Any new US restrictions on refined product exports could tighten global fuel supplies, potentially providing further support to oil prices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Beyond supply-side developments, broader oil sentiment will remain sensitive to movements in the US Dollar Index (DXY), global interest rate expectations, and macroeconomic indicators that influence industrial activity and energy demand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Trade USOUSD with VT Markets<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Oil prices can respond quickly to changes in global supply expectations, geopolitical developments, inventory data and shipping disruptions.
