OPTIONS PLAY: Heating Oil Futures Break Out
Heating Oil Futures On The NYMEX Breaks Out Above Resistance This Morning On Solid Chinese PMI data According To Marketwatch And A Weaker USD (11/1/10).
MY ANALYSIS
Fundamentally, in my view HEATING OIL FUTURES could rally for 2 basic reasons:
1. Possible Additional U.S. Dollar Stimulus By Fed, Which Could Bring In Inflationary Tones
2. Potential Increased Crude Oil Demand from Emerging Economies Like China, India, and The Middle East
Technically, I see HEATING OIL FUTURES breaking out above resistance which I define as both the 9 day Moving Average and the 20 day Moving Average. I also see this market breaking out to the upside of a very sloppy SYMMETRICAL TRIANGLE pattern which, in my view, is bullish. See daily chart below.

All known news and events have already been factored into the price of the underlying commodities discussed. The limited risk characteristic of options refers to long options only; and refers to the amount of the loss, which is defined as premium paid on the option(s) plus commissions.
