Closing Trade-NOT FOR NEW SUBSCRIBERS

Expiration Date: November 18, 2016

Portfolio Weighting: 10%

Number of Contracts = 75 contracts

As I suspected, the credibility of the OPEC Algiers production capping agreement is about zero.

Saudi Arabia, Iran, and Iraq are all ramping up production going into the November 30th deadline; the track record of compliance is not great.

I am therefore going to take profits on my position in the United States Oil Fund (USO) November, 2016 $12.50-$14.00 in-the-money vertical bear put spread.

On the back of this morning?s 2.1% plunge in crude, we can realize 77.7% of the maximum potion profit in the position.

Leave it for others to hang on for 19 more trading days, through the presidential election, to realize the last 22.3%.

Good luck doing that in the oil market.

With this trade, 13 out of the last 14 trade alerts issued by the Mad Hedge Fund Trader are profitable.

The concept behind this trade was really very simple.

This was a bet that the United States Oil Fund (USO) would not rise above $12.50 by the November 18th expiration date, a new high for 2016.

An agreement to cap production at the Algiers OPEC meeting delivered a monster 20.40% short covering rally in oil. The quotas will be fixed at the next OPEC meeting in Vienna on November 30th.

However, not a single person in the industry believes the agreement will be finalized or, if finalized, honored. Cheating inside OPEC is legendary. The Saudis know this.

Therefore, I thought oil would put in a short-term top, and then trade sideways to down for the next month.

In addition, the $51/barrel I saw on my screen was going to stimulate a ton of new production from US frackers.

Thanks to rapidly accelerating technology, American drillers can turn oil production on and off faster than at any time in history.

Also to consider are Iraq?s military victories against ISIS, and the outbreak of stability in Libya, both of which will generate substantial new oil supplies.

I think the bear market in oil is over, thanks to a recovering global economy. To read more about this, click Oil's Long Nightmare Is Over??

I just didn?t think we were blasting though to a new yearly high in oil in the next 28 trading days, given the OPEC dynamics. Hence, the trade alert.
