This is going to be a fairly meaty post… China inexplicably stopped importing somewhere around 5M-6M barrels per day and have left their refineries sit idle since about the time that Trump visited Xi earlier this year. If I were a betting man, which in a sense I am because I am holding predominantly Canadian heavy crude producers, I suspect that Trump made a deal with China that involved an exchange for influence over Taiwan. If you had to ask me about timing, I don’t think China will hold off imports until midterms and instead Trump asked them to postpone refinery runs until after July 4. Trump’s a two bit flimflam man and the 250 celebration is his big show. I think there is incontrovertible evince that Trump and Bessent are tag teaming oil futures… The key number from the WTI Physical contract: - Non-commercial longs: 360,524 contracts. Non-commercial shorts: 230,223 contracts. Commercial longs: 919,786. Commercial shorts: 1,090,512. The concentration data is the really interesting part: - For WTI on ICE, just 4 or fewer traders hold 35.2% of all short open interest. Eight or fewer traders hold 48.5% of all short open interest. - The CFTC knows who the 4 traders are holding 35% of short interest — but won't publish it. The SEC enforcement chief quit rather than drop cases touching Trump's circle and the CFTC chair is a Trump appointee. - There’s no other way to explain both WTI and Brent being in contango during the greatest energy supply shock in history without it being a coordinated institutional short. Here’s some more salient info.. - SPR at 340.3M barrels — lowest since July 1983 - 412M barrel coordinated release across 32 nations — sovereign governments confessing physical shortage in real time, not traders being bearish - Global stockpiles drew at a record 4.8 mb/d while prices returned to pre-war levels — the arithmetic doesn't reconcile with "demand destruction explains it" - US distillate/gasoline stocks at multi-decade lows, Cushing near operational minimum; US domestic low prices cannot be explained by Hormuz dark-fleet uncertainty - The SPR release was structured as an exchange (repay 2026–2029 at 18–24% premium) - Some loaded tankers have left Hormuz, but you can check Rory Johnston twitter posts for daily tanker movement and there’s been nothing out close to prewar traffic nor anything close to balancing the 1.5B barrel deficit - Brookings calculates all global supply buffers (Russian/Iranian floating storage, IEA releases) exhaust by July 9 — almost exactly when the August WTI contract expires (July 22) - War is still a slow boil; Israel is still in Lebanon, and recently attacked Syria; there’s was also some shit that went down in the Iraq green zone near the US consulate that no one seems to be talking about - Oh, and Russia is getting around 1M barrel per day less out from all the Ukraine attacks which alone would justify some risk premium - Considering all of this, WTI and Brent are basically flat from where they were before the war started and Exxon is trading at mid-January prices Sources below… Positioning reports… - https://research.titanfx.com/cftc/cot-nyoil Look below under “concentration of positions”… - https://www.cftc.gov/MarketReports/CommitmentsofTraders/index.htm Current contract contango… - https://commoplast.com/news/details/19356/#:~:text=This%20shift%20confirms%20a%20near,and%20%2480%20by%20year%2Dend. Also, this is an article from three months ago about Japan considering shorting oil to stabilize the Yen… - https://www.reuters.com/world/asia-pacific/japan-shifts-focus-oil-unorthodox-scramble-talk-up-yen-2026-03-26/ This is all to say, oil prices do not make sense at the around or below $70. You can tell by the refining crack spread where refineries are making almost $70 overtop of the crude price. That’s insane. The crack spread to turn a barrel of oil into product is basically as much as the barrel of crude itself. All of these anomalies scream to me that Trump panicked about high gas prices interfering with his big 250 celebration and made a deal with China about the future of Taiwan. There’s some undeniable facts, but a lot of my reasoning is admittedly circumstantial.
Need WTI to drop $10 more before I can maintain an erection for longer than 45 seconds.
they are attempting to flush the strait and gulf of the trapped oil, because it is oil on the water. It is now july. This is a peak energy month, and august is high too. every eia report has been that we are drawing down more oil than expected. cushing oklahoma where WTI futures are priced is at operational tank bottoms. They need oil. Now. Not in 60 days when the MOU "results" in a peace deal. They need oil on the water, moving right now. The SPRs can only provide so much rate. Even if they have a big depth, they can get out run by demand.
fun fact: there is an suspiciously large amount of WTI call options for July 16th. calls on US-Iran war. puts on SPY.
