I own one share of COP on Robinhood.
I purchased $3,000 of CVX a couple weeks ago.

Anyone know the cause behind this massive oil company rally? Prices are not really up and I haven't heard of any production cuts announced.

Hornbeck is on a heater too, as well as Tidewater, although I think their cash situation raises risk a bit more than Hornbeck's.
I really blew it not wanting to trade during mardi gras. I had about 20 bucks sitting in Robinhood so I threw it on Hornbeck near the bottom but didn't want to pay close attention so I didn't deposit cash to really invest.
Those couple of shares up 55% right now.

Absolutely no idea. I haven't seen much of anything in the news at all. I've noticed gas prices creeped up a tiny bit, but nothing I'd imagine to be causing this.

I'm not real interested in selling at this point. I bought 100 shares at 32.46 2 weeks ago. I bought as a hold.
Posted on 3/4/16 at 2:21 pm to LSUneaux
Bought 808 shares at $36.70. Sold at $41.24. ![](https://images.tigerdroppings.com/Images/Icons/Iconbanana1.gif)

Im prepping for a reckoning tomorrow. I don't see how the upward trend can continue without any kind of real positive news out there.

I don't know what to expect Monday, but I have resigned myself to the fact that I don't know what is going to happen any day.
Whenever I take on a new position in oil and gas, I set up a couple of limit orders. The first sells the stock if it goes up more than 20% or so. The other limit order buys more if it goes down a certain amount. Example Anadarko sold Friday after crossing the 20% mark, helped by lowering my basis when it moved notably lower than my initial purchase price.
These are strange times for oil and gas stocks. Normally I am a buy and hold investor, but the volatility is crazy lately. This trading strategy has worked really well, and I plan to do continue until the long-term view of oil improves.

Me too. COP was fun last week so I sold on Friday because I thought surely Monday would be red. Up another 3% today. ![](https://images.tigerdroppings.com/Images/Icons/Iconbanghead.gif)

I'd be careful if I were ya'll. What this looks like is a short squeeze of massive proportions. The last time we saw a short-covering rally near this magnitude it didn't end well. ![](https://www.zerohedge.com/sites/default/files/images/user3303/imageroot/2016/03/03/20160304_OVER1.jpg)
