Yes the market should definitely be interesting going forward. On the other hand there is lower world wide demand for oil in the forecast with the US producing record levels of crude offsetting the cuts by OPEC.



Well, if we compare CL to the last 4 years combined, It does like to go up around this time of year. Not saying it will, but has in the past.

Live trades were in the MES and MCL markets today with one contract for each trade.

MCL

1:08pm Short @72,51 | Exit @72.54 | Result -$3.00
1:46pm Short @72.60 | Exit @72.64 | Result -$4.00
2:08pm Long @72.47 | Exit @72.41 | Result -$6.00
2:14pm Long @72.27 | Exit @72.23 | Result -$4.00
2:20pm Long @72.26 | Exit @72.23 | Result -$3.00
2:32pm Long @72.15 | Exit @72.14 | Result -$1.00

MES

1:20pm Short @4797.00 | Exit @4797.50 | Result -$2.50
1:54pm Short @4800.50 | Exit @4796.75 | Result +$18.75
3:22pm Long @4797 | Exit @4792.50 | Result -$22.50
3:24pm Short @4792.25 | Exit @4793 | Result -$3.75
3:55pm Long @4795.00 | Exit @4793.50 | Result -$7.50

Daily Result fees included -$51.74

The only thing I would have done different is closing the 3:22pm trade earlier at a 3-5 tick loss instead. Had a couple of trades the had great unrealized gains but they retraced back to my stop.
