Frequently Asked Questions

Q What is the WTI forecast for tomorrow?

WTI is projected near $49.10 versus the latest reference around $47.21. That implies a modeled move of +4.00% over the next day, with realized prices still sensitive to intraday volatility.

Q What does the 7-day outlook suggest for WTI?

The weekly model points to $51.92, which maps to an expected drift of +9.98% from current conditions. This horizon reacts quickly to momentum shifts, so breaks at nearby levels can change the path faster than long-term targets.

Q How should I read the 1-month and 1-year targets?

The 1-month target is $55.45 (+17.44%), while the 1-year target is $58.93 (+24.81%). The monthly view tracks prevailing trend pressure, and the yearly view reflects broader cycle assumptions and macro sensitivity.

Q Why does the 5-year scenario differ from shorter forecasts?

The long-horizon scenario sits near $63.35 with a modeled change of +34.19%. It compounds cycle continuation assumptions over time, so it should be treated as a scenario envelope rather than a precise endpoint.

Q Where are the most important support and resistance zones right now?

Nearest resistance is around $49.48, while nearest support is around $44.94. A clean break above resistance improves continuation odds, while repeated closes under support raise downside risk.

Q How fresh are the recent high/low milestones?

The latest observed session range is roughly $44.16 to $66.96. These checkpoints are rebuilt from the live market snapshot so milestone context updates with each data refresh.
