Oil could drop more now because it fell through the $40 support. Maybe into the 20's before a bottom. So strange. It was $140 just a few months ago.:shrug:

I paid $1.55 for gas today. I don't remember when it was that low. Maybe 5 years ago or longer?

Sub $40 oil screams a buy on DXO.

If it hits 2.50, the last 20% of cash I have will be going in.

Then I'll lose all the fun of buying and selling. :)

Here's some guy's opinion on another forum. Is this the way you see this too?

I got into it today at 2.8

Reasoning: When oil was at $145 DXO was at $30
Oil is little below 40, DXO is at $2.7

I do not see oil going below $25 - the downside is probably 25-30. However, the upside is unbeleivable. Opec wants it at $70, and they will do everything to get it there, even cutting output even more than they just did in January if they do not reach $70.

WHen oil gets back to $70, that translates to DXO going back to $14.00 which is a 5 bagger from here.

The risk to reward is too great not to jump in.

I jumped in with half i can afford, so if it dips lower the other half will be thrown at it :)

I love this logic,in fact this is how i have been at least ahead of the game so far(on paper),

look at it this way if oil were to fall to $25 a barrel then that would translate into DXO at 1.70 , are you prepared to take a -37% loss verses a 500% gain, i think that this is by far the best odds you will get.

take F for example, even with the bailout, F will only really reach its high of 7 to 8 dollars, whereas GM could make it back to the high 30's that might get u 10x back, but F will at best get ya 6x.

right now i think that GM is by far (odds wise) the better investment, even if you are day trading and want to hit it quick, GM has by far a higher ceiling.
just my 2 cents

This is nearly identical to the logic I posted here a few days ago. My average price is 2.69 currently. I had an order in for the majority of my leftover cash at 2.50, but I don't know if it triggered (not at my home computer). This would bring me down slightly to around 2.65 average price.

I think this guy's math is a little off. If it tracks truly as a double long, then $70 oil would equate to 4-bagger from $35, not a 5-bagger.

But I ain't going to complain about that, either.

Note: I do not plan on holding on the sideline all the way up to $70 flat. I'll be looking for trade ranges on the way up. Currently, I have a sell order for 25% at 4.00 on DXO which would roughly be $52 oil.

But I may be making it too complicated. :)

Yeah, if Jack were to wear a button down dress shirt and a tie, but it could be a dead look alike
