Iran denies dropping preconditions amid ‘very productive’ three-hour UN talks in New York

Trump says further talks possible as barrel of Brent crude falls to below $100 for first time in two weeks Iran has pushed back on claims that it dropped former preconditions for reopening the strait of Hormuz in surprise talks held in New York under the mediation of Qatar between Tehran’s foreign minister, Abbas Araghchi, and Donald Trump’s envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner. Trump said the three-hour talks held in a room at the UN headquarters had gone very well and been very productive. He suggested further talks were possible imminently, which led to the price of a barrel of Brent crude to fall to below $100 (£75) for the first time in two weeks. Witkoff said the talks had been “encouraging, constructive and successful”. Continue reading...

Saudi Arabia Restarts East-West Oil Pipeline

Saudi Arabia has restarted its East-West oil pipeline, restoring at least some flow through the 4-million-barrel-per-day route that had become the kingdom’s main escape hatch around the Strait of Hormuz. The pipeline is running at a low rate for now, according to Reuters sources, with Aramco working to return flows to roughly 4 million bpd. A full restart could still take weeks. One cargo was scheduled to load at the Red Sea port of Yanbu Tuesday for China. Oil traders didn’t wait for full capacity. Brent saw a temporary dip of more…

Oil Prices Reverse Course as Traders Watch US-Iran Diplomacy

Crude oil prices, which had been falling since last week, today reversed course and made gains ahead of a UN General Assembly session that many hope will yield some progress on peace talks between the U.S. and Iran. As indicated by the latest oil price move, not everyone shares that hope, with Brent crude trading at 101.69 per barrel at the time of writing, and West Texas Intermediate at $93.38 per barrel. However, some observers see oil’s change of direction differently. “The move higher in WTI and the stronger open in Brent have the…

Saudi Export Pivot Sends Brent Below $105

Saudi Aramco shifts crude exports to the Persian Gulf, easing supply fears and pushing Brent below $105. Friday, September 18, 2026 Last week’s market panic about the 7 million b/d East-West pipeline remaining offline for weeks gave way to a slightly more nuanced outlook this week, with Saudi Aramco re-orienting all its loadings to the Persian Gulf. Whilst flows from Ras Tanura still carry the risk of potential Iranian drone strikes in the Strait, the fact that Saudi Aramco keeps on offering crude to Asian buyers (in contrast to its Europeans…

Oil Prices Head for Weekly Loss as Saudi Export Fears Ease

Crude oil prices were on course for a weekly decline after a three-week series of gains, as traders' fears about Saudi Arabia’s ability to continue exporting oil appeared to have been quelled by reports about ship-to-ship transfers in the Gulf of Oman. At the time of writing, Brent crude was trading at $103.65 per barrel, with West Texas Intermediate at $101.04 per barrel, both set for a modest loss. However, it bears noting that both remain above $100 per barrel, which keeps the pressure on end fuel prices that are frustrating drivers and…

XAUUSD — Post-Fed FVG Repricing Buy Setup

Gold is trading around $4,320 after a highly volatile post-FOMC session. The Fed raised rates by 25 bp to 3.75%–4.00% and signaled that additional tightening may still be needed, pushing the U.S. dollar to a seven-week high and lifting short-term Treasury yields. Despite that hawkish backdrop, Gold recovered more than 1% from the post-Fed low as traders reassessed positioning and oil prices eased from recent highs. Brent crude has also pulled back toward $104, reducing some of the immediate energy-driven inflation pressure, although broader Middle East risks remain elevated. SMC View H1 price remains inside the broader descending channel, so the higher-timeframe structure is not fully bullish yet. However, the latest move swept buy-side liquidity near $4,350–$4,360, delivered a strong bearish displacement, and then reacted sharply from the lower portion of the channel. The current rebound may represent bullish repricing after that liquidity event. The nearby FVG around $4,285–$4,305 is the key mitigation area to watch. A controlled pullback into this imbalance, followed by a bullish MSS or CHOCH, could confirm that buyers are rebuilding short-term order flow toward the upper liquidity zones. Main Trading Scenario Buy Priority: $4,285–$4,305 Condition: Wait for Gold to retrace into the FVG / discount area and form bullish rejection, followed by a lower-timeframe bullish MSS or CHOCH. Entry: $4,285–$4,305 after confirmation SL: Below $4,260 and the reaction low TP1: $4,345–$4,365 TP2: $4,390–$4,405 Key Zones to Watch $4,401.403 — Premium Bearish OB $4,345–$4,365 — Reclaimed buy-side liquidity / resistance $4,285–$4,305 — Main FVG buy zone $4,225–$4,245 — External SSL / Deep Discount Demand $4,260 — Immediate bullish invalidation area Descending channel resistance — Major structural barrier Prime Gold View The buy bias is focused on confirmed repricing from the FVG, not chasing the current recovery. If buyers defend $4,285–$4,305 and produce a clean bullish structure shift, Gold could rotate back toward $4,350–$4,365, with the $4,400 Premium Bearish OB becoming the larger upside objective. The broader channel remains bearish, so confirmation is essential before treating the recovery as sustainable. No confirmation, no trade.
