CL falls below $100! Is the market cooling off or getting ready for the next move higher? 📉
$CL (WTI Crude Oil) took a sharp breath after reaching a peak within 24 hours at 106.98, then slipped again below the key $100 level to 99.56 (+4.57%).
⚠️ Technical analysis and key factors:
Break below 1H MA7 average: Price lost the immediate dynamic support at 1H MA7 (100.92), suggesting a short-term correction phase.
