I added @.96. Stupid or brilliant? Guess I'll find out.
Watching the 1 min. WTI chart like a hawk for any sign of a rebound to double down.
Dude, you keep the faith. Hang in there. Throwing good vibes your way. Keep me posted. I'm holding UWTI from 1.16 so hurtin' today.
See if it sells completely off again and GSS is no moving much.
NUGT blasted off
What's the catalyst?
Hope I'm wrong, but it smells like an overall market thrashing coming. The DOW is WAAAY overdue for a significant drop.
Annnd cue the obligatory pre-market dump.
Are we on Oct. now?
API Reports US Crude Stocks -2.3 Million Barrels in Week,..
By Timothy Puko And Georgi Kantchev Oil prices rebounded Tuesday as bargain buyers and profit takers outweighed some of the pressure from Chinese economic concerns and strong supply that have recently added to oil's fall. West Texas Intermediate crude hit a six-year low just a day ago, causing many bearish traders to hesitate on selling more futures, analysts said. Crude has had such a large and steady collapse--down about 60% from 2014's highs--that many will use the opportunity of a new low to buy back contracts to cash out winning bets, analysts said. That can temporarily bid up prices. Light, sweet crude for September delivery gained 75 cents, or 1.8%, to settle at $42.62 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange. Brent crude, the global benchmark, gained 7 cents, or 0.1%, to $48.81 a barrel on ICE Futures Europe. "Downside price momentum across the (oil) complex appears to be subsiding given the market's ability to accept the overnight plunge in Chinese equities with only limited selling," Jim Ritterbusch, president of energy-advisory firm Ritterbusch & Associates, said in a note to clients. China led Asian markets lower with the Shanghai Composite Index tumbling 6.2%. China's central bank injected the largest amount of cash into the financial system on a single-day basis in almost 19 months, signaling Beijing's growing concerns over capital outflows after the yuan's recent weakening. Oil traders have been focused on how slowing economic growth in the world's second-biggest oil consumer could impact crude demand. Despite the small bounce, WTI crude is down 20% for the year. "A lot of ground has been covered, so people are going to be defensive" and pause any aggressive selloff, said John Saucer, vice president of research and analysis at Mobius Risk Group in Houston Few, however, believe that will lead to lasting gains. The global glut responsible for oil's price collapse shows few signs of abating with strong supply coming from big producers like the U.S., Russia and the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries, a 12-nation oil cartel. "There are still no clear signs that the global market is undergoing a rebalancing process as there are still no signs that production is dissipating anywhere in the world," Dominick Chirichella, analyst at the Energy Management Institute, said in a note. Many traders were likely positioning themselves to be ready for a stream of inventory data coming in the next 24 hours. The American Petroleum Institute, an industry group, will release its data on weekly U.S. oil inventory levels later today. Wednesday morning the U.S. Energy Information Administration will post its closely watched inventory report, offering an estimate of U.S. weekly oil output. Estimates from 12 analysts surveyed showed that U.S. oil inventories are projected to have fallen by 1.1 million barrels, on average, in the week ended Aug. 14. Even though official data suggests U.S. oil output has peaked in March, it has held near multi-decade highs, at around 9.5 million barrels a day. Anxiety over supply hiked in recent weeks, on news that U.S. shale oil drillers have added rigs despite the low prices. "Before crude can go up next year, increasingly, we feel crude has to fall once more to cause the final flush out in supplies," analysts at Energy Aspects said in a report. "In the near term, [WTI] crude can potentially continue to head lower into the $30s...Currently, there is no floor to prices as such." Gasoline futures settled down 0.74 cent, or 0.5%, at $1.6468 a gallon. Diesel futures gained 0.38 cent, or 0.3%, to $1.5586 a gallon. --Chao Deng and Nicole Friedman contributed to this article.

CX portal frozen again.
Well, oil is reacting to something RIGHT NOW.
Where's the *&(&^^&@$^# report??
What 43? No 43 yet!
It's amazing what a magnet 42 is for this long!
Gold Jr's getting hammered. I dumped out at a loss on all of them.
42, 42, 42... what does it take to get a 43?
I get it, but then you're lucky to break even a lot of the time because it's just has hard to call the tops.
Damn. I haven't seen anybody here come even close to calling this thing.
Ha! Ya know the last half-dozen posts are weird. Not used to Bullish talk 'round these here parts.
Cha Ching! Just need this thing to stay over 11. Below that scares me. Mainly because I bought to much of it!
WTI still in the 42 trading range. It is until it isn't.
They're running the stops.
Well then, c'mon Wednesday!
" I think we stay in about the same range the next 2 weeks though then probably start dropping slowly and steadily until October near the end of this month."
So then, why are you buying?
Might just have gotten a sign...look at the chart.
I wondering if the big boys are going to dump even more, then what the hell are they waiting for? Could be they'e spewing out negativity while accumulating around 42??
The unusual thing that stands out to me is every f'n morning around 9:20 it takes a crap. EXCEPT the last few trading days. It's actually spiked up at that time. 42 is a magnet.
Th US military watches them like a hawk.
That's silly. We can read a license plate from miles above the earth. Pretty sure we would know about the tankers. Those things are pretty big I think.
Thanks. I have CME Group up right now.
CX Portal not working. WTI is trading but CX not reflecting activity.
Thanks. We'll see what we shall see!
Got it. My guess is though, that 95% of the investors/traders are moving on the overall numbers and not delving into the details as you are. I wonder if there's a way to get that break down on 3/24.
The topic was lifting the export ban. Nobody has moved on it until now.

"The decline in net bullish positions of the speculators brings the overall level to the lowest level since March 24th"
Directly after the 3/24 level, UWTI went from 2.20 to 4.25.
Umm....http://americablog.com/2014/06/obama-loosens-four-decade-ban-crude-oil-exports.html
Repubs had many opportunities in the last 40 years. Didn't do squat.
