With 2011 winding down this will be my last commodity wrap up as I am closing my office until 2012. Happy holidays to all! Crude picked up 1.7% today closing back above its 18 day MA. Traders should be buying dips that hold $95 as it looks like this leg could lift prices back near [...]

I expect further weakness in equities and that weakness could spill over into select commodities…trade accordingly. February Crude is having trouble making new lows. If we do not see lower trade in the next few days we will likely reverse and exit all remaining shorts and start scaling back into longs…stay tuned.  A new low [...]

Markets remain sluggish looking for direction…either higher or lower. As of this post Crude is virtually unchanged hovering around the $101/barrel level. We still favor fading any rallies as $102 is continues to act as resistance. On a settlement below the short term MA’s around $99.50 in January we would be adding length looking to [...]
