Oil Prices Continue to Rise Amid Middle East Tensions and Stalled US-Iran Talks
📊 BRENT — Piyasa Yorumu
▲ up · 70%Oil prices continue their upward trend, driven by geopolitical tensions in the Middle East and a deadlock in US-Iran negotiations. Technical indicators support this view: the RSI at 68 is approaching overbought territory but is not yet overbought, while the MACD remains above its signal line and in positive territory. Prices are trading above the 20- and 50-day moving averages, and the short-term uptrend persists. However, the elevated RSI level and a sharp 4.7% gain over the past 24 hours introduce some risk of profit-taking or consolidation in the near term. Overall, if geopolitical risks persist, the rally is expected to continue, but caution is warranted due to overbought signals.
