Fundamental Analysis:

Oil prices fell Tuesday, 20^th September 2022, following losses in other risk assets, and the dollar stayed strong as investors anticipated further interest rate hikes by major central banks to curb inflation. 

The Fed will likely raise rates by another 75 basis points on Wednesday, 21^st September 2022, to curb inflation.
