crude went from 29.50 to >32 and now 30.80.

the roller coaster continues...
tonight, it'll be another weekly EIA dose of "better or worse" than API data.

when some big fella says cut production, the shorts will retreat, price goes up.

then a bigger fella say no such thing, the shorts will return with a vengeance.

that's what's happening now.

i have not seen it available freely.

i just read the excerpts and comments on cnbc and other sites.

precarious session ahead...
A series of deadly explosions have rocked Belgium's capital Tuesday, targeting the main airport of Zaventem and the city's metro system.

Flemish public broadcaster VRT said the airport bombing, which it said had killed 13 people and left 35 seriously injured, was a suicide attack and said 10 had been killed in the metro bombing.
(reminds me of the last season of homeland. )

the thing is they do not follow wti price 100% all the time; they go more with the broader market.

even now, their prices are lower compared to when wti was at 32-33.

so, i think can collect, bit by bit.

while punting uwti/dwti occasionally...
i am counting on this until opec meet on apr 17.

hehe... u assumed wrong.

i expect the optimism to go on at least until apr 17.

beyond that, who knows?

not enough info now to try to read further...

you guys all waiting to follow the bulls?
but i'm still at the bear side. 
target 36. 

well... it' be 36-42 in the coming week.

i'm still betting on 42 or higher.

that will depend on how the oil bears and bull will act from this point.

so far, bulls have not done much; it's all bears closing positions.

how with either behave from now?

place yr bets!

my view is that the bears have shorted long enough, had the desired effect - a low of $26/bbl.

bears pulling back now simply means they can't see it going lower.

bulls not jumping in now means they can see there is so much surplus, zero opec action and shale oil can come back easily.

like apples or tulips, the price will be decided by the financial markets since the major producers are "to each his own".
my view is there will be ups and downs in the range 35-45 but will stay around there for years to come.

until some major event(s) force the producers and financial markets to behave differently.

so, for now... i see great trading opportunities.

but u can't find that article anymore?

u r not going to put yr money based on a "missing" article, r u?!

well, if yellen say the "right" things tonight, u may get big chance to buy something.

wti down to 38.60, dow futures -40

Markets will also be following comments by Fed chair Janet Yellen who is due to speak at The Economic Club of New York on Tuesday (at 1620 GMT). Her comments follow remarks from several Fed officials over the past week that a rate hike could be coming soon.

u don't have cnbc?
