I hate to be a killjoy, but we aren't in the clear unless we either have already taken profit or if there isn't a strong freeze in Brazil next week.

Trading futures and options involves substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for all investors. Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results. You may lose more than your initial investment. All posts are opinions and do not claim to be facts. Please conduct your own due diligence. Use only Risk capital when trading Futures.

Reminder bump

ron99 View Post
The last 5 years in a row, CL inventories, after being down the prior 3-4 weeks, are up for the 3rd week of July.

So if you are wanting to sell CL calls I would do it before Tuesday PM's API inventory report.

Of course, past performance may not be indicative of future results.

This

Quoting 
Destin Pipeline declared a force majeure on its US Gulf of Mexico natural gas pipeline system Sunday due to "high levels of liquid in Destin's offshore segment."

The operator said the process of removing these liquids from Destin's slug catcher would take up to seven days, after which the force majeure would be lifted and deliveries to the Pascagoula processing plant in Mississippi would resume.

affects this
Quoting 
BP's 250,000 bpd Thunder Horse Gulf of Mexico oil platform has been shut by Destin Gas pipeline work. The Thunder Horse platform is the largest offshore production platform in the Gulf of Mexico.

So this major oil well, and maybe others, will be shut down this week which should lead to lower oil inventories on the reports next week Tues & Wed.

If I am correct oil will drop this week and then rise midweek next week.

Of course, other factors may come into play.
