I believe all this Iran war is about to raise oil above the trendline in order to dump harder

Fifth wave is about to start !
This was obviously a fibo level and so war had to end, anyone could have seen that.
We are going to get a middle finger pattern soon like previous ones, but this one is clearer.

Crude oil is too volatile for short options, natural gas is more manageable 
Hey OP, sorry i dont get it? How would the global events lead to a rug pull?
Just trying to learn the market dynamics and their relation to global events - curious how would rising oil prices driven by the war lead to a rug pull…
I was insinuating that the big guys conspired with Trump to elevate crude prices ; only to make it fall harder (fakeout).
Obviously , it’s a joke or wait , maybe it’s real; who knows?
Here is your daily dose of conspiracy @zoomtrader
This may be true , in my estimation Crude oil is in a downtrend or at least in a range , countries like US & Russia indulge in war to prop up crude oil prices

Whats your view on crudeoil as I am stuck in a long position.
Why stuck? Exit it as per plan.
I think depending on other people for your positions is dangerous.
Maybe it will bounce maybe it wont, nobody knows.
I have heard that crude oil is a trending instrument.
From chart, its in a tight range after large fall. Not the greatest of signs. Ideally you want quick bounce back.
I have the plan and I am following the same but I asked only because I am new to commodities market. Thanks for your wise words
Good luck.
If plan is tested, then stick to it. Ignore everything else as noise.

- The post highlights a significant shift in oil market dynamics, with a correlation between oil prices and US inventories dropping to zero, while the correlation with algorithmic trading positions (Money Manager positions) reaching all-time highs, supported by data from the Oxford Institute for Energy Studies, which has tracked oil market trends since 2009.
- This divergence suggests algorithmic traders, including Commodity Trading Advisors (CTAs), now heavily influence oil prices over traditional inventory-based fundamentals, a trend backed by a 2024 Oxford study noting the rise of systematic signals like the theory of storage in oil derivatives markets.
- Global events, such as China’s increased imports of discounted Iranian oil in June 2025, may amplify this shift, as algorithmic strategies exploit geopolitical supply disruptions faster than physical inventory adjustments.
