Brent’s Fragile Recovery Masks Investor Exodus
Brent crude's apparent rebound to $94.92 belies a deteriorating market structure. The commodity remains trapped in a bearish technical pattern following a 28.8% decline from March peaks, with shrinking volumes and open interest revealing capital flight.
Nearly 30% of traders have exited positions, creating a divergence between price action and participation. This erosion of liquidity suggests the current uptick may precede sharper moves rather than signaling sustainable strength.
