Highlights

COP faces persistent short- and medium-term selling pressure, trading below key moving averages with potential long-term support nearby.
Momentum and trend indicators signal weak upside and continued seller dominance, though some conflicting signals suggest limited conviction.
Price is expected to consolidate between $105.00 and $113.00 next week, with a low probability of a strong breakout and key resistance above $115.50.

Support holds as selling persists below key moving averages

COP ($109.97) is currently trading below the MA-20 ($115.46) and MA-50 ($118.80), indicating continued short- and medium-term selling pressure, while it sits above the MA-200 ($105.20), which may provide underlying long-term support. The Ichimoku Kijun at $116.51 stands as immediate resistance; near-term support is at the MA-200 ($105.20) and MA-100 ($118.07), while resistance levels are found at MA-20 ($115.46) and the Kijun ($116.51) as key markers above the price.

Mixed momentum as buyers struggle despite recent weekly recovery

Momentum indicators on D1 reveal weak upside impetus, with MACD signaling sell and a low ADX reading (13.14) pointing to a lack of strong trend direction. RSI (38.30), CCI (-147.41), and BBP (-3.86) all indicate oversold conditions and suggest sellers continue to dominate, although Stoch RSI gives a strong buy signal and HMA biases slightly bullish, resulting in conflicting signals. AO also supports the prevailing selling pressure. Over the past week, COP has risen $2.23 (2.07%) from last week’s close of $107.74 and is holding in the upper part of the weekly range, with volatility amplitude at 4.56%. This reflects a moderate recovery from the week’s low but mixed directional signals.

Sideways bias expected as low breakout odds cap direction

Looking ahead, the expected price range for the next week is $105.00–$113.00, based on recent weekly volatility and anchored above the 52-week low ($85.57) but below the 52-week high ($135.87). For direction, there is a very low probability (less than 20%) of a significant price increase, given that only MACD on W1 flashes a strong buy while RSI and ADX on W1 remain in sell mode and the MA-50 on W1 is moderately supportive. The baseline scenario is sideways movement between $105.00 and $113.00. A bullish scenario would require breaking above $115.50 resistance, while a drop below $105.00 would signal a bearish extension. Given the weak momentum and conflicting signals, a neutral to slightly cautious outlook is warranted in the short term.
