Crude oil futures have rebounded from a 40% decline since April, testing key moving averages and signaling a potential short-term reversal. After failing to sustain a break below February's lows, buyers reclaimed control, pushing prices above the 100-hour and 200-hour moving averages. This shift suggests a temporary technical bias favoring bulls, though sustainability remains uncertain. The next critical targets are $71.56 and $72.50, with a breakout above the 200-day moving average ($73.98) potentially signaling a broader recovery. Traders should monitor these levels to assess whether the rally gains momentum or faces renewed selling pressure. The geopolitical context, particularly the Iran-US/Israel dynamics, adds complexity to the technical outlook.
