Highlights
- SLB/USD remains under persistent selling pressure as it trades below key short- and medium-term moving averages.

Momentum signals reinforce downside as technical barriers strengthen
On the hourly chart, SLB trades below the MA-20 ($55.88) and MA-50 ($56.14), both confirming short- and medium-term selling pressure. The daily chart shows persistent long-term support above the MA-200 at $44.58, while the Ichimoku Kijun level at $55.46 presents immediate resistance. Momentum signals reinforce this technical picture: the MACD shows a sell signal, ADX remains neutral, and the RSI is oversold at 32.24. Additional indicators including Stoch RSI, CCI, and BBP continue to signal strong seller dominance. The Awesome Oscillator also confirms negative momentum, with all indicator readings aligning toward a persistent downside bias and no notable divergences.
Consolidation scenario prevails as downside risk escalates near support
For the next several trading sessions, SLB is expected to trade within a volatility band of $53.27 to $55.47. Given the clearly high downside probability and limited chance of an upward reversal, a base case scenario would see the price consolidate sideways within this range. Downside momentum would accelerate if support at $53.27 breaks, while any reversal scenario requires a push above the immediate $55.46 resistance.
Earlier, analysts noted that short-term bearish momentum had emerged for Schlumberger, with sellers maintaining clear dominance. The latest technical signals reinforce this view, underscoring that a decisive move below the current support level could trigger accelerated downside risk in the upcoming sessions.
