The current setup suggests indecision, with neither bulls nor bears in full control. For any sustained upside to develop, oil must reclaim the $63\u2013$65 range, which has repeatedly acted as resistance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On the downside, a confirmed break below $55 would likely accelerate selling pressure toward the $52\u2013$50 zone.
