However, in previous negotiations, the United States did not address the issues but instead imposed its own demands on Iran, forcing it to surrender. Ghalibaf pointed out that the United States demanded that Iran reduce its missile range, but Irans self-defense was "non-negotiable" and it was impossible for Iran to accept this demand. He said that Europe, under direct orders from the United States, activated the "snapback" sanctions mechanism, failing to demonstrate its independent will. Due to its obedience to the United States, Europe no longer plays any role in the Iranian nuclear issue. Irans suspension of cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency was the "most important and accurate" decision.December 3 - Crude oil prices fell in early Asian trading after a volatile day, with ANZ research analysts stating in a commentary that geopolitical tensions disrupted the market.

WTI Price Analysis: Regains $82.50 after bouncing off a four-month-old support

During Thursday's Asian session, WTI crude oil continues the previous day's bounce from an eight-month low to $82.50. In doing so, the price of black gold reverses course from the downwardly sloped support line established in May.

 

Although a nearly oversold RSI and the crucial support line may have spurred the latest rebound in the WTI price, negative MACD indications and a pause in the RSI recovery pose a challenge to the WTI bulls.

 

Nonetheless, the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level of December 2021 to January 2022 on the upside, near $86.85, would have presented formidable barrier to the recovery swings.

 

Even if the price surpasses the $86.85 barrier, the $90.00 barrier and the 50-day moving average level near $93.30 could test WTI buyers before they gain control.

 

In contrast, a bearish break of the stated support line near $80.50 would require confirmation from the $80.00 round number.

 

The focus will then shift to the $76.00 Fibonacci retracement level after that.

 

Overall, WTI crude oil prices are anticipated to continue gloomy, but a short-term recovery cannot be ruled out.
