Oil falls to fresh two-week low, down by over 3% on risk-off sentiment

Technical Analysis

Oil drops to its lowest levels since 15 September

Oil isn’t spared from the souring risk mood today as it faces a more than 3% drop ahead of European trading, as sentiment soured following news of Trump testing positive for the coronavirus earlier.

Price has fallen from $38.30 to around $37.30 levels currently and is testing some near-term support around $37.37. If sellers can break below that, it will keep the bearish momentum going in search of the September low @ $36.13.
