This was a nice short! A classic "Trader Vic" 2b pattern. I saw it but hesitated on pulling the trigger, and missed that big down day recently. Anyway, I'm a long-term oil bull but right now I think we are headed below $70. I think it will need a bit of a washout for longs before the price can recover. But once that occurs, I think we'll edge up again and go into new highs, eventually up to say $95ish.
Oil is due for a major pullback sooner or later, but the fundamentals are there for new all-time highs. Crude strength is two fold: supply/ demand, and weak USD. The supply/demand situation is unlikely to change, but when the dollar stops falling crude should start to level off. I would not be suprised if the Chinese sold a few billion USD reserves to flex their muscles either. Any kind of supply interruption and crude easily spikes to 100. I honestly don't understand how anyone can short given the risk/reward.
