OILUSD trade ideas

WTIWTI crude oil (West Texas Intermediate) is one of the main global benchmarks for oil pricing, alongside Brent crude. It is a light, sweet crude oil primarily produced in the United States and traded on the New York Mercantile Exchange (NYMEX). WTI is known for its high quality and low sulfur content, making it ideal for refining into gasoline and other fuels. Crude oil prices are influenced by a wide range of factors including global supply and demand dynamics, geopolitical tensions, OPEC+ decisions, US shale production, and macroeconomic trends such as inflation and economic growth. Over the past two decades, crude oil has experienced significant volatility. Prices surged to over $140 per barrel in 2008, collapsed during the global financial crisis, and again plummeted during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, when demand collapsed and prices briefly turned negative for the first time in history. The years following saw a sharp rebound as the global economy reopened and supply constraints persisted. However, rising interest rates, concerns about slowing global growth, and increasing energy transitions toward renewables have put downward pressure on oil demand in recent years. As of August 2025, WTI crude oil is trading at $66.59 per barrel, reflecting a relatively weak energy market compared to its highs in 2022. The current price suggests concerns over slowing global industrial demand, increased US oil production, and ongoing geopolitical negotiations that have stabilized some of the previous supply shocks. While energy markets remain sensitive to global conflicts, economic shifts, and OPEC+ policy decisions, WTI at this level represents a market balancing between moderate demand and ample supply. It remains a critical asset for energy traders and a key indicator of global economic health.

Oil prices rebound, maintain bullish attitude 💡Message Strategy International oil prices continued their upward trend on Thursday, closing higher for the fourth consecutive day, as concerns about growing global supply tightness abounded. Brent crude for September delivery rose 0.4% to $73.51 a barrel, while West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude for September delivery rose 0.5% to $70.37 a barrel, while the more active Brent October contract rose 0.4% to $72.76 a barrel. Recently, the market has focused on the statement of US President Trump, who demanded that Russia make "substantial progress" on the situation in Ukraine within 10-12 days, otherwise he would impose 100% secondary tariffs on its trading partners, significantly bringing forward the previous 50-day deadline. Inventory data suggests a continued struggle between supply and demand. Data from the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) showed that U.S. crude oil inventories unexpectedly rose by 7.7 million barrels to 426.7 million barrels in the week ending July 25, far exceeding expectations for a 1.3 million barrel drop. However, gasoline inventories fell by 2.7 million barrels to 228.4 million barrels, exceeding market expectations for a 600,000 barrel drop. 📊Technical aspects From a daily perspective, WTI crude oil prices have closed higher for four consecutive days since rebounding from the $66 level. It is currently running stably above the integer mark of $70 per barrel. The short-term moving average system is in a bullish arrangement, and the MACD indicator remains above the zero axis, indicating that the bullish momentum is still strong. From an hourly perspective, if the price breaks through the previous high of $70.50, it is expected to further rise to the $73.50-$75 range. Conversely, if it continues to fall below the $70 mark, it may trigger short-term profit-taking, and further support will focus on the $68.50 level. Overall, the short-term trend remains bullish. 💰Strategy Package Long Position:68.00-68.50，SL：67.50，Target:70.50-73.00

WTI is up on my radarPrice closed above daily GM, travelled, and now retraced back to the GM.. For now, I'll be BULLISH biased and look for Buy setup on the lower time frames.. Price took out the Asian high, then gave a bearish coh triggering the backside (bearish) move of the Buy set up.. Note that the backside move is more of the manipulative move. Price has now taken out the Asian low and come into the daily PRZ..this is an early sign that the backside move is likely coming to an end.. We wait to a see bullish coh for more confirmation, then look for complete buy set up to pull the trigger.

WTI uptrend pause support at 6857The WTI Crude remains in a bullish trend, with recent price action showing signs of a corrective pullback within the broader uptrend. Support Zone: 6857 – a key level from previous consolidation. Price is currently testing or approaching this level. A bullish rebound from 6857 would confirm ongoing upside momentum, with potential targets at: 7123 – initial resistance 7225 – psychological and structural level 7299 – extended resistance on the longer-term chart Bearish Scenario: A confirmed break and daily close below 6857 would weaken the bullish outlook and suggest deeper downside risk toward: 6783 – minor support 6735 – stronger support and potential demand zone Outlook: Bullish bias remains intact while the WTI Crude holds above 6734. A sustained break below this level could shift momentum to the downside in the short term.

Oil Steady as Sanction Threat LoomsOil prices held steady near recent highs after Trump threatened Russia with economic penalties if it doesn’t reach a ceasefire with Ukraine within 10–12 days. Traders are watching closely, as potential secondary sanctions on Russia could disrupt crude supply. However, skepticism remains over whether Trump will follow through, given his push for lower oil prices. The threat comes amid ongoing EU sanctions and ahead of key US trade deadlines and an OPEC+ meeting. Despite current tightness and summer demand, concerns of oversupply remain for later in the year. On the technical side, the price of crude oil is still trading in a sideways range between $64 and $68. The moving averages are confirming a bullish trend in the market, while the Stochastic oscillator is at neutral levels, hinting that the short-term outlook for pricing could go either way. The Bollinger bands have contracted quite excessively, meaning that volatility is low; therefore, it could take some time for any significant moves. Currently, the price is testing the resistance of the 50-day simple moving average, while the first area of technical resistance lies around the $68 level, which is the upper boundary of the current sideways channel.
