|---|---|---|
| Neutral | 8,132.00, 8,096.00, 8,043.00 | 8,188.00 |
MCX contracts keep trading into the evening, so the live price can differ from these figures. The levels here use the 19 November 2026 futures contract and its previous settlement of 8,096.00.
For traders, the crude oil price prediction for tomorrow is a framework for planning risk, with position size and stop levels left to the individual.
Key Drivers for Thursday
- Crude oil rose 1.01 percent from a previous settlement of 8,096.00 and traded above its open of 8,132.00.
- The 19 November contract is close to expiry, and the 18 December contract was at 8,117.00, up 1.16 percent, so the next contract is also in play.
- Global supply headlines and the rupee-dollar rate, which both feed into MCX crude prices.
Ankit Jaiswal and Kunal Singla flag the first half hour of Thursday’s trade as the point to revisit this crude oil price prediction for tomorrow.
Anyone following the crude oil price prediction for tomorrow should keep the opening range in view before reading too much into early moves.

These are educational views, not buy calls, and each should be checked against your own risk plan before acting.
How Wednesday’s Broader Session Unfolded
The Nifty 50 closed at 25,255.05 on Wednesday, up 0.84 percent from Monday’s close of 25,044.65, in the first regular session after Tuesday’s Diwali Balipratipada holiday. It opened with a gap-up at 25,337.80, touched a high of 25,424.35, dipped to 25,095.35 and finished about 169 points below the high. The Sensex closed at 81,879.40, up 0.95 percent, while the Bank Nifty closed at 60,792.40, up 1.76 percent, about 602 points below its high of 61,394.30. Nifty Next 50 rose 0.96 percent, Nifty Midcap 50 rose 0.93 percent and the Nifty 500 rose 0.90 percent, so the rise was broad rather than limited to the heavyweights. Nifty PSU Bank jumped 2.94 percent and Nifty Auto rose 2.14 percent, while Nifty IT fell 0.53 percent and Nifty Pharma fell 0.41 percent. India VIX, the market’s fear gauge, rose 0.92 percent to 17.58 from 17.42, after trading between 15.64 and 17.83 during the day. In the options market, the Nifty put-call ratio was approximately 0.77, with call open interest highest at the 25,500 strike and put open interest highest at 25,000, for the 17 November expiry. The trigger for Wednesday’s moves was not independently confirmed.
Placed against that backdrop, the crude oil price prediction for tomorrow reads Wednesday’s move in the context of a broader market that closed higher.
Analyst View for Thursday
Kunal Singla suggests that crude oil can hold above 8,132, the open, while 8,188 is the first resistance.
Ankit Jaiswal flags that the contract is close to expiry, so rolls into December can distort prices, and the December contract at 8,117 is the one to compare.
Both analysts stress that the crude oil price prediction for tomorrow is a view built on levels and data, not a forecast of returns.
A fair reading of this crude oil price prediction for tomorrow is that Wednesday’s data sets the context, while Thursday’s first hour decides how much of it carries forward.
Why This Is Written for Tomorrow
This crude oil price prediction for tomorrow is written on Wednesday, 11 November 2026, after the close, using today’s closing data, for the next regular trading session tomorrow, Thursday, 12 November 2026. NSE and BSE reopened today after Tuesday’s closure for Diwali Balipratipada, and tomorrow is a regular session with no exchange holiday.
Because the equity market is shut for the day, the crude oil price prediction for tomorrow relies on Wednesday’s close rather than any live price.
MCX contracts were still trading when the data was pulled at 3:39 PM IST and keep trading into the evening, so prices at the time you read this can differ from the figures above. The levels use the 19 November 2026 futures contract.

Risks to This Prediction
