I don't often look at ETFs, but I find USO to be very interesting right now. This ETF, United States Oil, closely tracks the price of crude oil in New York.
This market appears to have completed a formation that could have great profit opportunities in the near term.

What do I mean when I say... trade the market and not the economy? It may sound like I'm saying to trade the same thing... but in many cases they're different. The difference is that the market is driven by fear and greed, while the economy is driven by fundamentals. Our "Trade Triangle" technology allows us to analyze the market... leaving the fundamentals and our own emotions at the door. Let's look at some of the major markets and see which direction the trend is headed:
* The equity markets are still in a negative trend.
* Crude oil is still in a negative trend.
* Gold is in an erratic upward trend.
* The dollar is also in an erratic upward trend.
All of these markets are still in entrenched trends and there is no reason to suggest that they will be reversing anytime soon.
I have just finished a short video on crude oil (NYMEX:CL). This market is making moves, which I will tell you all about using the "Trade Triangle" technology which I helped to create.
We recently received a trading signal in this market which I think is an important one. You will also get a chance to see several of the previous signals that were issued. The video is definitely worth watching for that benefit alone.
The silly season which we talked about in December is rapidly coming to a close. I would expect that the volume and liquidity will return to the markets by the 15th of January. So get ready... cause there is money to be made.
Enjoy the video and by all means, give us a call at 1-800-538-7424 if you have any questions about the video.
Many thanks,

I'm sure as a trader you've heard the expression, the "trend is your friend." That was never more true than today as crude oil (NYMEX_CL) crashed to new lows and the stock market resumed its downward trend.
Today we are focusing on crude oil and the reason why it fell to new lows. We're also going to be looking at all of the "Trade Triangle" signals that we have received on crude oil since last July. The video is about nine minutes long and I highly recommend watch it, simply because it shows you just how powerful trends can be.
The video also shows you why price action is more important than fundamentals. If you have a few minutes, please take the time to watch the video and learn how the markets really work.
Since Barack Obama was named President elect, we can see how the markets have reacted at least in the short-term. Maybe not a reflection of Obama's potential as a president, maybe a reality check for problems in the economy. Not even the record cut in interest rates by the UK could help the markets today.
Enjoy the video and please let us know if you've found it to be helpful and useful in your own trading plan. You can reach us online or you can call us directly at 1-800-538-7424 and someone from a support staff will be able to answer any questions you might have.
Every success in life and in trading,

Crude oil looks cheap, doesn't it?
Just because something looks inexpensive doesn't mean that it's necessarily a buy. It's very possible for crude oil (NYMEX_CL) to rally up into the low 70s, but you have to remember that it would still be in a bear market. We have seen very few counter trend rallies in this market since it began its amazing fall from grace. The liquidation of the hedge funds and speculators from this market pushed crude down so much that OPEC had to have an emergency meeting. During that meeting, they agreed to cut production by a total of 1.5 million barrels a day. I don't believe for a second that they are going to follow through with that plan. I don't think its every going to happen.
OPEC is now between a rock and a hard place, and is being forced to continue pumping oil because of other financial commitments. Most if not all of the OPEC countries have recently put economic programs in place, all of which require further funding. These economic programs are now having to be financed from a lower income stream. I doubt seriously, giving the players in OPEC, that they will live up to their word to cut output levels. They need the money much like a drug addict needs a fix.
I expect certain countries (Venezuela and Russia) to continue pumping as much crude as they can, so that their socioeconomic infrastructure does not come to a screeching halt. As I have said before, trading this market with a technical program and a game plan far exceeds just looking at the fundamentals. The fundamentals always come in late and after the fact. Market action, and market action alone, determines the trend for not only crude oil, but also for all of the other markets.
Remember, when you are trading against the major trend you should always use positions smaller than if you are trading with the major trend. I believe that the conservative play would be to allow crude oil to rally, and then sell the rally when you have a technical signal to do so.
Every success,
