O’Hare: How I'm trading crude amid the Iraq turmoil

219 views

Crude oil continues to rise this Monday and Steve O'Hare from First 4 Trading is seeing support for a continued upswing. Over the weekend, insurgents in Iraq extended their control of key areas of the country. 

Although the supply of oil has remained unaffected by these attacks, the threat of disruption to supplies remains. Based on the current geopolitical climate, Steve is favouring a dip buying strategy, predicting a move higher.

Steve is looking to enter the trade around USD 106.00 or USD 106.50. His targets for the trade are: USD 108.50, USD 109.00, USD 111.00, and USD 111.50. A stop could be placed at USD 105.25.
