Oil Gives Back Its Gains 20/11/2025

WTI reversed lower after failing to hold above $60.00, sliding to a $58.70 low.

Technical outlook

  • 50-SMA (4H): Price is trading below the average, adding downside pressure.
  • Pattern/structure: A developing bearish setup (with lower highs) supports continuation risk to the downside.

Base case (bearish while below $60.00 / $60.45)

  • A decisive break/4H close below $58.90 would likely press toward $58.50, then $57.60 if momentum builds.

Invalidation / bounce path

  • Reclaiming and holding above $60.45 would neutralize immediate downside and open room for a corrective recovery.

Event risk

  • U.S. NFP, unemployment, and average earnings today could spark sharp volatility—tighten risk controls around the release.

Risk note
Backdrop remains headline-sensitive. Use prudent sizing and firm stops; reassess quickly if trigger levels give way.
