Oil prices have risen for six consecutive weeks, something that has happened only five times since 2010 and generally means a continued increase in oil prices and stocks.

Oil prices have risen for sixth consecutive weeks, notching an 11% gain for crude during the rally. While a pullback could occur — the oil trade was close to flat on Tuesday as overseas supply threats balanced higher U.S. inventories — recent history suggests there are more gains to come, not just in oil but also in stocks.

While oil has tended to pull back slightly the week after a six-week period of gains, two weeks later it starts to move higher again, and a full month later oil locks in additional gains.

WTI crude has traded higher more than 80% of the time and tacked on an additional average gain of more than 2.5%.
