Over the past week, prices have taken a beating, now trading around $78.00 per barrel. What triggered this? Tentative progress in US-Iran negotiations and early signs that tankers are navigating the waterway again. With a few vessels already having passed through, the market has begun to discount shortage fears, leaving sellers firmly in the driver&#8217;s seat.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>The big question now is how quickly flows will normalize. If traffic picks up steadily\u2014and the fragile US-Iran dialogue doesn&#8217;t fall apart\u2014Brent could remain under relentless pressure. Adding to the bearish cocktail, Washington handed out temporary waivers on Iranian oil, raising the odds of a supply swell. But don&#8217;t hold your breath. A full-scale recovery is far from being guaranteed, with trust between the two sides still hanging by a thread. Any new rhetoric about shipping risks could swiftly snap the geopolitical premium back into place.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Demand isn&#8217;t doing oil any favors, either. OPEC&#8217;s latest monthly report cut its 2026 growth forecast once again, underscoring a more cautious consumption outlook. The International Energy Agency (IEA) is on the same page, pointing to waning fuel appetite and the threat of a supply overhang. Anyway, it admits that the rebound could be sluggish, given the political and logistical bottlenecks, which are at play.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Where does this leave us? The fundamental landscape for Brent crude is tilted heavily to the downside. Between the evaporating risk premium, looming supply waves, and a dimming demand horizon, the path of least resistance looks lower. The next big floor to watch is the $70.00 psychological threshold.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><strong>The final recommendation:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Sell Brent crude at the current price, aiming to reach $70.00 per barrel within one week.<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 To shield your position from adverse market movements, place a Stop Loss order just above resistance, at $81.50.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Market analysis by financial analysts and experienced traders.
