WTI: En route to the November 2022 high
WTI prices extended the rally for yet another session on Monday, closing above the $92.00 mark for the first time since November 2022. The extra uptick was on the back of declining open interest and volume, which hints at the likelihood that a potential corrective move could be in the offing. On the upside, the next hurdle remains at the November 2022 peak at $93.73 (November 7).
