Please click on spreadsheet to view and zoom to 100% Energies For the last six weeks Crude oil has been in a $10 trading range and as of the close last week prices are just about in the middle of that range trading at $76/barrel on the front month. We suggest buying dips near $73-74 [...]

Please click on spreadsheet to view and zoom to 100% Energies Crude oil prices dropped nearly $7/barrel last week and could challenge the lows from late May. We don’t read too much into the sideways action in the last five weeks and instead view it as a trading range. As position traders well know there [...]

Please click on spreadsheet and zoom to 100% Energies Crude reversed direction last week closing near $79/barrel and breaking out of the descending triangle that buoyed prices since the beginning of May.

China Move – a potential game changer 6/21/10

Monday, June 21st, 2010

After making a new high Crude failed and closed almost $2 off its’ intra-day high. We suggest exiting all remaining longs as we suspect a set back. We anticipate a challenge of at least the 20 day MA; in August that level is $75.15. We’re not suggesting getting short but rather moving to the sidelines. [...]

Markets Consolidate 6/18/10

Friday, June 18th, 2010

Two sided trade in Crude as prices look to finish up 0.50% today. We have advised clients to exit their longs and expect a $3-5 correction into next week. Ideally we would be a buyer when August was below $75/barrel. We should have some trade ideas next week on September and October contracts. We’re sticking [...]

Could it be the calm B4 the Storm? 6/16/10

Wednesday, June 16th, 2010

A supportive inventory report aided energy prices today with Crude oil and the distillates putting in another positive showing. We feel prices are overdue for a setback so we advise tightening up stops and lightening up on longs. On a pullback we would not expect much more than $3-5. At that point we would be [...]

Playing Correlations 6/14/10

Monday, June 14th, 2010

For the time being indices are in the driver’s seat and as long as stocks are moving higher RISK is on. A falling dollar should also lend support. Oil made a higher high and higher low today but as we posted in our weekly commentary we need to see a settlement above $76 in July [...]
