don't worry
this week siguro mag break 50 na
latest commitment of traders (COT) report shows large reduction in long positions (combined NYMEX WTI, ICE Brent, ICE WTI)
so this decline in oil prices is the result hedge funds' long liquidation rather than new selling
those long positions were built up weeks ago
the liquidation is a sign hedge funds are losing faith in OPEC's production cuts
they're exiting their bets that oil prices are going higher
BUT
the COT report shows longs still outnumber shorts

Inventory report is neutral for oil prices
Not negative
Strong demand for crude from refineries
Resulting is drawdown in crude stock
Resulting in buildup in gasoline stock
Need US summer driving season to kick in
To reduce gasoline stock

if Brent doesnt fall below the psychologically important 50, it's bullish still
so it's like camp big falcon with its barrier up and the enemy keeps firing and on the barrier
eventually the barrier will break but so far it's holding
that's brent's $50 level
it's not called psychological barrier for nothing

look how important that psychological $50 level was
it took several attempts and several days to break 50 coz there were defenders at that level
when the defenders got overwhelmed they just let it go
after breaking 50, it only took a couple of hours to break below 49
the rally towards $60 we saw earlier this year was due to hedge funds accumulating long positions when OPEC promised them they'll defend oil prices with production cuts
the optimism lasted about 3 months
as oil prices rose US shale came back with a vengeance
the selloff we're seeing now is due to hedge funds exiting their long positions
they're losing faith in OPEC
it will take a lot more convincing this time for hedge funds to go long crude oil again
