On the technicals side, Hedge funds and money managers continued to buy petroleum futures and options during the week to Oct 19th since the traders are expecting that oil prices will climb further in near future. Most of the support came from creation of new bullish long positions that outnumbers the new bearish shorts, Indicating funds are bullish over oil prices.
