Dave,
Thanks for your insight on your blog as well as on the weekly Market Wrap. I was hoping that oil would have been covered in your conversation, either /CL or the USO. Curious to hear your thoughts and price projections. What I'm seeing is that on all time frames..daily, weekly and monthly, the USO is very bullish. When you see a MACD cross above zero, it's proven to be a very bullish indicator that confirmed around the first of this month. Stochastics cross above 80 about the same time. Was wondering your thoughts about this. A bit over extended, but thinking another great entry might be when it pulls back and catches a moving average, maybe the 10 or 21. I have a position but am looking to add.
Thanks as always for all that you do for so many!
A former student, forever follower,
Peggy