Calling out tickers again 😂 WTI CRUDE - $69, and heading down. This is less than it was prior to the start of the Denuclearization of Iran! DJT
Market's have largely moved on from the war trade. WTI Crude under $70, it's over. We have 70 years of market data results following wars and military operations. There's some reports out there from BofA, Goldman etc. They already knew. You're trying to be overly logical that isn't how markets work. Markets want clarity. You can believe Trump or not all you want. The market decided. Not you, not me.
Cmon WTI drop to 66, I know you want to fill that gap. Then let's moon!
I've been long deferred WTI's since December of last year. I did my part.
Why WTI not $0 yet I am shorting it along with the treasury
WTI was just too low. There's absolutely no way the Lutnick leeches could resist
Look at the short interest https://www.marketbeat.com/stocks/NYSE/WTI/short-interest/
USOIL - CFDs on WTI Crude is $70.25/barrel as of 1:26PM USC 6:00 6/27/26
The war is already priced in. All of this is basically all priced in. They aren't doing anything full scale and its all now for show. Things are winding down. SPY, WTI and else dont give a shit anymore. The supply shock is figured out and most people adapted.
WTI is 69. War implies real fighting. US got their ass handed to them and lost.
WTI -2% instead of -4%, “pumping”, uh OK.
As I have said to delusional oil bulls. The fair price for oil is actually in the $50s, because the rubber band response to high oil prices was OPEC dissolving (major bear), increased ex-OPEC production (medium bear), Iran sanctions removed (medium bear), Chinese demand not coming back because it had anticipated war and over-filled SPR (minor bear). Just yesterday Iraq is considering leaving OPEC if the oil producer group does not allow Baghdad to significantly increase oil production, following UAE. This means the economic downturn for ME actually forces everyone to increase supply. Now that Hormuz is open, albeit with some fees, Hormuz flows wouldn't actually come back to pre-war levels, but it doesn't matter, because bypass pipelines can be used in conjunction diverting oil flows away from Hormuz. The elastic effect will actually be prices falling LOWER than pre-war levels, likely hitting a bottom at $50. **I actually predicted the top with this analysis oil oil at fair value of $110**. WTI top was $112. Now the bottom prediction is $50. This is also backed up by IEA data where supply glut will actually be MORE than pre-war levels in 2027.
If you ignore the spike starting with the war, the 1 yr high for WTI is 70 and we're at 70 now, so still 'high'.
WTI was sub-60 before the Iran war, we are still 20% higher
If you're curious about oil... Cushing Oklahoma facilities hit their operational tank bottoms two days ago. WTI futures are based off of this facility
Holy hell WTI at $69. Hormuz week over week tripled. Man oil doomers really got it wrong badly.
does anyone know what conditions need to occur for backwardation on USO to stop holding the price up? if USO perfectly mirrored WTI, it would be at 88 right now and my puts would be much happier.
I'm not sure Treasury ever got directly involved tbh. What the administration did though was coordinate with deep pocketed entities who placed huge puts on oil futures right before Trump (or a news organization provided with insider info) released a post or made a comment that caused algos to immediately sell oil. As a result, this combination routinely drove oil prices down 5, 10, 15% in a single day. This manipulation also led to many bullish traders getting fired as their positions were liquidated, leading the whole market to become structurally short. Right now short interest in the oil market is literally at all time highs even with oil in the low 70s and trading volume is a fraction of pre-war levels. They've driven all the bulls out and are still pushing the price lower, as seen by Trump's post today sending WTI and Brent down more than 4%. As a result of this jawboning, US stockpiles have fallen to the lowest level in a generation, US producers haven't meaningfully increased production and investments by the industry which have been languishing for years, aren't coming. That means even larger supply losses in the years to come from the US, eroding our energy independence and ceding those barrels to other countries who will happily pick up the slack.
WTI oil today - 69.9 WTI oil start of war - 71.2 Peace deal status - Who the fuck knows everything is a contradiction
Yall may be each talking about something else. There are crude futures prices for standardised WTI and Brent, and then there are spot prices for each of the many specific types. The paper futures market can be manipulated and disconnected from reality, while the actual spot prices of physical may be very much higher.
at some point in the next week there will be a big dump on WTI going to either 63 or even as low as 55. The set up is there.
