Crude Oil Pauses Before the Next Move Up / Commodities / Crude Oil
If a new, powerful upleg in the US Oil Fund ETF (NYSE: USO) started at the 9/25 low at 33.45, the pattern carved out since exhibits a structure that is incomplete to the upside. Although the major upside thrust occurred into the Oct 21 high at 41.92, the 9-trading session pullback into Tuesday’s pivot low at 39.13 represents the conclusion of a correction within the larger incomplete upleg that projects to 43.00-44.00 in the upcoming hours/days.

Are Higher Prices the ‘New Normal’ for Crude Oil? / Commodities / Crude Oil
Oil prices have bounced more than 150 percent off of December 2008 lows but inventory levels remain at historically high levels despite a healing global economy.
However, Goldman Sachs says robust 2010 oil demand growth will deplete these inventories over the next 12-to-18 months and diminishing production rates in key areas around the world will create a supply/demand imbalance.

Rising Crude Oil Price Profit Plays / Commodities / Crude Oil
Martin Hutchinson writes: Crude oil is knocking on the door of $80 a barrel. That’s not what experts have been expecting. At the start of the year, when oil prices were below $40, these experts predicted prices would stay there, or even decline a bit.

Parameters in Equities, Crude Oil / Commodities / Crude Oil
Last week's oil price break above $75 was an essential catalyst in accelerating the pace of USD selling beyond $1.50 in EURUSD, 0.93 in AUDUSD, and 1.03 in USDCAD. Technically, the next oil barrier emerges at $82.00 (100-week MA), a break of which would extend the rally towards $89.90. Coincidently, US equity indices also face their next resistance at the 100-week MA (1,100 for S&P and 10,209 for the Dow). But a more important landmark for the S&P500 stands at 1,121, which marks the 50% retracement of the decline from the October 2007 high to the March 2009 low.

Gold Supported by Crude Oil at Yearly High and USD Near Record Lows / Commodities / Crude Oil
Gold is currently trading at $1,055.60/oz. With oil reaching a new high for the year above $79 a barrel, and the Federal Reserve signaling interest rates will stay near record lows for the foreseeable future, the beleaguered greenback fell to a 14-month low on the dollar index. The poor jobs number on Friday left lingering doubts regarding the sustainability of the recovery and this also supported gold.

Where's Crude Oil Going Next? Boom or Bust / Commodities / Crude Oil
Everyone's been complaining about the cost of living as the economic crunch really takes hold. Money's getting tighter, everything's getting more expensive and the government's "inflation" numbers don't seem to be totally accurate or honest.
But fortunately for our pocketbooks, oil hasn't yet gone on the sort of giddy rise we've seen in the stock market (and gold too, for that matter).

Peak Oil, The Truth About Energy / Commodities / Crude Oil
After oscillating within a trading range for several weeks, the price of crude oil has recently broken out to a new recovery high. Now, you will recall that we have been firm believers of ‘Peak Oil’ since 2003 and we were expecting this bullish resolution.
Look. Sceptics can say what they want; it does not change the fact that our world is struggling to maintain daily flow-rates. Whether you agree with us or not, the energy reality is that the supply of conventional crude oil is very close to its peak and no other fuel source can fix the problem.

Crude Oil Forecast For Winter 2009 / Commodities / Crude Oil
I've had a number of requests from MarketClub members to produce another video on crude oil. Part of that may have come from the crude oil alert that we put on our blog on October 12.
What is interesting about crude oil is the fact that seasonally, it should be going down. However, the market appears to be doing just the opposite. We have written about this before and when something is supposed to happen and the opposite occurs, it's time to pay attention.

Betting on Commodities, Especially Crude Oil / Commodities / Crude Oil
In 2008, prices of oil, natural gas, gold, silver, copper, corn, wheat, and most other commodities reached multi-year, and in some cases multi-decade, highs. They’ve fallen sharply since then, but commodities aren’t going out of business. Another peak is coming, and it will be far higher, especially for oil.
