous ones. This indicates a bearish pattern. If the resistance at 68.25 holds and fails to lead to a breakout, the trend is expected to continue downward. Therefore, a light short position is recommended around the resistance level of 68.25, with a target of 66.70 and a stop loss at 68.90.

Trading Recommendations:

Open a light short position at 68.25 resistance.

Target: 66.70. Stop loss: 68.90.

Support Level: 66.70 Resistance Level: 68.25
