Brent stalls below 200-DMA, downside risks mount - Société Générale

update 2025.10.01 17:43

Brent remains capped below its 200-DMA near $70, with repeated failures to break higher raising the risk of another downward leg toward $65 and potentially $63-61, Société Générale's FX analysts note.

Key resistance at $70 caps Brent rally

"Brent has consistently struggled to surpass the 200-day moving average (DMA), indicating a lack of sustained upward momentum. The moving average, which is currently positioned around $70.00/70.75, acts as a short-term resistance zone."

"If Brent fails to break above this hurdle, there is a risk of another downward move. A break below the recent pivot low at $65.00 could trigger an extended decline toward $63.30/63.00 and projections near $60.90."
