## DataSnack's read

**Crude's weekly path is mostly noise, so momentum is a weak guide to next week**

Oil's front-month price feeds fuel costs and inflation expectations, so it matters how much recent moves persist. The model's case rests on about 0 of the past two weeks' move carrying forward, giving $86.85/bbl in seven days.

## The numbers

- WTI crude oil future now: $86.85/bbl
- DataSnack's model, seven days from now: $86.85/bbl
- Record: It has no graded forecasts yet.
- Replay on the last 60 days: off by $6.10 against $5.06 for standing still; closer on 5 of 60 days
- Fitted on 249 days of history

## How the model works

Crude is a near random walk over a week, so the model starts from the latest front-month close and lets the data set how much of the past two weeks' move carries forward or reverses.

- About 0 of the last two weeks' move in crude carries into next week's close. DataSnack's author expected 0; the data say 0 ± 0.3. A rough rule.
