This unnerved the big investment/hedge funds that had been holding a record net long position and triggered a wave of profit taking.

But few analysts believe that the crude oil market has a lot further to fall.

While the highs may be in, this price slide is still seen by most as a technical correction. After all, the oil market has more than doubled in price this year from a 24-year low of $US10.35/barrel back in December 1998 as oil producers cut production by about 7 per cent.
