We had close to 750K traded in first 15 min yesterday... it looks to be shy of it today...

I have ABC up here to 97.50

If volume stays light, may be a good reversal point.

I wouldn't even think of shorting this, and I don't mind shorting obviously. You must be thinking very quick in & out. JDJ

I look for 2 ingredients. A Bearish Upthrust is only a stealth sign of weakness. That's the first thing The second thing is CONFIRMED weakness... that happens when candle lows are broken on VOLUME.

This isn't about Age... I might be older than you...

BTW, today's volume about the same as yesterday... not shortable just yet.

Looks similar to yesterday... They are jamming it right up the short's wazoos here. If they get it up there and hold it again like they did yesterday, the crude contract could be up 5 bucks tomorrow on short covering....

Hmmmm... Crude is at ABC Up target of 122.XX If we should extend here... .25 takes us to 126 area. .382 127-128. We better start pulling back soon if you are short.

Is anyone else on this board looking to buy dips in oil and oil stocks or perhaps even looking to buy BO's? So many outstanding traders here have tried to short CL or the petro stocks the past year. Amazing IMO.....

Tough to buy dips on something that goes up 100%+ in a year. I just have to be sure and not be tempted to short it... Something is going to give here, there's no personal income growth that is going to support all the inflation that results from this oil rally. So, you just have to be patient. Something will give here, you just don't know when.
