News surrounding incoming US stimulus has been bullish for Brent crude oil, as traders factor in improved economic activity in the United States over the coming months.<\/p><p>Traders also have to factor in current demand and supply issues. News that the Biden administration will rescind the Keystone pipeline, which is located in the United States and Canada is arguably bullish on the supply side for oil prices.<\/p><p>Additionally, recent news that Saudi Arabia have cut output has been a positive catalyst for oil prices. The ongoing trend of growing global COVID-19 infections prompted the Saudi\u2019s to cut output in order to avoid a repeat of 2020 when oil prices collapsed.<\/p><p>A number of investment banks have also made bullish oil price forecasts for 2021, further downplaying fears of any imminent correction in the price of oil. Calls have ranged from $60.00 to $75.00 per barrel in 2021. China is also driving for demand for oil as its economy continues to grow and expand.<\/p><p>Looking at the bearish side for oil, the influential oil agency, the IEA, has recently cut its forecast for oil demand in 2021 as COVID-19 cases continue to surge. The agency note that recent theme of global lockdowns will keep a lid on oil demand.<\/p><p>On the technical side, a number of bearish divergences have formed for Brent crude oil, while a notable upside target of a bullish price pattern has been reached this week. While this is no guarantee of a price correction, it is certainly noteworthy.<\/p><p>Furthermore, market sentiment towards Brent Crude is bullish, and around multi-months high in terms of sentiment. The ActivTrader Market Sentiment tool shows that some 62 percent of traders are bullish towards further gains in Brent oil.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-deb6810 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"deb6810\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-row\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-802b8a9\" data-id=\"802b8a9\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b9a90fc elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"b9a90fc\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-image\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"316\" height=\"121\" src=\"https:\/\/youtrading.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/CHART-1-10.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-2769\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-94b9c25 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"94b9c25\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-row\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-0653715\" data-id=\"0653715\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-61bc61e elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"61bc61e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-text-editor elementor-clearfix\">\n\t\t\t\t<p><strong>Brent Crude Oil Short-Term Technical Analysis<\/strong><\/p><p>According to the four-hour time frame a bearish head and shoulders pattern has started to form and remains valid while price is capped below the $57.35 level.