WTI Crude already at 72 is pretty bullish, especially after everything that happened over the weekend. I think it's clear the markets *want* oil to drill, easing inflation, even if it doesn't make perfect sense from a supply/demand/geopolitical perspective. Anything close to 65 within about a month would be really solid and might actually ease us back into the 1 hike or even no hike territory despite the BofA panic.
WTI having some mid-sized swings tonight. Idk what it means, but it's happening.
WTI is almost $60s bro. I'm not saying it's an awesome thing but you have to at least brace for the possibility of total US surrender and humiliation.

Low key sucks to be oil bull because they are still bombing the strait and WTI is sitting at 77 lol
Wait until after june 22nd to see if the current WTI oil contract explodes at expiry and takes the economy with it. Then re-evaluate.
Considering one of the largest SPR release, I am honestly surprised at WTI green
USO has some serious catching up to do with WTI 😡
WTI 75 tHoU sHaLL nOt pAsS
$75 WTI is wild. I say this as a market bear, goes to show all those doomers that said futures few months out were wrong. And that usually oil traders are pretty smart. They're hired by the biggest companies in the world to manage their inventory. Unlike equities that can get detached from reality, competitive commodities are usually unbelievably efficient at incorporating known information. Close to impossible for retail to gain an edge.
Dude we lost over a billion barrels and we are at $75 WTI nothing is real lmao
WTI is headed for contango, which means the market is no longer pricing a supply shock. I can’t believe my eyes.
I'm gonna need WTI crude to at least be half of what it is right meow. Thanks
Litterally everything i said affects oil even WTI wtf r u smoking my dude
none of what says matters. the etf is supposed to track WTI prices, which has fallen further
WTI gonna go negative with zero ships traversing the strait yet meanwhile SPY rallies 1 day and then has to burn theta cause omg what if the fed raises rates 25bp one single time later this year?
yeah... now I need USO to be at the same price before war too. dumbass etf is supposed to track WTI...
Oil is cooked. Look at the December WTI contracts.
WTI going down is great cause that will restore demand and drain reserves faster
I made a lifetimes worth on the way up. I told that sub the timeline to go long was months ago lol. Being long past the literal top of the cycle margins is legit insanity, even if the fucking world is ending. USO was pricing in a level that would see catastrophic demand-side destruction if WTI actually rose to those levels
Big buy wall at 80 for WTI... idk if we will see enough selling to break through without another news announcement.
no u https://app.hyperliquid.xyz/trade/cash:WTI
It's gonna be a great week 💪🏽 ***The Tokyo Stock Exchange's Nikkei 225 index rose to an all-time high above 69,000 points on Monday as investors reacted to the news of the long-awaited peace deal between the United States and Iran. The benchmark surged more than 3,600 points, or 5.5 percent, at one point in the morning session. Meanwhile, crude oil prices tumbled after US President Donald Trump's announcement of the opening of the Strait of Hormuz. Benchmark WTI futures traded in New York fell to the 80-dollar per barrel range at one point, a drop of about 5 percent from last week.*** 🤙🏽😎🤙🏽
Dumbest etf ever… it barely drops and WTI is getting back to normal levels… it should already be at 100!
Going all in on August WTI at $79. Down 14k so far, but I don’t think 🥭 can hurt me anymore. Feel like peace has to be priced in at this point.
WTI below 70 ain't happening for months pal wake up
Need to open at 760 to have any chance of this not getting sold off . WTI needs to go below 70 for the 4-5% gap up at open on stocks
Okay oil analyst, when will the traffic resume to the point that buyers will have enough offers to negociate lower price ? Someone need those futures contracts delivered and will pay for it. They can't wait 6 months to see if prices can drop further WTI bouncing 80-90 for months is more likely than dropping back to before all the damages done to ME (and Russia) productions and unlilited traffic through soh Oil companies are gonna print so much in the meanwhile buybacks and dividends increases will have boomers fund flocking with H2 uncertainties For Monday calls on semis, was trying to look further than 2 weeks my bad
WTI was 29 cents away from $70s oil. Basically back to prewar levels. Wild.
