Catching it there would have been difficult (at least it was to me). At that point i didn't have much of a clue whether it was going to rally or collapse. Already being so overextended to the downside, one would expect a rally.

In the longer term horizon, CL is in teh area of a major low. I never long term trade oil, just day trade is my game with the CL. GC is my longer term swing trading vehicle. But i am extremely tempted to enter into a long CL position at these levels. I think a minimum of $10 to the upside will come once this bottom is made. And the bottom will happen above $87 in my opinion. Even if it does go below $87, if it fits your personality to sit through losses, i highly highly doubt that this trade will cause a loss. Even if it falls to $85, a counter trend rally will bring it back up to $89 so you can get out at a zero loss. Unfortunately, it's not in my personality to be able to sit through such losses, lol, so this trade is probably not for me.

Yeah it's always clearer in hindsight. I only trade intraday as well. Can't stand sitting through a loss. I typically enter with limit orders near the moving average (100 EMA, 1 minute chart) and use tight stops (.10). Get a pretty good risk reward and am fairly mechanical about managing the trade (usually target at least .60). I agree with your longer term view, just doesn't fit my trading style right now.
 
CL is still having relatively low volume and intraday volatility for such a magnitude fall, I cant figure it :confused:
