| LONG UCO Entered $41.20 | ProShares Ultra Bloomberg Crude Oil | EIA Petroleum Status Report at 10:30 AM ET Wednesday is the primary intraday catalyst for crude oil (CL).

WTI 200-day MA at $64.08 acts as pivot (FXEmpire). Secondary catalyst: Jul CPI at 8:30 AM ET — cooler print weakens USD, supports oil.
