WTI is moving up... could re-touch dreaded 100$... the BS deals no longer hold power on the market like in the past :/
The article is so ridiculous. WTI briefly surging to $110 while dozens of vessels are attacked are surely a sign that peace is imminent /s
WTI was never 111. Quit spreading fake shit you’re complicit
WTI almost back up to $100 BTW. Wiping out the whole day's price shift
Market waiting to see if $WTI is going to hold onto some of today's discount or not. Oil sold off but also seems like no news for it so spot prices already rebounded about halfway.
WTI stabilizing here would be nice but it looks like it might rip back up and undo all these stock gains
WTI down 3.3%, SPY up .6% in 20 mins. feels like its Trump TACO insider trading time
Anyways. WTI gonna go nuts, OPEC chain was cut at ARAMCO.
remember to only invest in BRENT oil. trump can ban crude/diesel exports at ANY TIME and crush the price of WTI oil and your USO and USL calls are worthless. brent oil will moon whether no matter what he does
I tried EFT with WTI Crude Oil 3X Lev USD. Bought in when it was around 50 Euro. It kept dicking me around for weeks (decrease, decrease, rising, rising right slightly below the amount I bought in, back to decrease, decrease. Got so frustrated I sold with below one Euro loss (when it kept edging me). Left me shaken that I couldn't get a win with something as solid as oil. Checking the EFT now, it's around 70 Euros. Now I am convinced I'm a curse that sinks stocks.
Also, I’m not going long on anything on a day when WTI pumps 2% and already above 100
WTI is over 100 and is around the price that trump usually drops some fake news to send it back to 90
Houthis are fucking shit up again. WTI back to $103 and Brent back to $110. 10y bouncing back up into the 5.15% zone. French bonds up 50 bps in a month (and spread with Germany bonds is growing, which could lead to a spiral). SPY - up 0.50%. It could be a lot worse.
🛢️ The Houthis claim they hit a Saudi Aramco site, an oilfield, and the Riyadh and Abha airports (Reuters, about 12:41 PM ET). Damage isn't confirmed. This goes further than this morning's Riyadh scare because oil sites are now being named. So far oil is mixed, with WTI up 1.5% and Brent flat as of 1:06 PM ET. SPY: a mild headwind that turns into a real risk to the bounce if the damage is confirmed or crude spikes. Reuters via Devdiscourse · Oil move on X Heads up: viral X posts saying Trump announced a US-Iran settlement are a recycled June 11 video from spam accounts. No wire service has it, so don't trade it.
Energy markets once again pumping after "peace deal imminent" headlines overnight dropped them 2-3%. These manipulated headlines are having less and less of an impact on energy markets which are increasingly focused on actual events. WTI now higher than its Friday peak, gasoline and diesel both green on the say. Brent lagging but extremely close to $110. All while energy equities continue to sell off lmao

If you don’t see sub $90 WTI do NOT go long on an illusion of a peace deal…. J/S

🚨 Trump said the US may need to strike Iran's Pickaxe Mountain nuclear site, according to Reuters, citing his Newsmax interview. It's a direct US escalation threat on a Friday, so there's weekend gap risk, and WTI just hit a session high of $101.02. SPY: risk-off. Expect pressure into the close as traders cut risk before the weekend.

See the problem is you're being too logical. See WTI mooning to 98 today, PPI scorching but SPY is green? Market says AAPL has pricing power so while they're not hiking prices too much, whenever they need to they can force growth when everything else is going up too.
Oil/WTI is trading +3 green, yield are red but ticking towards green, when gold ticks lower the S&P will not ignore it. Picking up Friday puts ITM to swing it
Anyone know why Brent and WTI are tracking differently today? WTI up almost 3% while Brent is just over the flatline.

WTI is not meaningfully down, nor is Brent, ships literally being sunk in Hormuz, but in the last week gasoline near my house is down bigly, around $0.60. What manner of fukery or manipulation is going on here exactly?
WTI grinding higher too. Damn, you AI bros gon be sore asses.
>>TRUMP: WILL SAVE ENERGY TARGETS IN IRAN FOR LAST Won't be long now. WTI must go to 150+.
You guys. I told you about AI. I said you should have went long oil producers and refiners when WTI fell back to $68 June or July, to which I was called a ghey ber. I warned you about inflation and interest rates and AI company debt levels. I warned you about the circular financial and homosexuality adjusted EBITDA. But you didn’t listen. You just chased meme after meme. Beyond Meat, GameStop, AST, Micron, etc., etc. it’s one thing if you got in early, but 90% of WSB continued to YOLO at the top. You guys never learn. Funny part is, another 10-20% pullback, and the AI trade is starting to look compelling to me.

