Don't forget to calculate the broker spreads into your exits. On oil, during times of high volume/liquidity, its narrows down to about 4 cents above and below price quotes, which is the Midpoint price! Bake that into your entries as well and you'll eliminate some drawdown and improve the trade. Just my 2 cents. Great trade nonetheless.

Great point that's why i switched to futures. Round trips of 5 till 8 (CFD) compared to 2 Futures was an easy choice.
The downside is to this is a bigger account (to safely manage risks) since every tick is $10 per contract

Yep, that's the downside to futures. Futures are better all around except for the fact your position size is way bigger so you can't really trade them with a small account. Heck, even with a big account you're going to want to be sure you know what you're doing since the nominal value you're risking is significant.

It's very surprising the WTI came back the way it did after the sell of on the EIA inventory data.

$63 on brent supported despite weak inventories. this is reflective of a trending up mkt possibly but it needs to go past 64.30 to reach next level of 66. overall weak dollar / strong S&P / OPEC cuts .. so makes sense.

Nice to $%&)F%&(u%/(&%(%c&(/)&/(=ked, but that is trading yesterday +1600 euros then closed a trade at BE and then under waters. All cool!!! As we stay below 59.82 I am happy. So I entered again earlier and now stop at BE. So possible targets, if everything is alright, are: 58.00, 57.47/67, 56.95. When market opens I am going to change tp to 58.10.

The price of WTI seems to reflect that the market is buying into the rumors that there will be a trade deal and tariffs avoided. I'm not so sure on that. We've only heard from one side. Actually we've only heard from the Trump camp. It could be positioning to shift blame before delivering the bad news tomorrow after the close. The closer we get to the close tomorrow the more inclined I'd be to get out of any longs before the close.

WTI HITS FRESH THREE-MONTH HIGHS ABOVE $60.00 BUT THEN RETREATS
13 December 2019, 19:16

 

  1. Crude oil holds to daily gains, off highs.
  2. US-China agreement offered support to WTI that heads for the highest close since mid-October.

Crude oil prices peaked following the agreement between the US and China regarding trade by signing the Phase One Trade Agreement. The barrel of West Texas Intermediate jumped to $60.45, the highest level since September 17 and then pulled back. As of writing trades at $59.95, up 1.20% for the day, about to post highest weekly close since July.
Prices extended the rally after confirmation of a deal between the US and China. But the optimism faded amid lack of details surrounding the agreement and prices pulled back. Still, the trend points to the upside. Also, the improvement in risk appetite following the results of the UK elections offered support. At 18:00 GMT the Baker Hughes US Oil Rig Count report will be released.
From a technical perspective, while above $59.30 the bullish bias remains intact. The next strong resistance area might be seen at $60.50 and $61.00 (July highs). The momentum is still there, particularly if it holds above $60.00.
