CL/USDT PERPETUAL: OIL SLIPS AS MOMENTUM FADES
WTI Crude is feeling the heat and the chart isn't looking pretty for the bulls right now.
Looking at the 15m timeframe, $CL has been on a consistent downward slide after failing to hold the levels above 89.50. We are seeing a pattern of lower highs and lower lows, which is a classic signal that the bears are currently in the driver's seat.
The price is currently sitting at 89.06, struggling to stay above the critical 89.00 psychological support. A major point of concern is the MA60 (89.15), which is currently trending downward and acting as a hard resistance. Every time the price tries to poke its head above that line, it gets slapped back down.
If this 89.00 floor gives way, we could see a quick drop toward the 24h low of 88.50. For the trend to flip, we would need to see a high-volume breakout above 89.20, but with the way the current candles are printing, the sellers seem much more aggressive than the buyers.
Volume is relatively steady, but the lack of a strong bounce at these levels suggests that buyers are hesitant to step in. The chart structure is leaning heavily into a distribution phase where the price is just bleeding out slowly.
The overall price action shows that the asset is struggling to find a bottom and remains pinned under its short-term moving averages.
Short-term Outlook: Bearish
