Saudi Arabia and Russia, two of the world's largest oil producers, have decided to extend cuts to their oil production to support oil prices and boost income. This move comes despite weakened demand due to the sluggish economy.
Brent: is there a bottom?
2020-01-20 • Updated
On the W1, Brent oil formed a bullish “hammer”. The pattern appeared near the 50-week MA (64.80). This week opened with a gap to the upside – the market is optimistic about the demand for the commodity after the US-China trade deal. By applying the Fibonacci tool to the January decline, we get the upside targets at 66.40 and 67.25. Corrections to the support in the 65.35/10 area represent potential buy opportunities.
Trade idea
BUY 65.35; TP 66.40; SL: 65.05
Notice that to trade Brent, you need to choose BRN-20H in your MetaTrader.
