Over the past month, Brent has advanced about 42.46%, and its 1-day technical profile currently points to a Strong Buy, indicating momentum remains skewed to the upside despite the latest pullback. WTI has climbed roughly 39.61% in the same period, and its near-term technical outlook likewise signals a Strong Buy, suggesting traders still see meaningful upside risk if geopolitical tensions re-ignite or supply expectations tighten again.
