Crude oil prices can’t seem to catch a bid, setting freshly monthly lows in today’s session. The downtrend from the June and July swing highs remains in place, but support may be nearing around 85.41, the October 2021 high.

On the supply side, there are signs of progress towards a revitalized Iran nuclear deal, which would bring Iranian oil back to the market.
The one-two punch of weaker Chinese demand plus increased Iranian supply has helped drive crude oil prices to a fresh August low, and their lowest level since the Russian invasion of Ukraine began in February. The technical picture isn’t faring any better, with the downtrend in place since the June high remaining.
