even a good 5 year chart that i can copy and paste would be useful, but must have the recent 87.50-88 price spike included, thanks
attached is ascii data, Date OHLCV of 'continuous' Crude Oil prices, begins April 1983, updated with price data from: http://www2.barchart.com/mktcom.asp no 'continuous formula' is used, each day's new prices are just added to the file; wait till the next day's price appears before updating the previous day; on current contract rollover -- I only update on Tues and Fri nights -- I go back and enter the new usually lower prices appearing on the screen
Here's an interesting chart of Gasoline.. I've never quite seen one like that. Trades UP from the open every single day for months.
the clear candlesticks indicate that the price traded higher than it opened, not accounting for gaps up or down. I've never seen that many 'trading up from the open' days on any chart, ever.
