PANews, June 22 – Crude oil opened higher amid tightening Middle East tensions, then plunged from highs as U.S.-Iran negotiations progressed and risk premiums receded, resulting in an overall "roller coaster" session. According to data from the Gate platform, WTI crude oil (CLUSDT) is now at $75.79 (-2.66%), with a 24-hour low of $75.03; Brent crude oil (BZ) is now at $79.16 (-2.78%), with a 24-hour low of $78.37. Against the backdrop of low-level choppy trading, related contract trading volumes remain active.
