Crude Oil holds $60-64 range despite Saudi production increase push

WTI Crude Oil remains range-bound between $60.00 support and $64.00 resistance, showing resilience despite Saudi Arabia's push for faster production increases. The market appears to have already priced in the supply-side dynamics, with traders now focusing on demand prospects. Oil demand is expected to improve in coming months as global economic activity strengthens, though renewed trade tensions pose the primary risk to this outlook. The 4-hour chart confirms the month-long consolidation pattern, with neither bulls nor bears able to establish dominance. This stability in oil prices could support commodity currencies like CAD and NOK while potentially limiting upside for safe-haven currencies. Traders should monitor the $60-64 range boundaries for potential breakout opportunities, with a move above $64 likely targeting $67, while a break below $60 could accelerate selling toward $57.
