I was wondering about the same thing. WTI went up by $0.52 today but I still wonder what caused the big drop 4 hours ago.

I'm thinking the WHO news may have played a role along with general market sentiment. Quadruple witching could have been at play too.

Hey guys I’m new to trading crude oil. I have a question hope someone can help me with this. I use FXCM to trade and I bought oil when it dipped down at $26. Was planning to hold it for long term but on Friday my trade was automatically closed. Any reason why they would close my trade? Does crude oil have limit on how long you can hold the trade?

You traded a future based cfd which expired.

Don't know i don't trade cfds anymore. ETFs could also be a nice fit.

if you trade gas or oil with FXCM you'll face expiration every months, auto close every months.
Not to mention daily swap you'll lose everyday for holding it

As Ll1979 said, you may try ETF.
Check all brokers with ETF (i use Saxobank for example) but there are plenty of others

You can hold them for as long as you want (unless the ETF is delisted but you shall be warned weeks ahead)
Fees are minimal usually
And one thing, never hold long term leveraged ETF

Wasn't aware for a contract you would face a daily charge unless it's broker rules, the contract has all rolled in the spread, strange behaviour

Brokers are here to rip you off, nothing more
Check the robinhood broker, so called free and very good. So many people trading off that platform, while owners have sold your positions for 50M of dollars to Wall Street so they can trade against you

That's why i mostly deal with ETF, you buy, hold, and come back later with profits

ETX don't charge for the contract daily rollover (it's reflected in the spread) however no expiry they charge the rolling, I just may have hit lucky with my broker

wti is very bullish but may not be ready to break higher yet. too risky for me to try a short, would rather wait for it to drop for a long entry

Crude has had a difficult time staying above the $40 handle. We are there again on very light volume today.

would be hard to imagine the larger spike (bigger than any printed previous) would be buying at this level, going for the Kansas City shuffle,

WTI went up by $1.22 or 3% today but started the day on a precarious note registering today's low of $37.67 on its first candle.
