Hey! I'm new too!
I think the price will crash. When speculators stop playing the game, the price will return to what the market will bear, rather than what it can be gamed to.

Then after those reserves are gone, the price will creep up again. Any further disruptions to oil supply in the second half of this year (hurricanes in the GOM) and any increased demand will put upward pressure on the price again.
