Huh? There was no sarcasm whatsoever in that post.

It's bullshit that the TSX drops 500 points in just a few days with no real reason. Simple. Not everything I say is sarcastic. Just the vast majority of it.

Originally posted by Nrg2Nfinit we broke 69.50 which was the first resistance for futures and now our next resistance is 65.50 (which i doubt we will see as delivery for june is almost here). Most etfs (if not all) have rolled over to july so you should watch that contract. Contango is reducing (the spread between june and july) and july seems to have some stable ground at around 72 with a slight rally this morning. If this report is good tomorrow oil will go forward. my trigger finger is itching for my third position hehe. The euro needs to strengthen though and the US dollar needs to weeken to help boost comodity prices. IF this doesnt happen, expect energy companies to remain low. keep an eye on UUP to track US dollar preformance. i'm bullish on oil. We've come out of this recession, companies are reporting decent quarters and the piigs have their bailout package so markets should flourish (just as ours did when we had our packages). If you're patient i would suggest you wait for better prices. Again keep an eye out for eia's storage report tomorrow.

i agree that the price of oil "should" rally when the EIA reports tomorrow. However, oil futures are currently 68 and change and the main driver of this is the euro/dollar x-rate. Thus i'm not placing a whole lot of emphasis on the report. As for the contango, the spread right now is $3.49. Which is pretty damn big in my opinion. contracts expire this friday, and if there's any indication as to what WILL happen, and often does happen on the 3rd friday is that the futures prices will be taken downward. I'd like to say i'm bullish on oil for the rest of the week, but frankly i'm not. I'm a very short-term trader so for the week, oil will continue to head down. That will likely change next week once we near 65.5

3.49 after hours... it was as low as 3 dollars today (it used to be 5) and now july is the primary driver (you can see this in the volume of july relative to june. If oil june goes to 65 and the contango widens it will be negligent on the performance on any etf since they have all rolled over into july. contango can widen as much as it wants now so long as we see it widening downwards more from the june end. I beleive the contract expires thursday (if im not mistaken, third business day prior to the 25th). Once june expires our new curent future price is july and if you do technicals on that you will see that we have a much higher support.

i highly doubt we will see july 65 or even july in 60 anything.

In other news the "Thai stock exchange" first floor is on fire. That was 2 hours ago

Premarket and foreign point to another bad day on the US/CA markets.

if the markets open slightly red, i would suggest that everyone buy a leveraged double inverse index fund. The hang seng dropped over 300 points which is huge.

If i'm wrong i'll buy you guys a coffee

we can't call them all.


crude report wasnt fantastic.. still a surplus of about 1 million barels. fairly tight compared to the last two weeks. Next week should definatley bring a draw. futures got excited and rallied for about 5 minutes then dipped again. Still waiting to get into my third position.

i dont have that much margin my friend.

edit:

2.20 contango now for oil. june and july are converging with upward movement from june. This is good news for july resistance, its going to be that much harder to break 70 dollars july (right now we are 72 july. This is an excellent time for first positions in oil etfs if you are bullish on oil.
