Upbeat Expectations 2/3/12

Friday, February 3rd, 2012

A positive jobs number and things heating up in Iran and Crude is back on the move advancing 1.5% today. We may see a bounce but until we see a trade back over $99 I still am thinking prices have more downward pressure. My target in March is  a trade closer to $93-94 in the [...]

Prepare for NFP 2/2/12

Thursday, February 2nd, 2012

I think the number is fabricated but nonetheless it is market mover so prepare for tomorrow’s jobs number. As of this post Crude is lower by 1% about in the middle of today’s range trading lower for the seventh consecutive day. I think we see an additional $3-4 retracement before we run into serious support. [...]

Not the End 2/1/12

Wednesday, February 1st, 2012

With  a more positive outlook domestically and abroad expect commodities that had previously factored in a more dire picture to get back losses from late 2011. Today makes it five days in row with Crude down just over 1% as of this post trading at six week lows. A close below $98.30 in March should [...]

Crude appears to be finding its footing as further sales are being rejected. With a settlement back above $100 I would become [...]

Friday the 13th 1/13/12

Friday, January 13th, 2012

The day is not over but I have not had any strange things happen to me that are typical of this date. I’ll let you know next week if I made it the whole day. Crude failed to make a new high this week closing roughly $5  from its highs. Prices failed at the same [...]

Trading Your Plan 1/9/12

Monday, January 9th, 2012

Over the years I’ve learned that when markets are quiet it is easy to fall asleep at the wheel and not abide to your plan but avoid those pitfalls to increase the likelihood for success. Crude bounced off support and closed back above the 9 day MA above $101/barrel. As long as $100 holds prices [...]
