Stock technicals clearly show a break-out. That's a catalyst I was looking for.

But key to story isn't anything that nefarious. I love WTI because of fundamentals.

WTI is the cheapest oil/gas stock anywhere. Trading at $35,000/BOEs/d it is less than half of any other major producer.

Look at stock charts for DVN, PXD, SM, XEC, XTO, etc. - all off substantially off bottom and at 2007 levels. WTI would need to double to catch-up with peers.

WTI is also "oily". The others are more "gassy". Right now oil is making $$$ and gas is terrible still.

WTI's large "danile Boone" oil field has come on stream and will boost Q4 production (and cash flow disproportionately because of being oil).

I say WTI will be >$20 in near-term.
