Hi FW its Crude Oil Jul 08.... I have just closed at $123.54 up 208

 

I am still bearish and my target was 123.09 but that looks too far, ahead of the 3:30 crude figures that are its biggest mover.. but as I will be in the school playground then...thought I would cash in my chips.. might come back to $118 but thats life...

I was just wondering if you put stops on since it's so volatile. I'm just focusing on the ES currently since the moves have been nice lately.

 

Good trading!

Taking some pain now...thank goodness they are small positions...

that rally on the back of the ECB rate rise news...really caught me out...

 

I share your pain, Foale, having shorted earlier this morning. Still in now, but wishing I'd just set a tighter stop and taken the loss.:(

I'm going to stick my neck out and say Thursday's and Friday's action is the kind if extreme greed action that suggests this is oil's final hurrah for this, its longest and biggest upleg of its secular bull run to date. So short at 13759 with a view to holding and looking for sub 10000 - bringing it back to its long term trend.

 

I accept it could still spike to a further extreme before engaging its long overdue correction so if we first move up higher and even see the 15000 prophesy self-fulfilling then I will add more.

I'm going to stick my neck out too and going to say:

(a) the market can stay irrational for longer than... (you know)

(b) even if parabolic rises usually signal the end of a move, they seldom reverse in the same way straight away (but it can happen)

© would you exit your trade if you were in a long position?

Fair points FW -

 

I'm in small - and have precalculated my phase ins so there'll be no excessive exposure.

I don't pretend I can call the top but I think the signs are there. It's all speculative cash from the big players and when the plug is pulled it'll drop hard and fast.

I'd wager the trigger will be some coordinated action from governments plus further signs of slowing / stalflating economies. But that's guesswork.

This upleg in oil has been a 175% whopper - the previous largest upleg was 68%. The long term trend channel sees us at $90 - $100. Corrections tend to mirror uplegs in their size.

    • It depends. If you have lots of money that you can buy a house without a loan and if you don't have any parents to sponsor then it is a good idea. Otherwise it might be a bad idea depending where in Canada you are heading to. I earned a good middle income in my home country and I migrated to Vancouver 5 years ago at the age of 35. I had to start right from the bottom, lowest of the low.. Now i am finally earning a middle income in Canada but I still cannot afford to buy a one bedroom apartment. Having left behind friends, family and home, most of the times I think it is not worth it.   In short, do not migrate if you already have a good life in your home country and you are happy. Only migrate to Canada if you really have to leave your home country say there is a war or something really bad. Discrimination still exists here and its really tough for newcomers unless you are super rich. Good luck. David Chong, Quora  
    • This is bigger than the internet. Bigger than mobile. Bigger than social media.   While everyone was distracted by stock market fluctuations and political theater…   Most people have NO IDEA what just happened last week with ChatGPT.   Their new memory feature allows ChatGPT to remember EVERYTHING about you across all your conversations.   Think about that for a minute...   While most tech companies have been collecting mere breadcrumbs about you - your likes, your clicks, your browsing history - OpenAI is now collecting the most valuable dataset in human history: your complete psychological profile.   This is Zuckerberg x 5,000.   The more you use ChatGPT, the more it understands you, becoming a supercharged reflection of yourself that improves at an exponential rate.   Are you a regular ChatGPT user?   Consider whether it’s time to turn off the “you can train on my information” feature. To prevent your data from being used for training while still using the memory feature:   Disable Model Training: Navigate to Settings > Data Controls. Toggle off "Improve the model for everyone". Manage Memory Settings: Go to Settings > Personalization > Memory. Here, you can: Turn off memory entirely. Delete specific memories. Use Temporary Chat for sessions that won't be saved or used for training. Now the investment implications…   Why This is Bigger Than You Think Consider this: the relationship between humans and ChatGPT is evolving beyond a mere tool.   People are now treating these AI assistants as friends, confidants, and even romantic partners.   I'm not making this up - there are already documented cases of people ending real human relationships to pursue “connections” with their AI companions.   A viral Instagram meme shows a person going through life with a glowing, featureless humanoid figure - representing ChatGPT - as their companion.   The post has over 1.1 million likes and comments like "Bro ChatGPT is like my best friend. Ain't even ashamed to say it" with 25,000 likes.   But here's where things get really interesting for investors and entrepreneurs...   Three Things to Watch For starters, hardware is the next big thing for the big players.   The iPhone form factor is dead.   It hasn't meaningfully changed in nearly a decade. The next evolution in hardware will be designed specifically to interface with these AI companions.   OpenAI is already working on hardware with Johnny Ive, the legendary designer behind the iPhone and iPod. But you can’t ignore Elon Musk’s edge here.   So what does all of this mean for you?   The companies that control the personal AI relationships will be worth trillions. OpenAI and Elon Musk will have the coziest moats. We're witnessing the birth of a new internet - one built on agents that can communicate with each other across platforms. Google's new agent-to-agent protocol allows AI agents to work together without sharing internal memories or tools. The hardware companies that create the perfect interface for these AI companions will dominate the next decade of technology. And almost nobody is talking about what this means.   My prediction? Within five years, most people will have a personal AI that knows them better than anyone else. And they will interact with it in ways that seem foreign today.   (And, yes, it will almost certainly have dystopian elements.)   In the meantime, the biggest gains won’t come from household names. And, right now, James is seeing a prime opportunity to invest in the most under-the-radar plays in AI…   For dirt cheap. By Chris C.
