Sandy Forces QE Fatigue in Remission
Analysis of Nymex Crude Oil ($86.12): The weekly chart for crude oil stays negative on a close Friday below the five-week MMA at $90.94. The 200-week simple moving average is a major support at $82.64 with my new monthly value level at $76.96. My annual and quarterly risky levels are $103.58 and $107.31, so there's room for significant volatility. The 200-week SMA has been a magnet since mid-2009.
