"... the position adjustments that the OPEC decision forced upon traders ... it leaves the market exposed to profit taking."

First of all, what the fuck does that even mean? Were the "position adjustments" that they bought futures at a higher price based on a prediction that now turns out to have been wrong?

And second, there seems to be an implication that being "exposed to profit taking" is a bad thing for the market. But wouldn't someone have to be taking that profit? And wouldn't that someone be in the market? So who the fuck are they taking profit from?

Christ, it's almost like they don't want us normals to know what's going on.
