WTI Crude Spikes After Renewed Tumble In US Oil Rig Count

Tyler Durden's picture




 

Between contract roll liquidity and a renewed tumble in the US Oil Rig Count, WTI Crude (Jan 16) has surged above $42.50 (Dec 15 to $41). After last week's very modest rise, the streak of rig count declines continues (11th week of last 12) with a 10 rig drop to 564 - the lowest since June 2010.

 

Rig count drops for the 11th week of the last 12...

 

Texas added 4 rigs to 342 but Oklahoma (down 4 to 81), Colorado (down 3 to 29) and Wyoming (down 3 to 21) all saw rig count declines.

 

The reaction...

 

But then again... why?

How does he do it? It's very difficult to be wrong nearly 100% of the time.

It now has to Bang through the  42.60 -42.75 area. Watch the  ten minute and 60 minute bars,  You can see them banging the close at times.
