Oil prices are basically stable. The previous gains have since entered a consolidation phase, mainly due to the tightening internal situation in Iran, which has weakened market expectations of Middle Eastern supply disruptions. In simple terms, as long as a real supply crisis does not erupt, crude oil will find it difficult to continue rising. This is an important reference point for commodities and related asset allocations.

Just consolidate if you want, anyway I already wasn't optimistic about this wave.

Without a real crisis, it won't move up. To put it simply, it still depends on whether the Middle East is really going to blow up or not.

Basically, without a black swan event, oil prices will stay flat. This round of Middle East tensions was a false alarm.

Whenever the situation in Iran tightens, oil prices cool down—how many times has this trick been played? A real supply crisis must erupt to push oil prices up; otherwise, they are destined to consolidate.

It's another consolidation. To be honest, this wave of the Iran situation is still just a false alarm.

Basically, it was a false alarm. Iran didn't actually bomb anything, so everyone should stay calm.

Just consolidate sideways, anyway I didn't make much profit. Let's wait for a real black swan event.
