01[11:53] {Threei} The dramatic collapse of the Russian Ruble is in sharp focus this morning. The ruble had gained around 8% after the Russian Central Bank raised rates by 650 basis points to 17% from 10.5% on Monday afternoon (early Tuesday morning local time), but those gains vaporized as USD/RUB shot up to 79 and then settled around 72.80 in mid-morning trade. The ruble is now down by more than 20% against the dollar on the week and down by 56% YTD.
01[11:54] {Threei} rare case in history when aggression is being punished this quickly and severely
[11:55] {dino} nice to ser
[11:55] {dino} see
[11:55] {RonS} thank the Saudis
[11:56] {dino} indeed, for once they went against opec
[11:56] {RonS} and fracking
[11:57] {dino} yes, unfortunately, that too
01[11:58] {Threei} I think Saudis had no choice
01[11:58] {Threei} they tried to cut production back in 80s
01[11:59] {Threei} it didn't help the price but they lost sales and markets to those who were continue selling
01[11:59] {Threei} so this time around they simply decided to keep the markets
[12:00] {dino} big question is, for how long? been looking at jan 2015 calls uso, oco
[12:00] {dino} jan 2016 i mean
[12:01] {dptl} trailing to .16 bhp
01[12:02] {Threei} don't know dino... as pure trading maybe, but long term oil doesn't look good to me
[12:04] {dino} yeah, time is the big question, thats why i'm leaning towards buying lots of time
[12:05] {dino} taking an hour break
[12:05] {RonS} besides, ese says oil is dead...after all, his wife has an electric car
01[12:06] {Threei} and students want the same

[12:35] {dptl} no go rig...
01[12:37] {Threei} stop trading everything in sight
[12:38] {nemo} Hey Padawan, I'd be careful shorting the oil complex today, you're likely better off finding a place to get long
[12:39] {nemo} after so many days down, the odds are beginning to work against a short play
[12:39] {nemo} notice uso just bounced at vwap
[12:39] {cosmo} the oil drop, like others in the past, is just a conspiracy to kill solar and such...
[12:40] {nemo} means value is being found there, hasn't been the case
[12:40] {nemo} whatever the reason, respect the price action
[12:40] {nemo} imo
[12:40] {dptl} bhp forming c&h looks like
[12:40] {JoebiWan} thans nemo. thats why i asked
[12:40] {JoebiWan} thanks
[12:47] {dptl} hal 39 short?
[12:48] {dptl} nah
[12:48] {dptl} stepping out for a bit
[12:51] {nemo} see the action in rig Padawan...choppy
[12:52] {JoebiWan} yeah, time of day too?
[12:52] {nemo} yep, but looks like oil is trying to make a bottom
[12:52] {nemo} sucks not having Les to pick on
[12:57] {nemo} VXX
[12:57] {nemo} if it holds support look for .50 break
[12:58] {nemo} there ya go
[12:59] {nemo} set stop below .50
[12:59] {nemo} .85 target
[13:00] {nemo} arguably support @.42
[13:02] {nemo} http://goo.gl/svva5r
01[13:03] {Threei} (US) White House Press Sec Earnest: President Obama will be signing the spending legislation when the final version is complete; also intends to sign Russia sanctions legislation - Administration still has concerns about the current sanctions legislation; Pres Obama likely to sign the sanctions bill before the end of the week- Will not speculate on the SPR; strategic petroleum reserve is not intended to to impact the price of oil
[13:03] {nemo} possible repeat of the setup
[13:07] {nemo} spy coming into vwap
01[13:14] {Threei} In a statement to Business Insider, FXCM said:
01[13:14] {Threei} "Please be advised that that most Western Banks have stopped pricing USD/RUB. As such, FXCM can no longer offer this instrument to our clients and will begin closing any existing client trades in USD/RUB effective at Noon EST today, December 16th, 2014."
