Looking at crude oil recently, the weekly chart has been oscillating within a narrow range, with short-term moving averages stuck together showing no signs of shorting. Overall, there is a lack of a clear direction. After the market opened today, the oil price quickly dipped and then rebounded, leaving some room for an upward move in the short term. However, don’t be fooled by this rebound; rushing to chase the long side could easily lead to traps. The key is to wait for a proper correction before taking action.

Trading idea: Consider short positions in the 57.9-58.0 range. If the price retraces to around 56.2-56.3, you can try to go long. The specific entry timing should be monitored in real-time during trading, adjusting the strategy based on the current candlestick patterns and volume.

I'm really hesitant to buy into this oil price rebound; narrow-range fluctuations are the most annoying.

Still fluctuating within a narrow range there, this track is a bit blocked. Let's wait until the adjustment is complete before launching.

The recent rebound in oil prices is really easy to get trapped in. I won't chase it anymore. Wait, can we really bottom out at 56.2? Narrow fluctuations are the most annoying. When can we get a clear direction? Short at 57.9? Seems like we need to observe the volume a bit more. This market feels so dull. Maybe wait until the adjustment is complete before taking action.

The recent oil price movement is indeed easy to fall into traps; wait a bit longer before acting for more stability.

It's another narrow range torture; I've seen this kind of oil price behavior too many times. Wait until the adjustment is in place before acting; don't be fooled by the rebound, I think it's okay. Try to test the breakout at 56.2-56.3; I've noted this level.

Oil prices are really annoying with this repeated fluctuation, it feels like sleepwalking It's easy to get caught off guard when chasing longs, better wait until the adjustment is in place I need to keep an eye on the 56.2 level, the opportunity for a long position might be there Must watch closely during the session, don't just look at the K-line and volume blindly Is there a shorting opportunity at 57.9-58.0? It’s indeed worth trying, but the risk is also there This market is just shaking out traders, don’t be fooled by the rebound

This rebound is indeed easy to be fooled. I have suffered losses here before, so I still need to wait until the adjustment is complete before taking action.

Oh, oil prices are playing with my heartbeat again. It feels like they try to fool me every time. That 57.9 level definitely requires caution. I'll wait and see. I'm interested in the 56.2-56.3 range. I'll watch the order book and speak accordingly. Narrow-range fluctuations are the most annoying. It feels like I can't make any money. Everyone says don't chase the rebound, but I can't help myself. This time, I really need to listen. But on the other hand, watching the market all the time is too exhausting. I'll wait for a proper correction before taking action. Can it just drop straight to 56? That way, I can sleep peacefully.
