Group 1: Report Overview - Report Title: "Hualian Futures Crude Oil Weekly: Short - term Focus on Geopolitical Disturbances" [2] - Report Date: 20250118 [2] - Analyst: Huang Guiren [2] Group 2: Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the report Group 3: Core Viewpoints - Overall, crude oil supply and demand remain in an oversupplied state, and global oil inventories are at a high level. There are still short - term geopolitical disturbances between the US and Venezuela, Iran, etc. Technically, it mainly shows a range - bound pattern. For mid - to long - term futures trading, it should still be treated bearishly, but in the short - term, attention should be paid to geopolitical pulse - like disturbances. One can buy continuous call options for protection, and the resistance level for the SC2603 contract is at 450 - 460 yuan/barrel.
