BUY 63.75; TP 64.25; SL 63.60
The meeting of oil exporting countries will provide the fundamental reasons for the commodity’s price to make big moves. Technically, Brent made a big advance yesterday rising from the support of the 100- and 50-day MAs in the 61.25 area. The price is currently trading below yesterday’s high of 63.50. If the positive news push oil above this area, it will have the scope to rise to 64.40 (200-day MA). The further resistance will be quite far away – at 66.00 (resistance line connecting 2019 highs), but to get the breakout of the moving average should be confirmed. On the downside, the slide below the 100-period MA on the H4 will open the way down for a decline to 61.95 (200-peiod MA on H4) and 61.25 (daily MAs).
To trade Brent with FBS you need to choose BRN-20G in MT4.
