    US Rep Says Probe Uncovers Oil Market Manipulation

    If we have to buy well well i guess the saudis are looking pretty and can charge whatever price they so desire. All this manipulation is getting old, you fight it at 80, 100,120,150 and then at 200. your problem is that there is no supply at lower prices, and those taking delivery have been...

    So when are we going to stop allowing casinos to determine the price of gas and food?

    OPEC has some control over demand by increasing/decreasing output to affect price! "BEST thing they could hope for is that demand increases faster than supply. " I don't think so... i think they rather milk oil for years than allow peak oil to happen. Hence they want to the world to think...

    So when are we going to stop allowing casinos to determine the price of gas and food?

    "We need a system where actual demand from actual consumers and actual supply from actual suppliers are what determine price." blah blah blah, you imply that you know this is true. Let's do a little exercise, take a minute and pretend that this has nothing to do with unwarranted speculation...

    Saudi Arabia may curb oil production

    They are running out of oil, but want to hide this for as long as possible. They can't have the rest of the world embracing alt energy to quickly so they keep the the price from raising to fast and blame speculators! Got to milk it as long as possible :-)

    Boone Pickens & Those Stealing From Consumers (& Investors/Traders) Should Be Hung

    The Saudis lie when they tell George Bushy there is no supply problem, just like we lie when we tell them that we believe in a strong dollar.

    Boone Pickens & Those Stealing From Consumers (& Investors/Traders) Should Be Hung

    Most here keep fighting oil all the way up saying its manipulated and can not go higher. You have obviously been wrong, so adapt and move on. The so called commodity bubble doesn't look like much of a bubble on a year chart. Our currency may or may not be in the process of being debased, but...

    Boone Pickens Adopts Long Position on Oil

    Guys, Mr T. Boone has always and will always be a bull on oil. Everything he says is either to prop the price up or bring it down so he can add to his position. If he is saying it is overpriced he is only wanting it to come down so he can add more futures. Then he will flip flop and...

    Time to short CF and NFLX

    Just opened up short positions against up volume in CF and NFLX. I now own a nice collection of may puts in each. I think CF is too far extended based on MOS recent news. NFLX overvalued and excessive risks to USPS rate hikes. What say yee, bad rookie mistake for shorting new highs?

    majority traders really lose money??

    I often hear that much more traders lose money than make money? Is this really the mentality? It seems hard to believe considering the huge advantage we have over the institutions. It's just so much easier for a small trader to get in and out of positions and manage a small portfolio...
