back a gain in your At session you mention that oil had not reversed the trend ; i do agree. World economic depends on oil leads to price action,what i quickly thought you may be going with that is to compare $oix to cl0812 which i pulled up, just like you pointed out before when oil was going up to be careful because we have a lower high on $oix , now can we read that we have a higher high that this maybe be a clue that big money is SLOWLY MOVING back???? a short rally Robert B
