front month
Discussion focused on front-month crude oil, particularly WTI and the July contract, amid uncertain peace-deal and Strait-reopening prospects. Erik Townsend described nearly a 10% fall in front-month WTI despite Iran showing no willingness to compromise on nuclear material, while Patrick Ceresna viewed the sell-off as flow-driven and treated weakness as a buying opportunity 1. Ceresna also said a failed peace deal could drive the July contract above $105 toward $115–$120, whereas a genuine resolution would cause a correction 2.
