Brent: Watching support at 84/83 dollars – Societe Generale

Societe Generale analysts highlight that Brent has pulled back after testing resistance at $95, a level defined by a prior downside gap and a descending trend line from April. Prices are drifting toward the $84/83 area, where the 50-DMA and 200-DMA converge, seen as potential support, with failure to hold above that zone risking a deeper decline despite possible interim bounces.
