Is there a specific reason for this?

If what Rick Santelli is saying in the video is true, must this not therefore mean there has to be quite a lot of contracts that are excersied every month in order for oil prices to stay at such high levels?

Would all oil futures trading not then, be speculation? Companies and parties who actually want oil in its physical form would not go and buy a contract in oil futures...

What is each tick worth for Crude oil futures?

I guess it would depend on your investment objectives?

Why do charts hit the exact perecentage levels? What is the significance of these lines? I have read various technical analysis books but have had difficulty finding the answers to my questions. To what capacity can Fibonacci Retracement Lines be used as a forward looking tool? Sun, 20 Apr 2008 00:02:22 -0400
