WTI oil gained some ground as U.S. – Russia talks on Ukraine peace deal failed to reach breakthrough.
From the technical point of view, oil prices remain range-bound. WTI oil needs to settle above the $60.50 level to gain upside momentum in the near term.
Brent oil moved higher as geopolitical risk premium increased. However, traders remained worried about rising supply, so Brent oil failed to gain sustainable upside momentum.
