West Texas Intermediate crude oil remains highly volatile after surging to $119.54, its highest level since 2022, amid supply fears linked to the US–Iran war 2026 and potential disruption at the Strait of Hormuz.

Technicals show $102.25 as a key support level that could sustain another bullish leg.
