I'm in for Nov 1st (Tues)

For the next sweep on the date of $100/barrel should we make it you pay in one penny for every day that you are out by and the nearest bid(s) win (or share) the pot ?

How about this jump?
US$61.29 for August and US$63.65 for February 2006 as at 14:40 local time
What a shame, seemed quite promising, this human species.

PaulS was unlucky with two intra-day highs over $70 and the early Sept. guesses look unlikely now, with the European reserve releases bringing supply onto the market. The 50dMA might provide support at $63 but if it doesn't, $57 look likely in the next two weeks
