Understanding Crude Oil (WTI)
WTI Crude Oil is the most actively traded energy commodity in the world. Its price is driven by a complex interplay of OPEC+ supply decisions, US inventory data, geopolitical risk in oil-producing regions, and global demand forecasts. Highly volatile around weekly EIA reports.
Oil's strong trending behaviour and volatility around weekly inventory releases create excellent short-term trading opportunities for traders with defined risk parameters.
