2. Crude Oil Analysis:

News Summary:

Amid the ongoing escalation of the Strait of Hormuz crisis, the crude oil market has moved away from the traditional supply–demand framework and is now being driven by geopolitical leverage and extreme sentiment. Data indicates that restrictions on the Strait’s actual transit capacity have already created risks of global supply disruptions. Meanwhile, the implementation of targeted blockade measures by the United States signals that the standoff is entering a prolonged phase. From a technical perspective, after the earlier decline, oil prices are now attempting to establish a rebound channel across multiple timeframes.

Trend Analysis:

On the H4 chart, we can see crude oil has faced resistance and pulled back, returning below the 48 hours moving average. Meanwhile, the MACD double line and energy bars are converging around the zero axis. The sell limit could be placed, stop loss is mandatory.
