📊 BRENT — Piyasa Yorumu
▲ up · 75%The news points to a serious risk of oil supply disruption, which will push prices higher in the short term. Technical indicators support this view: the RSI at 66 indicates a strong uptrend, the MACD is above its signal line and positive, and the price is above both the 20-day and 50-day moving averages. The 3.3% increase in the last 24 hours confirms the impact of the news. However, I believe the rally may be limited due to the RSI approaching overbought territory and geopolitical risks being quickly priced in.
