Pair of the Day
- Pair: OXY - RRC
- Sector: Independent Oil & Gas
- Spread 23.97
- Ratio: 1.47
- Correlation: 0.94
- Spread range: 22.00 - 23.20

This pair is clearly trending and thus you should only be interested in trading it directionally from the long side. This would mean a buy on OXY and a short on RRC. Trendline support is coming up nicely from the bottom and the RSI2 is lookng oversold.
