New Video....the "Paid Pullback" Strategy

All the stock trading strategies you're using aren't producing the type of results you had hoped, are they? Sure, you thought it would. So called gurus told you how well those strategies performed and if you tried it, you'd be rich beyond your wildest dreams.

But was it a lie? Not totally, no, because some stock trading strategies do work. But those strategies that are producing consistent results are few and far between.

So you'll be happy to know, we have found that "needle in a haystack", And I don't say that lightly. But I just finished watching a trade presentation that I'm confident will make a big difference in the way you trade.

And unlike what you might expect for a strategy like this, you get complete access for absolutely no cost whatsoever.

We are talking about buying your stocks at wholesale prices instead of the retail prices everyone else has to pay. And we're not talking about buying your stock at a lower limit price.

This is part of a series and this video will only be up for about 48 hours.So watch it now....

In his State of the Union address Tuesday night President Obama pledged to keep cutting red tape in the energy sector and to speed up new oil and gas permits, while also announcing the launch of a new oil and gas sector funded Energy Security Trust aimed at developing technologies to help wean U.S. vehicles off oil.

"That's why my Administration will keep cutting red tape and speeding up new oil and gas permits. But I also want to work with this Congress to encourage the research and technology that helps natural gas burn even cleaner and protects our air and water," Obama said.....Read the entire Rigzone article.

Refiner Oil is Cracked Up!

Mid week update from new COT contributor Chris Damas.....

Oil refining is getting more lucrative in the USA..... good for stocks, bad for consumers. Alternatively, most Canadian oil stocks were down today, with below expectations results from Encana and Cenovus.

The theoretical April oil refining crack spreads (assuming all one product produced) right now (WTI over NY Harbor) are:

$37.18 for RBOB
$41.54 for Heating Oil

All the regional cracks we cover are up too –

WTI Cushing over Gulf Coast 211 is $33.40 up $2.05
WTI Midland over 532 ULSD Mid-Con is $36.74 up $2.00
Brent over 321 NYH at $20.10 up $1.49 versus single digits a month ago
ANS (Alaskan North Slope) 321 over West Coast at $25.68 up $1.59

This is a seasonal strengthening with cracks rebounding due to maintenance at several refineries and strong distillate export demand. Closing prices for our stock universe are all up after being up 35% or so since recommending them Jan 10.

MPC $83.30 up $1.63 goes ex 35 cents tomorrow)
VLO $47.29 up $1.05
HFC $56.53 up 40 cents
NTI $30.40 up $1.36 (goes ex Tuesday)
PSX $64.81 up $0.70
TSO $55.37 up $1.30

The P/E multiples on these stocks remain low in the 8-9 range.

Note: US Holiday (Presidents Day) will close markets on Monday. You might want to lighten up on these names tomorrow towards the close. We will have a lot of media attention regarding the anti KXL/climate change rally Sunday in front of the White House.
