Crude Oil Futures Spread Betting - 02 February 2012
Brent was in demand yesterday in line with the equity market rally and the black gold continues to be well supported by geopolitical tensions between Iran and the West.
The improvement in manufacturing data across the board also kept the commodity in demand. This morning Brent crude oil is at $112.20 and support and resistance is seen at $111.00 and $112.80 respectively.

Crude Oil Futures Spread Betting - 31 January 2012
Concerns over Iran’s nuclear powers were alleviated in yesterday’s session as the International Atomic Energy Agency began its visit to the Middle Eastern nation, showing that they’re not completely closed off to dialogue.
Something else to consider in the day’s decline was risk adverse investors finding safety in the US dollar, which in turn helped drive crude prices lower. At time of writing, Brent is up on the day at $111.62.
Crude Oil Futures Spread Betting - 30 January 2012
Even with a weaker dollar, energy investors couldn’t keep crude oil prices up and instead followed the slumping equity markets.
A slower than projected growth for the US economy, the biggest oil consumer, heightened concerns that demand for black gold could drop and this showed in the trading session.
On the other hand, the 2.8% growth was the fastest in more than 18 months and the US economy is expected to surpass Europe this year which helped limit the losses during the session. Brent is a little softer this morning at $110.90.

Crude Oil Futures Spread Betting - 26 January 2012
The weekly oil inventories report from the US Dept of Energy showed a mixed bag, with crude stockpiles rising higher than estimated yet gasoline inventories dropped against expectations of a rise.
On the back of this, the crude oil spread betting market remained around par until the Feds statement that interest rates were staying low for longer, which caused a slight rally, but only enough to push prices marginally higher. At time of writing, Brent crude trades at $110.41.

Crude Oil Futures Spread Betting - 24 January 2012
The main driver for crude oil prices yesterday was the announcement that the European Union will ban Iranian oil imports from July 1st.
This comes in response to Iran’s reluctance to halt its nuclear program and has put the energy sector on red alert. The Middle Eastern nation has threatening to close the Strait of Hormuz which allows around 20% of global crude to be shipped through.
The other factor driving prices higher was the weakening US dollar, meaning that crude looked like a good bargain to potential buyers. Currently, Brent trades up at $110.92.
Crude Oil Futures Spread Betting - 23 January 2012
Alarm bells were ringing on Friday after the International Monetary Fund cut its forecast for this year’s world economic growth. This led investors to believe that demand for energy would plummet, sending the crude oil spread betting market through the floor.
No support was provided by the single currency either as there was no deal reached on the Greek’s debt burden.
At time of writing, Brent crude is up slightly on the day at $110.23 as the EU announces that it will enforce an embargo on Iranian oil from the 1st July.
