Crude oil is under pressure, as recession fears revive

63
Crude oil had initiated a classical short coverage rally: despite a big bullish day, around 2% (42699 contracts on Nymex) of total open interest for Crude oil futures was liquidated, which means that a massive pullback was not associated with the new business coming in, but rather an old business getting out.

Despite the local optimism, market fear still dominates with VIX getting back to 46: a quite notable level. With that we can expect USOIL to continue sliding down in the near future and reaching the area below $57, at least temporarily. The fair price according to expected supply and demand had shifted to $60 (previously $75), as published in the short-term energy outlook from eia.gov

Don't forget - this is just the idea, always do your own research and never forget to manage your risk!
