Technical Analysis

Bearish Preference: Sell position is envisaged if price trades below 40.20 with take profit at 39.32

Bullish Preference: Buy position is envisaged if price trades above 40.57 with take profit at 41.34

Fundamentals:

No major economic data with direct bearing on the commodity

Comment: Black gold continued its losses from last week in the early session as a rising number of fresh COVID-19 infections in Europe and the United States dampen demand. The commodity is also pressured by the prospects of over-supply, as Libya's National Oil Corp on Friday ended its force majeure on exports. The bearish pressure on the commodity is rising as the OPEC+ ministerial meeting couldn't propose a new policy.
