USO Update

Crude oil (USO) has accelerated its recovery from Thursday's decline and is showing bull phase on both Person's Proprietary Signal (pps) and the fast stochastic.

The parabolic sar never left bull phase, despite the velocity of Thursday's price drop.

See my analysis from this morning for a detailed discussion of crudes merits and demerits.



Note that the pps is prone to a phenomenon known as "ghosting", where it can disappear int he middle of a trading day. So, although it's visible at 3:23 p.m. Eastern, that's go guarantee that the signal will hang around until 4 p.m.