If $80 WTI is the new floor, long XLE after the initial sell off could pay nicely Q4'26 Q1'27 Hope it dives hard to load cheap
Yeah, if that etf followed WTI more closely, it would currently be around 105, and you would have had a chance this week…
Thursday? No chance. WTI down to 83 and USO still above 125. That etf has very sticky pricing, even if oil drops to 75, USO will still probably be at 110.
I wish I was in USO. I’m a proud WTI futures bag holder (much much worse).
Why not just go long oil? WTI is like $85 when we are 4 months into the closure of Hormuz and global SPRs are being drawn down like crazy. Why not just buy some Canadian oil sands producers which trade and a discount to the US? The US needs heavy oil for their refineries but produce very little heavy oil themselves.
As USOIL/WTI and the CL's fade - US10Y is going to be the main mover for this market. We can thank 🥭 for a perfect setup for Q3-Q4 2022 V2.0
Another big dump on oil, it’s looking like WTI will go into the 70s. Anyone know why?
No shit. Yet the algos sent WTI and Brent futures down 4%
WTI committed seppukku on nothing is funny
Do a fake deal Get 100 bps of rate cuts Come back 90 days later with nato Send WTI to 150
WTI fell at one headline although nothing changed and we will run out of SPR soon
bought a 100$ put on WTI before working out and came back with 2k
>USO seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing primarily in futures contracts for light, sweet crude oil, other types of crude oil, diesel-heating oil, gasoline, natural gas, and other petroleum-based fuels. From Yahoo Finance. It's not 100% WTI.
Long USO Sep - Dec calls. Fake announcements of peace for last 3 months haven't materialized, so why would they do so in the next 3 months? Meanwhile, Cushing will hit tank bottoms in early July or sooner, causing panic and WTI price increase. Heavily-shorted USO and general belief that US president will work something out. Iran knows its best option is dragging its feet and waiting out the situation. Meanwhile, the world's oil reserves get to miniumums and oil prices increase.

USO is an ETF that tracks West Texas Intermediate (WTI) oil. Big funds think oil price is going down and they have sold over 100% USO shares short plus a shitload of oil futures short. Opposite is about to happen and oil is going to up
Woke up Talks going well Everything is green WTI is <90$ A great day for bols
Remember, he said we're oil independent and we don't need their oil and Europe needs to figure it out. I personally am shocked WTI isn't $1m per barrel and keeps floating around $90.
I'm a bear but I think Trump is too scared to have WTI above $100.
Operational stress levels hit in July. The current WTI front month contract is a July delivery. We might be early, but we might also be perfectly positioned for a spike in the July contract before expiration.

3-10 ships per day went through the strait hugging the north coast. It's a very small additional buffer merely delaying the inevitable by days at best. WTI is low cause strategic reserves are flooding the market, that's all there is to it. By July we're in a 7mb/d deficit.
I should’ve put everything on WTI but I only put a bit. 13% gain
$WTI just buy oil at this point
WTI Oil chart is hilarious. Any time it hits 90 it gets immediately slapped down with a vengeance. Someone working overtime here.
In short CPI result will get better soon. WTI crude getting lower and by end of June Iran deal is done
>When it comes to the US, we know that their massive domestic production and reserves alone are enough to push them toward near- independence regarding the local import and export of all energy and energy derivatives. US is still dependant on crude import which are priced on an international benchmarks (WTI), of course there's always been a local discount since Canada can't get most of it's oil out. But that changed with the TMX pipeline and its expansion. If for some geopolitical reason the price of crude stay high, there's a good chance Canada will build another pipeline East, but that would take some years. Anyway, as for the reserves, the oil company are saying that at the pace the US is emptying out it's reserves, we could see some problems as soon as early july, because thought it's got 365mb, not all of the reserves can be draw down as the salt wall of the reservoirs could collapse, and there's some level at which the pipeline pressure could be insufficient to sustain the same drawdown quantity. Is the US better positionned than the EU and Asia in this conflict, yes, is it hurting less, yes, does it mean that it doesn't have an impact on the economy, especially if the situation last for months, absolutely not.
I'm going to bed. I can't wait to wake up finding out nukes are dropping, an oil-consuming kaiju has appeared in the Persian Gulf, and somehow WTI is down $2/gallon.
> US stops bombing for 1 second > WTI immediately drops below 89 Oil to -40 within 2 months at this rate
WTI still pumping.....
Believe it or not, $80s WTI lol.
