Oil and Oil stocks

I think Oil Could topple over here. US jobs data tomorrow, if that doesn't hold up and we break below 90 we could test 85 very quickly and possibly break lower.

Expectations are high on US jobs. they have been lagging till recently so the weekly bar will help me get postioned for the decision.

My Oil stocks are doing well. US:pTEN is up 400+ points from my entry.

Oil broke the 50 ema in the daily Friday. US$ had 3 days of bying off the lows last week so looking for retest of 85 this week but equities finished so well after jobs data on Friday with the Dow above 12000, I think oil could recover quickly and I will look at a ny pull backs in oil stocks.

In the meantime I have a close stop on US:pten with 300 points profit so far but don't want to give too much back here.

Nice profit today on the 50 ema break down. Looks like we may test 85 tomorrow, or at least invents on Wednesday.

In the meantime my oil stocks are still riding high as these equities are doing so well. Pten is up nearly 600 points.

Equities powering ahead with sideways US$ so I'm buying a break up of this bar today to try to get 200 points from oil

Never trade on wednesdays )
Unless you are really quick and have very wide stops
 
Weird correlation between silver and oil...
The problem is why silver is also dropping after the selloff in WTI due to the increase in the inventories in cushing???

Anyway easy points, can't complain. )))
 
OK, buying oil at 86.70 and also buying silver at 30.20.
Also trying out your advice on the usdchf )))
 
Oil is very volatile, take it easy. I don't buy and hold unless I get a really good set up, otherwise I day trade it.

USDCHF is working out well, let's see if we get follow through into next week.

LSE:CNE is doing ok for me. Hoping to see it at 500 before not too long. Oil is still holding up well, I'm not convinced this wilkl come down any time soon althought the US$ has bottomed short term.

Heritage oil had a good run today, will watch this for an entry.

Oil has broken up through key levels with good volume so 3 great trades today. A pull back to 10760 and we could move back up to 110 and beyond IF consumer sentiment is strong tomorrow. The YUS$ is weak so its helping.
