10-23 19:28	Markets by Kinetiq	Other	WTI Crude Oil is back above $100, up 6% this week. Houthi strikes on Saudi Arabia are escalating, ship attacks near Hormuz just hit a record month, and US crude stocks have fallen three weeks straight. @Markets_xyz on X ↗
10-23 10:17	SoDEX	Other	🛢️ $CL: Will Oil Keep Rising? 🔥 Middle East tensions are heating up! Where will oil prices head next? 👀 ✅ Vote below ✅ Share your $CL position ✅ Comment your prediction! 📊 POLL: Where will $CL be by Dec 31, 2026? @sodex_official on X ↗
10-22 15:08	BingX	Other	When commodities make headlines, depth matters 📊 Trade GOLD, WTI, BRENT, and SILVER perpetuals with deeper order books on #BingXTradFi. Up to 5.1x the depth vs No.2 (GOLD-USDT, 100 bps). See the breakdown 👇 @BingXOfficial on X ↗
10-20 08:13	ApeX Omni	Other	Oil cracked. WTI -4.7% is the biggest move on the tape. bitcoin:native $81,703 -1.3%, ethereum:native $2,395 -1.5%, while $NDAQ added 1.1%. $527M went into spot bitcoin ETFs, the best day since September, with IBIT alone taking $665M. Fear and greed 55. @OfficialApeXdex on X ↗
10-19 19:35	BingX	Other	Brent topped $110, WTI broke $100, and diesel hit records as Hormuz attacks escalate. Energy rallied while the Nasdaq fell 4.5%. Oil is back driving inflation and rate fears 🛢️ @BingXOfficial on X ↗
10-19 10:35	Phemex	Other	WTI just printed below $97 while Brent holds ~$108. Oil’s pullback after Friday’s spike is more technical + Russia supply hope than a clean demand collapse. For crypto traders, lower energy costs can ease inflation pressure — but geopolitics still keep the floor elevated. Execution quality matters more than the narrative when macro signals flip. @Phemex_official on X ↗
