The primary catalyst for the crude oil price prediction for Monday is the US Non-Farm Payrolls for July 2026, released at 6 PM IST today after Indian market close, which will determine Monday&#8217;s opening gap direction.

SBI surged to Rs 1,124.5 intraday before closing at Rs 1,097.20 (+1.12 percent). Simultaneously, <a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/bajfinance\/bajaj-finance-ltd-share-price-today\">Bajaj Finance<\/a> crashed 5.84 percent to Rs 1,078, the biggest Nifty 50 loser, dragging the financial services sector. Ankit Jaiswal notes that the crude oil price prediction for Monday is shaped by which of these two forces dominates on Monday: SBI&#8217;s confirmed earnings strength or Bajaj Finance&#8217;s Q1 result-related concerns spilling into the broader NBFC sector.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Technical_Levels_for_the_crude_oil_price_prediction_for_Monday\"><\/span><strong>Technical Levels for the crude oil price prediction for Monday<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Level Type<\/th>\n<th>Zone<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Immediate Support<\/td>\n<td>Rs 7,200-7,250<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Key Support<\/td>\n<td>Rs 7,050-7,100<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Immediate Resistance<\/td>\n<td>Rs 7,500-7,550<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Key Resistance<\/td>\n<td>Rs 7,700-7,800<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>Kunal Singla observes that India VIX closed Friday at 12.16, unchanged from Thursday&#8217;s close. Stable VIX at 12-13 despite the broader market fall is structurally positive for the crude oil price prediction for Monday: it means option sellers are not panicking and the August monthly series maintains a defined range. The crude oil price prediction for Monday&#8217;s support at Rs 7,200-7,250 is the immediate floor heading into Monday.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"US_NFP_The_crude_oil_price_prediction_for_Monday_Primary_Weekend_Variable\"><\/span><strong>US NFP: The crude oil price prediction for Monday Primary Weekend Variable<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>US Non-Farm Payrolls for July 2026 releases at 6 PM IST today. A healthy NFP (175,000-230,000 range) supports a Monday gap-up in this outlook as Dow Jones rises and FII risk-on flows return to India on Monday morning. A weak NFP below 130,000 raises US recession concerns and creates a Monday gap-down in this outlook. Ankit Jaiswal recommends checking GIFT Nifty at 9 AM Monday before making any crude oil price prediction for Monday position decisions.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Key_Factors_for_the_crude_oil_price_prediction_for_Monday\"><\/span><strong>Key Factors for the crude oil price prediction for Monday<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>MCX Crude Oil at Rs 7,356 (-0.28 percent) on Friday while gold surged 1.40 percent creates the crude oil price prediction for Monday&#8217;s defining context: the same Iran-Oman Strait uncertainty that is keeping crude below Rs 7,600 is also supporting gold through safe-haven demand. The two are inversely correlated in this environment.<\/li>\n<li>Auto sector surging 1.83 percent on Friday as the Nifty Auto index hit 29,646.95 confirms that crude at Rs 7,356 (below Rs 7,500) maintains the vehicle fuel cost improvement narrative that is structurally positive for the crude oil price prediction for Monday&#8217;s downstream impact.<\/li>\n<li>US NFP at 6 PM IST today is the crude oil price prediction for Monday&#8217;s macro demand catalyst. Strong NFP confirming US economic health supports crude demand expectations; weak NFP raises recession fears and would send crude toward Rs 7,050-7,100.<\/li>\n<li>Iran deal formally confirmed before Monday open is the single biggest downside risk for the crude oil price prediction for Monday, potentially sending MCX Crude to Rs 6,500-6,800 as the Strait risk premium deflates entirely.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Stocks_to_Watch_for_the_crude_oil_price_prediction_for_Monday\"><\/span><strong>Stocks to Watch for the crude oil price prediction for Monday<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Univest analysts flag the following stocks for educational observation in this outlook on Monday.

Ankit Jaiswal of Univest identifies Rs 7,500-7,550 as the primary resistance and Rs 7,200-7,250 as the critical support for the crude oil price prediction for Monday. The US NFP at 6 PM IST today is the primary variable: monitor GIFT Nifty Sunday evening and at 9 AM Monday before positioning for the crude oil price prediction for Monday.<\/p>\n<p>Kunal Singla of Univest notes that the crude oil price prediction for Monday has a dual structure for Monday: the recovery case (IT and Auto momentum continues, SBI Q1 beat sustains, NFP healthy) and the continuation decline case (Bajaj Finance concerns spread to NBFCs, private banks extend selling, weak NFP). The crude oil price prediction for Monday&#8217;s support zone at Rs 7,200-7,250 is the line between these two scenarios on Monday.<\/p>\n<div style=\"background: #CC0000; border-radius: 8px; padding: 16px 20px; margin: 24px 0;\">\n<p style=\"color: #ffffff; font-size: 13px; line-height: 1.7; margin: 0;\"><strong style=\"color: #ffffff;\">Disclaimer:<\/strong> Data and figures in this article are sourced from publicly available information.

MCX Crude fell 0.28 percent to Rs 7,356 on Friday. Support is Rs 7,200-7,250 and resistance is Rs 7,500-7,550. Iran deal formally confirmed overnight is the primary downside catalyst in the crude oil price prediction for Monday.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Which_analysts_prepared_the_crude_oil_price_prediction_for_Monday\"><\/span><strong>Which analysts prepared the crude oil price prediction for Monday?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Ans.<\/strong> Ankit Jaiswal, Senior Research Analyst, and Kunal Singla, Associate Director at Univest, prepared the crude oil price prediction for Monday using Groww-confirmed MCX Crude data of Rs 7,356 per barrel.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_did_crude_fall_while_gold_surged_on_Friday_in_the_crude_oil_price_prediction_for_Monday_context\"><\/span><strong>Why did crude fall while gold surged on Friday in the crude oil price prediction for Monday context?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Ans.<\/strong> Crude falling 0.28 percent while gold surged 1.40 percent on the same day reflects the safe-haven rotation dynamic: investors sold equities and energy (partly on Iran deal hopes) and bought gold for safety. The crude oil price prediction for Monday is inversely correlated to gold in this environment.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_MCX_Crude_support_and_resistance_for_the_crude_oil_price_prediction_for_Monday\"><\/span><strong>What is MCX Crude support and resistance for the crude oil price prediction for Monday?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Ans.<\/strong> Support is Rs 7,200-7,250 and Rs 7,050-7,100. Resistance is Rs 7,500-7,550 and Rs 7,700-7,800 in the crude oil price prediction for Monday.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_does_an_Iran_deal_affect_the_crude_oil_price_prediction_for_Monday\"><\/span><strong>How does an Iran deal affect the crude oil price prediction for Monday?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Ans.<\/strong> A formal Iran deal confirmed before Monday open would send MCX Crude gap-down toward Rs 6,500-6,800 as the Strait of Hormuz risk premium fully deflates in the crude oil price prediction for Monday. This would be positive for BPCL refining margins and Auto input costs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Check the crude oil price prediction for Monday for Monday 10 Aug 2026. crude oil price at Rs 7,356 per barrel (MCX Crude Aug Fut) (-Rs 21 (-0.28%)).