**🔴 OIL SECURITY ALERT — Iran Expands Shipping Threat Beyond Hormuz** **October 13, 2026 | 9:35 p.m. ET | Risk: HIGH** **Material new development:** A Reuters investigation published at 8:06 p.m. ET reveals that Iran has adopted a coordinated strategy to intensify attacks on commercial shipping and expand operations beyond the Strait of Hormuz. **🚨 1. Iranian officials reveal expanded maritime strategy** Two senior Iranian officials told Reuters that Tehran intends to sustain pressure on global oil prices through the November U.S. elections. **New findings:** Iranian operations are expanding toward the Gulf of Oman and waters near Qatar and the UAE. Maritime-security analysis indicates attacks may already be occurring across this wider area. A U.S. military official independently confirmed that Iran has begun using small boats as surveillance platforms to identify maritime targets. Reuters reports at least five maritime incidents in the preceding 48 hours, although these overlap previously reported attacks. One Iranian official warned that a more comprehensive closure of Hormuz could follow. **Verification:** The tactical change is corroborated by a U.S. military source. Iranian strategic intentions come from anonymous Iranian officials and are not independently established. No complete closure has been confirmed. **🛢️ 2. Physical supply implication**s **Affected infrastructure:** Maritime export logistics and tanker transportation. **New confirmed production outage:** None. **New confirmed refining outage:** None. **Barrels per day disrupted:** Not quantified. **Expected duration:** Unknown. The geographical expansion matters because vessels avoiding Hormuz could encounter security threats on alternative routes. **📈 3. Brent and WTI rise in Wednesday trading** Reuters quotations at **8:30 p.m. ET Tuesday**, corresponding to Wednesday morning in Asia: **Benchmark** **Price** **Change** Brent **$106.58** \+0.8% WTI **$94.94** \+0.9% Brent–WTI spread **$11.64** — Both benchmarks advanced as traders weighed Middle Eastern supply risks against expectations of additional Russian diesel exports. These are intraday quotations, not settlements. **📊 Trading implications** **Market** **Assessment** **Brent** 🔴 Bullish risk from expanded maritime threats **WTI** 🟠 Supported by international supply uncertainty **Inflation** 🔴 Potential for persistently elevated fuel and freight costs **Treasury yields** 🟠 Inflation pressure versus safe-haven demand **Equities** 🔴 Increased downside risk for transportation and rate-sensitive technology **Bottom line** **The significant change is evidence of a deliberate expansion in Iran’s maritime targeting strategy—not merely another isolated tanker attack.** No additional independently confirmed Saudi crude-production outage, Russian refinery shutdown or Ukrainian petroleum-infrastructure loss was established in this check. **Overall assessment: 🔴 HIGH shipping risk. New physical supply losses remain unquantified.** Source: Reuters — Iran shifting tactics to step up shipping attacks, October 14

Watch WTI open negative on fake peacefire news
*"Effective immediately, there is an ENERGY CEASEFIRE in the War between Russia and Ukraine. Both parties have agreed. Do not break it! Thank you for your attention to this matter."* \-President 🍊 Brent/WTI drops...50 cents.
i’m a 47‑year‑old who hit the same crossroads a couple years ago: after my partner left, i stopped pulling the daily coffee line on the WTI graph and went lean. i moved almost all of my trades into long‑dated LEAPS and a wheel strategy that auto‑sells cash‑secured puts at a set threshold; i write out my entry and exit rules in a spreadsheet and only scan the book once a week or twice a month. the mental puzzle—choosing the right strikes, doing the math, building a clean rule set—still keeps me sharp, but i’m no longer staring at the ticker for eight hours a day. if you’re feeling the time‑pressure shove, try that approach: keep the challenge but let your day do the other stuff.
WTI is red but still $90+ Brent is over $100, tiles are green and the only thing keeping it together is Gold +50. IF that drops much we’ll be red
People have been saying that for 7 months and yet, here we are. Diplomatic efforts are dead in the water, shipping rates have gone parabolic, SPRs are at record lows and draining futher, all with WTI at $90 and Brent over $100. And that's not even touching on refined products which are in an even bigger crisis, which itself has constrained crude demand keeping a lid on oil prices. The war isnt going to end tomorrow and even if it did (also depends on *how* it ends), the lost production (more than 2 BILLION barrels at this point) and depleted inventories will keep prices elevated for quite some time
We have been seeing VIX collapses every Friday for forever. Two solidly red days in a row in tech (including a big one in a lot of names today), yields clearly meeting resistance and topping out, and WTI appears to be losing 90 again as we speak despite it all... I would say we are primed for a solid bounce tomorrow.
"Brent crude settled down 0.4% at $100.20 a barrel, while WTI crude fell 1.3% to $88.28 a barrel" WE ARE SAVED!

Oh I'm well aware. The world has rapidly depleted its petroleum inventories and *strategic reserves* just to buy more time for Trump to NOT resolve the crisis. Brilliant work, no way this will have any profound and lasting consequences. Surely Iran will get bored and give up any day now. $90 oil is a fucking blessing for energy equities, not that this market cares apparently. Most are priced for $70 WTI or less. Better sell your single digit pe energy company with a 15% FCF yield and 8% dividend yield to FOMO into tech companies with triple digit pes that are already up 300% ytd.

🔴 **10Y: 5.333%**, +4.7 bps — this is the big problem. 🔴 **20Y: 5.754%** 🔴 **30Y: 5.715%** — Reuters says it briefly hit **5.7041%, a fresh 24-year high** earlier. 🔴 **Brent: $101.75** — inflation pressure remains nasty. 🟡 **WTI: $89.88** — basically flat. 🟡 **DXY: 101.98**, +0.46% — stronger dollar adds another headwind. 🟡 **VIX: 15.77**, +5% — still *low in absolute terms*, but moving in the wrong direction. TLDR: Calls
# Fuck yeah, Brent and WTI! 🥰🥰🥰 DIELSEL TO $10/gal.
