Current trend
Prices for the benchmark Brent Crude Oil grade are correcting in a local uptrend, holding slightly above 72.00.
The dynamics of quotations were due to the report of the International Energy Agency (IEA), which indicates that almost all countries exceeded oil production restrictions. Thus, in August, OPEC countries produced 41.46M barrels per day of oil, which is 0.92M barrels per day above the quota of 40.54M barrels per day. Among the regions that exceeded their restrictions were Russia and Saudi Arabia, and the figure for non-OPEC producers was 14.09M barrels per day, 1.51M barrels per day above the quota. As a result, IEA experts forecast an increase in oil supply by the end of the year by 0.6M barrels and by 2.1M barrels per day in 2025, which creates a significant surplus that puts pressure on the quotes. If these data coincide with OPEC estimates, a revision of production restrictions is likely, given that the organization has previously compensated for such dynamics.
Meanwhile, according to data from the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME Group), the daily trading volume of oil contracts fell to 920.0–930.0K from an average of 1.23–1.26M at the beginning of the month. The option position, the first signal of upcoming volatility in the market, also decreased: yesterday, it amounted to 181.9K, much less than 312.0–320.0K last week.
Support and resistance
On the daily chart, the trading instrument is held below the correction channel 85.00–73.00.
Technical indicators are slowing down the sell signal: fast EMAs of the Alligator indicator are approaching the signal line, and the AO histogram has formed the first ascending bar in the sell zone.
Resistance levels: 73.20, 77.00.
Support levels: 71.20, 68.75.
