February 3, 2026 WTI Crude Oil Analysis



In the Asian market early trading, WTI crude oil is around $62.40 per barrel, down more than 4.71% overnight, marking the largest single-day decline in seven months. The short-term trend is weakening, but the medium-term upward logic remains unchanged.

On the news front, Trump stated that the US and Iran are "seriously negotiating," easing market concerns about Middle Eastern supply risks; warmer US weather, a sharp drop in diesel futures, and a strengthening dollar have collectively weighed on oil prices. However, domestic refined oil prices will be adjusted at 24:00 on February 3, with an expected increase of 205/195 yuan per ton, as the average price during the pricing cycle remains relatively high.

From a technical perspective, short-term support is at $60.5-61, with strong support at $59.5; resistance is first seen at $63.7-64.7. The daily chart remains bullish, with only a short-term correction mainly driven by oscillation.

In terms of trading, avoid chasing the rally. Wait for a pullback to the $61-62 range to buy low, with a stop-loss below $59, aiming first for a $64 target. If encountering resistance during the rebound, consider light short positions for quick entry and exit. During oscillation phases, do not go all-in; set proper stop-losses and follow the broader trend of tightening supply for more stability.
