   Meaning that they believe prices for oil and gas has reached a peak and   
   they expect those prices to fall.   
      
   > The part most simpletons miss is they trade by the month.   
      
   Oil contract (and probably gas too) are sold by the month.  The   
   front-month oil contract starts on the 3'rd friday of every month (or   
   something like that) so everybody knows that oil contracts become due   
   around the 22 - 24 of every month.   
      
   And nobody's making money on natural gas.  It's been sitting around the   
   $4 point for months, even a year or so.   
      
   > So what day will oil and natural gas go up?   
      
   Not if the big hedge funds are shorting it, as you say they are.   
      
   > Oil will go up big Friday February the 25th this year.   
      
   So the big hedge funds are going to lose money.   
      
   > Natural gas will go up big on Friday the 25th and on Monday the   
   > 28th this month.   
      
   The heating season in north america is over.  natural gas demand will   
   fall.  Just make sure you come back here in a couple of weeks when I   
   drag your nose through the numbers.   
      
   Natural gas was trading at $3.87 yesterday.   
      
   And by the way, which oil is (according to you) going to go up at the   
   end of the month?   
      
   WTI or Brent?   
      
   Do you even realize that WTI is sitting at $86.16, and Brent is at   
   $102.56?   
      
   How do you explain the gap?   
      
   And you didn't answer my main question -> which oil price is the   
   canadian dollar following:  WTI or Brent?
