Fundamental Development Oil prices dropped more than 1% on Thursday in a volatile week as economic concerns and recession fears dogged global financial markets, outweighing supply concerns and geopolitical tensions in Europe. Brent crude futures slipped $1.25, or 1.2%, to $106.26 a barrel. WTI crude futures fell $1.24, or 1.2%, to $104.47 a barrel. U.S. headline CPI for the 12 months to April jumped 8.3%, reaffirming concerns that interest rates will need to rise quickly to tame it. On Wednesday, oil prices jumped 5% after Russia sanctioned 31 companies based in countries that imposed sanctions on Moscow after the Ukraine invasion. In the United States, commercial crude inventories rose last week because of a record release of oil from the U.S. strategic reserves, but gasoline stockpiles declined ahead of the peak summer driving demand season, the Energy Information Administration said on Wednesday.
Short Term Technical View: In 1-hour chart, XTIUSD is trading Lower line of Bollinger band indicator. CCI indicator also showing bullishness at bottom line level, and XTIUSD is trying to pull back at today pivot level 102.10. As per the 1-hour chart buy on dip, strategy is good for XTIUSD. As per my view, XTIUSD buy range is 102.10 to 101.50 and there is very strong support zone at 100.
Alternative Scenario: If XTIUSD will trade below today pivot level 102.10 in U.S. Session so it will be, give great opportunity to sell with the target of 100.50 with the stop loss of 103.10.
