Here's a litte oily news:

I have generally liked trading RIG from 43-50ish, either on the long or short side, but I'm always aware of the possibility that this time might be different "in a bad way."

I have linked a 360 day OSX chart here for everyone's perusal:

Stochastics look good on this one, but Williams %R says overbought. If you shorten the time periods you'll find, if I'm reading this correctly, that the stochastics weaken, while the Williams indicator remains firmly overbought. I'm not sure I buy into the ability of indicators to really tell the direction of an index, while I believe they are reasonable tools for analyzing stock sell and buy points. On the other hand, energy fundamentals still look good, and we're entering into a season which is generally kind to energy.
